Do you think is the Throttle body

Do you think is the Throttle body
I have a '02 9-5. It has begun to sometimes shut off when in Idle and then labors to start after the car shuts itself off.
Also, while driving it feels like it lunges forward (accelerates).
I took to my mechanic. He suspects the Throttle Body. But no code has been thrown
I have been reading other posts and it seems like it could also be the CPS or the DIC.
BTW, I had had the battery and alternator replaced about 2 weeks ago. And the fuel pump a few weeks back.
Thanks for any help.

It sounds like the throttle body is in limp home mode. It's very easy to reset. I had to reset mine all the time so I took mine apart and cleaned it with brake cleaner. The cover is tough to get off because you have to pry two or three tabs open at once.
