What does that combo tell you? I think it's Air metering and knock sensor code.

The gas station I have been going to recently has been adding 10% ethanol.
Am I paranoid or is this a coincidence?

What can you do about this? Will cleaning the throttle body help? I've tried clearing the code but it comes back after a couple of starts.

I tried cleaning out the throttle body and reset but it came back.

Finally I took it to the dealer and they said the throttle body was bad. What I thought but wasn't sure.

The part is $180 with a $40 core exchange from Courtesy for a net $140.

Dealer wants $365 to put it in. Changing it out would have probably been easy but I went ahead and let them do because i was tired of dealing with it plus had to bring it in for the fuel line recall.

Just got it back. So far so good.
