Default throttle body problems i need help

so i have a 2001 s4 avant and just recently it went into limp mode with all the dash lights coming on. the code was p1171, my throttle body part. i did not want to spend the $900 on a new one so i had it rebuilt by a reputable shop in california. it was installed this morning and to my surprise on the way home it started again like i had never touched it. i am at a loss...

might want to get a statement showing exactly what they replaced

the thing they have to replace isn't that expensive I don't think
