It's mounted on top of my throttle body (unlike just about every picture of a 4th gen max vq30de I've seen :( )

Shady pictures aside, I really don't understand why most Craigslist/ebay ads seem to be written by 5 year-olds. I will pass an ad written like that, no matter how good the deal seems.

This is true, my post was wrong to call it a pot, but the inherent weakness and lifespan is the same. Friction wears down contacts.

Potentiometers go bad. I build and circuit-bend audio gear and tbh I'm impressed my car's volume knob hasn't gone out in 12 years because any other pot I use as much has.

Personally I'd yank a HU...
