P2176=Throttle Actuator Control System - Idle Position Not Learned
Did you use all you old sensors,or is some of them from the new engine,I would swap out the IAC sensor or check for wires not hooked up.
If it can't relearn to idle the Idle air control might be different then your old one,but its not registering with the computer

Two trouble codes p0128 and p2176

Po128 is that the engine has not reach operating temperature in a calculated time frame. Most likely cause is bad thermostat or low on coolant. P2176 is the throttle position sensor has lost its learned value. Throttle bodies with electric motor controls need to know closed position to maintain proper idle speed test sensor for proper voltage signals to power control module . This code is only tested once per ignition cycle.

I recently did a scan on my engine and multiple code came up. Can you help me find out what they mean? (p01516, p2101, p2119, p2176)

The letter p stands for powertrain, codes are as follows:
1516-Throttle Actuator Control Module
2101-TAC Position Performance
2119-Throttle Closed Position Performance
2176-Minimum Throttle Position Not learned
All the codes pertain to the Throttle Actuator Contol Module. If you are having driveability issues, you may want to look into replacing the TAC.
