Engine trouble codes

Good day all,

I'm having a heck of a time with engine codes (P2135,P2176) constantly reoccuring. Of course causing reduced engine power. Not so good on the major highways. Help please! I changed the throttle body already. Thanks!

Many thanks for your pics and advice, This must be a handed down problem from the cobalt, G5 and who knows what else. I guess I'll start here. Trying to keep the faith in North America vehicles.
