A lot of you people out there are looking this for a fix a quick fix on your vehicle you need to listen to the man how heExplains everything it’s not just throw parts on vehicles you have to test things test wires and have the knowledge I listen to a lot of the comments and a lot of these people don’t have no common sense if you don’t know what you’re doing don’t touch it take it to somebody knows how to properly diagnose the problem don’t just throw parts at it or might be ThisThrowing parts at the vehicle never fixes the problem you have to properly diagnose the problem if you don’t know what you’re doing dn’t touch it I listen to a lot of the comments and a lot of these comments are the stupid ass people this man is talking about a Vehicle stalls out check your alternator check your idle control motor check your variable timing check your crank sensor if people don’t realize you’re turning the steering wheel putting a motor and a strain the idle will not come back upThis man is talking about an engine stalling out intermittently and one comment on there I replace the shift solenoid and it’s doing the same thing people don’t listen how is the shift solenoid that makes the transmission shift have anything to do with the damn motor stalling out people don’t listen everybody’s in a hurry to get it fixed they want to throw parts at it but a bitch and whine when it doesn’t fix the problem if you don’t know what you’re doing to a vehicle don’t touch it take it to a technician they will properly diagnose the problemNot you wanna bees out there at throwing parts at all there is tricks and trades that we know how to fix the problem and the symptoms but you have to have common sense didn’t know how to work on a vehicle and people don’t have that today

I will say that sometimes throwing a cheap part on a vehicle can be the least expensive way to diagnose or repair a vehicle. I do it from time to time and I know it rubs folks the wrong way but if $20 saves me three hours of diagnostic labor time I’m good with that. When my guess is wrong sometimes I just have to suck up the cost of a part and find the actual problem. I realize it can be frustrating when people don’t take the time to listen and learn but it’s also up to us to help instruct and inform as long as they listen and are willing to learn. And for that I appreciate your input and caution for those in the thread who sound lost and confused. If I listen closely I can hear their desperation. Blessings to you!

I have a 2009 Envoy. The car was going into limp mode with a code P2135. (rough idle, stalling, ..... 2 times same day). Replaced the throttle body with a new Bosch unit for the 2009 Envoy. The old TB was fairly well carboned. I performed the relearn, it is idling at 700-800 after about 5 seconds after starting. However, when you start to press the accelerator, the car leaches because the engine jumps to 1200 RPM. You just have to barely move the pedal for this to occur. If you are moving and stop, wait 5 seconds, the idle will return to 700-800. If you are in park and you place the car in drive, sometimes the car will increase to 1200 rpm as noted above. I did not have this issue with the old Throttle body. I have driven the car 50 miles with speeds of 50 mph with many stops and go, I am not seeing any improvements. Any ideas? I can't find anything on the internet describing this issue I am experiencing when replacing the throttle body.

When I place it in park or neutral the vibration stops. It’s not the motor mounts because they are completely intact and not worn out. I just replaced the throttlebody with a new one and the the part you replaced in this video and it still didn’t fix the issue. There are no vacuum leaks whatsoever. What else could it be? ***I also purchased a new fuel pump and will be installing it tomorrow, but I thought I would ask you if it could be anything else before I did that, not sure how responsive you are to your KZbin but I figured I’d give it a shot, but I have to put the pump in tomorrow.***

Hey Car Doctor. Great stuff. I have a Sienna 2007. It looses power going uphill, sometimes in freeway if going above 60 and very few times on road. On Freeway also stability control beeps and then trac and vsc turns off/ on and stops beeping. Not long ago change tires and also took it for an aligment. I changed oil and oil filter as well as air filter and checjed for leaks. I cleaned the trottle (without removing it) and clean the sensor with the proper spray. It does not have any check engine light. Mechanic did a dianostic, but said only run it for a few minutes on the road and nothing happend, but said the steering wheel module needs to be replace according to the computer. Said it cost $2,250. + labor. Not sure he took the time to test it right. I was hoping van just need it new spark plugs since never been changed since it only has 70,000 miles. Can you share your toughts on this one. Thx in advance.

The Car Doctor So I hooked the new battery up, turned the key and it started right up. Stalls 10 seconds later. Starts up again, then stalls. Now won't start at all but cranking. I'm lost. Fuel pump maybe or starter?

Just the one coil but I'm expecting the other soon. My last vehicle had the 4.3 V type vortec and it also blew coils (and when they blew the truck would die on the road (far from home) and I'd need a tow truck. At least the TB will sorta limp to the shop on its own) every other year needed the complete wire/cap/rotor set replaced ($$$).
