Thank you for the video!! I believe my throttle body is brand new but I just washed my engine, And everything you described in your video is what's happening to the car now.

[@JesusFreak_247]

How do you wash your engine?

[@kornaguilar4718]

@@JesusFreak_247 at a "self wash" Places, I've wash the engine before, (I think that was screwed up the coils Last time), Generally, it's okay to wash off your engine, But you're supposed to cover certain things, I didn't do that this time.

[@loreadaauto]

Thanks for sharing this informative video about bad throttle body symptoms! Your explanations were easy to understand and I now have a better understanding of how the throttle body works and where it's located. The symptoms you discussed were helpful to identify potential issues and when to replace the throttle body. Keep up the great work!👍

[@dalewilliams8001]

Thanks for the info. My 2009 Nissan Altima does not have symptom 1 (engine light: no). Symptom 2 yes, hesitation to move, intermittently. It's been doing this off and on for about a year now. Symptom 3: no-no rough idling; Symptom 4 no, no stalling; Symptom 5: no, no going into limp mode; Symptom 6: no, it always starts just fine. So, my 2009 Altima only has symptom 2. Thanks again.

[@maniacslap1623]

But did u get it figured out?? Same boat here and guess what? 14’ Maxima. It’s usually after I’ve driven a while. And all this shyt started with a misfire in cylinder 4 lol Let me kno fam!!

Accurate asf mine doing all these things

[@Vijay-xd9is]

you hit every single problem that I have. I have to add that it only happens when I drive car hard and its hot.

[@skeetrix5577]

my 2016 Kia Sorento has this issue and is currently in the shop now. fortunately it's covered under a warranty I purchased with the car. the engine light came on and it's in a "limp/home/reduced power" mode which made driving on the highway super dangerous

[@jiggygino2855]

Clear and to the point. Great video

Just took one off a 02 buick century with about 270,000 miles and it was very dirty and gunky and had all these symptoms I've replaced 02 sensors coil pack ignition module spark plugs and wires tps sensor IAC valve and map sensor so hopefully this solves the issue

Getting a misfire at idle and at load when accelerating or pulling off from a stop. Cleaned my ethrottle body and its still doing it

[@damonsgirl7928]

2013 Ford Fusion: So a check engine light flashed onto my dash after the car stalled a few times but still had power..( Minutes before I had just filled my tank). Anyway, I was able to drive it to my mechanic who I've never had a problem with. He kept it over night, then called and said he had clean my throttle body, which he said was stuck open and that everything was fine. He charged me $145 and I thought everything was fine. That was Tuesday. I drove it hope which is only 3 blocks from my house. So I go to Walmart yesterday (Friday) which is about 8 blocks from my house and the same things happened but worse. This time car stalled, NO Power , a WRENCH light is on and one of the AIR BAG lights is on. I tried to drive it a few more times but same problem stalled, no power, wrench light, air bag light. I parked it for the night. So my question is: Is it possible that the mechanic just cleared the Code for the check engine light and charged me the $145? or Was cleaning the throttle cable a temporary fix and He really should have replaced it? Was it something else and my driving it caused more damage to the transmission, emission system or engine as a whole? Why the heck would one of the air bag lights suddenly come on? I took it back so I'm waiting for a reply I just wanted some opinions. Thanks.

[@onlythetruth883]

Thanks a lot. How about extra revving when idling? And excessive fuel usage?

[@easyautofix]

Is the engine light on?

[@shrinivasjawalkar2352]

Dude my car just had this problem like I drove the car for about 1 km to the gas station and then I filled petrol and start the car but the engine was revving itself in that condition like there was not even need to press the accelerator to pick up the vehicle just release the clutch and it will work like I have pressee the accelerator later on the same thing happened when I reached at my destination and turned on the car after 2 hours then I did was I popped the hood and poured some water on the engine block and you know that water evaporated which means the engine was overheated.

[@tedwu9354]

I had the same symptoms after cleaning the throttle body. It was revving randomly when put in park for a minute. Also car lost power randomly. I fixed it by replacing the throttle body. If you want to clean the throttle body, use a rag instead of spraying directly. Problem arises after spraying directly into the throttle body.

[@nivarison2852]

I cleaned mine and it did run better but I think the throttle body needs to be relearned because it still runs ruff but not as bad as it was

[@benndarayta9156]

Isn't carburator cleaner not recommended to clean Throttle body cuz it might damage it?

[@ehtcom]

Thanks for the video, my only gripe.... It's revolutions per minute. Not revolutions per minutes. Singular, not plural.

[@ashl3324]

Thank you for this!!! My vehicle has been acting up off & on for 2 years now. Nobody can figure out what’s wrong because it doesn’t do it consistently so the dealership never sees it. I am wondering if it’s occasionally getting stuck on the open or close. Usually it stops idling low and rough when we push the gas while it’s in park.. maybe that’s forcing it to open?

[@ebidfadul7517]

The video is very helpful with me Thanks 🙏

[@awildstrongmonappears6770]

If my car goes into limp mode while I am driving, but never while at idle, is it more likely that it’s my mass airflow sensor?

[@barbellsandwindmills]

Could a dirty throttle body cause engine sputtering, rough idle and fast intermittent sputtering around 3rd gear or 3k RPM ?

Electronic Throttle Body(ETB) Is it supposed to open when trying to start the engine or stay closed? My ETB is staying closed when I’m trying to crank my car.

Closed, iac will supply air

[@Mooseheadreactions]

So when you start it and it’s above 2 rpm and then after idling it goes down what could it be

[@essence2302]

Great to the point explanation. Is it better to clean it out, or replace that part on a 20 year old Benz that still runs good?

[@easyautofix]

New is always better but if you are on a tight budget then cleaning could work.

Started my car after a few minutes months of the year not driving it. Put the car in reverse and pressed the pedal but nothing happened. Decided to press a little harder and the car accelerated so hard. Put the car back in drive and it accelerated so fast without touching the pedal. I put the car back in park. Now each time I start the car, the engine is revving high like it wants to accelerate on it's own. What would cause that?

Hello! I have the same car! It’s a beast! I would first check the ball joints!!!

[@eimantasme]

Mine gets stuck for some reason at certain times when you repeatedly press the gas pedal. It fixes itself once in a while, but sometimes you have to shut off the engine and once again start it, but it still pops up. Pretty sure, it’s the problem of a throttlebody. It’s old, I have cleaned it, but it doesn’t help.

Ok so I got a 16 Genesis coupe 3.8 and any suggestions would be appreciated. But I have a P0507 code popping up at idle it bounces slightly from about 900 to 950 if that but when I drive and it is manual but say I just pop into neutral and start to coast or come to a stop the rpm’s drop to about 900 then rev up to 2000 then right back down. I checked for vacuum leaks clean multiple sensors around the intake and throttle body cleaned the throttle body twice and nothing. I think it’s the throttle body but it doesn’t have a lot of build up even when I cleaned it first any ideas

[@VqLyfe]

[@yarymmot3931]

I’ve cleaned my throttle several times now. The first time I had a check engine light. The second time no check engine light. Now I’m having a crank but no start. Does a dying throttle body always give a code?

[@thunderthumbz3293]

Just go to a mechanic.

[@marizzy1516]

Hey there @yarymmot3931 I cleaned my throttle body and I did move the valve quite a bit to clean it as I didn’t disconnect it from the vehicle, now my engine light is on. For yours to turn off, did you completely removed the TB when you cleaned it? I saw somewhere that moving the valve too much can cause the TB to no longer work and need replacing… just seeing how I can fix this without spending $200

[@VqLyfe]

The computer is trying to read the tbs so it’ll act up and not send codes SOMETIME. It could be bad throttle bodies, that’s just what I pieced together with mine. Gonna swap them by tmrw and see what’s good
