Thanks for this comment! My hyundai sonata 2014 got the same issue of funny Rpms when idling and I understood that idle has three important parts to check/clean which are: Engine Air filter and mass air flow sensor (MAF), throttle body and IAC (idle air control) sometimes the PCV valve also increase the RPMs when it's clogged.

I just did this to my tired old 09 Sonata. Symptoms were a rough running, stalling engine and a check engine light. I forget the code #, but it tripped from the MAP sensor. My only deviation from the video instructions: I could not get the wires disconnected so I left them connected and gently turned over the throttle air bore for cleaning. It was awkward but I was able to do the cleaning without breaking any wires. I also disconnected the negative cable on my battery before I began disassembly. Thanks to this great video, I'm back to a smooth running engine. Hope this is helpful to someone.

Great video! My Hyundai dealer did this when they cleaned out the GDI system on my '13 Sonata . As retired tech they were gracious enough to allow me to observe the procedure so I could do it myself next time. I was worried about messing up the calibration of the throttle body, but you put that fear to rest. Thank you!

I can't say enough for this SIMPLE PROCEDURE!!! I have a 2010 Hyundai Tucson Limited 2.4L and this FIXED rough idling and the sensing mechanism "searching" for the right air-to-fuel ratio!!! The Technical Service Bulletin I found pertaining to the procedure I followed is: TSB "10-FL-009 2.0L AND 2.4L THETA ENGINE ETC THROTTLE BODY CLEANING". Gas mileage range registered by computer for a full tank prior to this procedure was about 230 miles. Mileage range registered by the computer after this procedure was around 317-320 after a fill-up!!! AS A NOTE!!!, in the TSB it was stated at the conclusion of the cleaning process: "Without starting the engine turn the ignition key ON for at least 10 seconds and then OFF for at least 10 seconds. This procedure allows the ECM to automatically learn the throttle valve position. Throttle Position Learning Enable Conditions that must exist for learning to take place: • Battery > 10V, • Engine coolant temperature >5.3C (41.5F)" --- Hopefully this info helps more people!!!

I do have a question: I have seen people from other car shops stating you cannot touch the insides of the throttle or the calibration setting will be gone. If you happen to touch the inside of it ( like you did on the video) you will need to get the acceleration of your car manually calibrated (probably by the car manufacturer's local retailer or a specialized service car shop). So the question here is did you have to work the calibration out once you finished doing this procedure you explained? I have a Kia sportage 2015 and I'm looking to fully understand the right way to get his done before taking it to the car shop (I'm still not sure I can do this myself even when I previously serviced other old cars I had in the past) Thanks!!!

@@2carpros @2CarPros I have a 2009 Hyundai sonata 2.4 cylinder and I replaced the alternator. Fairly easy job. But after I replaced it I started the car up and went for a ride. Everything seemed fine until I came to a stop sign and as soon as I pressed on the brake the car stalled. Not only does it do that but when the engine is cold the idle looks good but as soon as it warms up the idle drops down to a low 400 to 500 rpm and if I rev it up it will stall when idle comes back down. I had none of these problems before replacing the alternator. I did not touch any vacume lines while replacing the alternator. I'm totally baffled. Before I start replacing things I figured I would try and get some help first. Also I get no codes.

BHARATH V R cleaning the buterfly/s on ur throttle body can cause a lot of issues if ur not careful. If u over clean it u run the risk of removing the sealant between the butterfly and the housing of the throttle body wich in turn creates a vacuum leak wich will cause the car to idle higher due to the ecu ( engine computer ) compensating for the extra air entering the engine. With the butterfly in the closed position u shouldn’t be able to see any light passing through it If you hold it towards the sun or a bright light. When ur car is idleing and ur foot is not on the pedal air enters the engine through what’s called and iac valve ( air idle control valve )
@jiggydrift5 жыл бұрын
Louis: TPS sensor ( throttle position sensor ) usually located under ur pedal or at the throttle body itself. Easy to change and inexpensive, however I’m not sure whether u would need to calibrate the sensor once fitted so the sensor knows what is 100% open throttle and 0% closed throttle
