Danny , your an amazing humble patient technician 👨🏻🔧 for the 8th gen civic . I’ve learned so much from you because of past videos
I followed your procedures for replacing transmission external oil filter, cleaning throttle body, and idle relearn on my wife’s 2011 Civic EXL-Navi Coupe. It was real easy and the car runs great now. Thanks so much for posting these videos.
Appreciate your gratitude, more videos coming soon
What is the fan on and off? Any sign?
Thanks Mr. Danny for this on-line session. It worked for my car & that's really good 👍🏻🇲🇾😃
My experience about radio code for Honda. i just call for local Honda dealer, they asked my CRV VIN Number, when lady checked online , she told me radio code... NO Charge ... I live in Canada. Thank You Danny for teach Honda maintenance !!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for sharing, not all dealers are that helpful 👍🏼
I love these 8th gen videos, no one else makes them like you.
I appreciate that, hopefully it’s a good thing
Thx Danny, at the end the ac, the shifting worked and the idle stayed around 600-700 rpm.
I've been having these exact symptoms lately. Thank you for the informative video!
Appreciate your comment, glad it helped
truly amazing and HELPFUL 🙏
Glad it was helpful!
Danny please do a video on how you keep the engine bay looking like that. It doesn't look "cleaned" it looks factory new. Just amazing.
I can do a short video on that, look for this soon
Wheeeee! My Accord idles smoothly again! I did not bother cleaning the throttle body or anything but I probably should. I don't have to turn off the AC when idling anymore!
Great to hear it helped
Hi Danny. Should this work for a 2013 Honda Civic 1.8 liters. I'm from Chile, my car was made in the states. Thank you
Any idea or solution for my problem, when engine is in idel by turn off the AC the engine power is doing down and Comes back to idle.
Great stuff
Appreciate you watching
I have a 1.6 i-dtec... what's the correct rpm to hold it at. Redline is around 5000 rpm
Hi Danny I've been watching your videos for about a week now .... informative! thank you
I have a question will this technique also work on a 2012 Honda Civic sedan 1.8 liter? Thank you
Yes it should be the same process
hey danny, do you think you could do a video on how to change the windshield wiper motor on a 8th gen civic, i know there are some other video out there but you really know what you are talking about.😊
I’ll add that to my video list, thanks for the suggestion
Hello. Thanks for your content. I'm from Mexico. I followed the procedure, but in my car, the idle speed only reaches 800 rpm. I see in your car and in others that I have seen, that it drops to between 600 and 700 rpm. Do you have any idea what it could be?
Good one Danny.
Thanks Greg, good to hear from you
Thank you very much. You are the MAN !!
Hey danny, i am not sure if this is the solution to my cars issue, i have a 2007 civic and its giving me the throttle error sometimes and it goes into limp mode. I changed the throttle body and it didnt show up for 8 days but its showing again.
my Honda Civic fd drops 600rpm when I turn AC on but returns 800 rpm after.is that normal? Thanks
Does it have to be cold?
Cant get it to worl any ideas
Hey Danny, could you tell me what kind of average fuel mileage you’re getting on your car? I just picked up a used 2009 mileage I’ve been averaging 26 miles per gallon or so mixed highway driving I thought I’d be getting closer to 29 or 30 MPG. A little disappointed by this, is this Norm? I’ve changed, spark plugs, air cleaner, oil, transmission fluid, etc. going to do the MAF sensor next. Anything else I should be checking?
I do track my mileage 25 worse, 32 best
Hey Danny. Great stuff my 2006 Honda Civic been malfunctioning, for.example sometimes It won't go past 3,500 rpm it will just keep it there. I've switched the VTEC Selenoide and it worked fine for a couple.of miles then started again..any solutions?
Check engine light?
Hey Danny. I cleaned my MAF And MAP sensors on my 2012 civic and it’s idling high in the 2/3K RPMS. Does it need a idle relearn procedure if so can I use this method..
Yes do a idle relearn,what did you use to clean your sensor
Also recheck your work, sounds like you might have a vacuum leak
I am following you from Cairo, Egypt. you are really awesome . Keep making translated videos. I want to ask you: I cleaned the throttle and the engine rpm was higher than 2000. And I have it Leakage at the bottom of the air box. Will it work if you learn it doesn't have to be fixed?
You will need to fix the problem before a relearning will work
@@dannysdiygarage. Should I wait when the car fan starts for the first time or the second time?
ا شادي لو تكرمت عاوز اتواصل معك
Hello Danny, do you know if this procedure applies for a 2012 accord V6? Thank you for your help!!
@@GG-un5wk this procedure should be the same
@@dannysdiygarage thank you very much!! I’ll try it this afternoon.
Hi so I’m having trouble with the fan not cycling at 3k it remains on until you let off the pedal. Any ideas? Thanks. 2012 tsx
Check your coolant level and ensure it’s topped off, Make sure AC and defrost are off as they automatically turn on and sustain fans
If you have a push button start (2013 Accord) how do you turn on ignition without turning over engine for the first 2 seconds?
I think u just press it not hold it right?
Don’t press the gas pedal just click the button
I replaced the alternator on a 08 honda oddysey and now it has all the warning lights on and wont go past 3000 rpm. It sat for 2 months before i could get an alternator also. Do i need to do this or do i have another issue. I also replaced the vvt solenoid since that was the initial problem leaking onto the alternator. Any help would be appreciated thanks.
Checking for codes might be your 1st steps, the information provided gives me no clue what to advise, sorry
Did you fix it ?
Thanks!
Welcome!
I have a question in my 2007 civic fd manual. My idle normal rpm is 800, and when I sped up like 40mph then putted the gear into neutral, my rom stays at 1.4k stable until I fully stop. I’m on neutral and I’m not stepping up the gas but my idle stays at 1.4k while the car is moving. And also, then I let go of the gas, my rpm goes up first like around 2k rpm before it goes down to 800rpm. What should I do?
Hard to give advice when you can’t check the car, but, Start by cleaning throttle body, do a reset and relearn, if your car has a throttle cable check the idle air control valve
@@dannysdiygaragethank you🙏🏻
@@dannysdiygarageIs this idle relearn thing going to work on my 94 civic?
hi. would this steps work for a honda civic 2000?
Give it a try, it won’t hurt, clean the throttle body also
My friend has the same problem and a light bulb I tried it and it didn't work I put it into the malfunction detection device and it said that the air sensor was damaged, but I am sure that it is working well Because I tried it in another car Do you think what should I check, because there are very few specialists here? Please help me
اذا وصلت لحل ياريت تشاركه معايا لان عندي نفس المشكله
Thank you 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾💯💯💯
You’re welcome, appreciate your gratitude
maybe close the hood?, heat will acumulate faster this way i think
Should I wait when the car fan starts for the first time or the second time?
1st time should do it, I went twice just to be sure
What screen do you have for that car? And do you have a video on it?
Yes, czcams.com/video/FT9ssLo7zvA/video.htmlsi=ErTStKtcxM7vaNCy
Does this also apply to the Honda Element?
Yes, I have this video for a Honda Element also
I did this and my idle is exactly at 1000 I did it twice and can’t get it to come back down to where it was
Is there a way to do this if the fans don't work?
Yes, the temperature needs to get up to 212, fans coming on just verified this, if you want to fix your fans, I have a full video on this issue, you can watch it here, czcams.com/video/Uw4lLvyFOns/video.htmlsi=DTszruOlp6499Vcn
Does this work for all hondas? Like the odssey as well?
It should be the same
❤❤❤
Appreciate you 👍🏼
Hola dany, quisiera saber si me ayudas con una duda, mi civic 2006 lx tiene las revoluciones muy bajas, entre 500 y 550 en ralentí, a veces hace como un temblor y suben, me podría funcionar este procedimiento?
Yes, clean throttle body and do a relearn
Gracias por responder, pero ya limpié el cuerpo de aceleración y también el reapendizaje de ralentí, pero sigue igual, podría ser el tps sensor?
Is the engine light on if so what code, if not check for vacuum leak
De que manera verifico si hay fugas de vacío, no tengo ningún código, he pensado en cambiar el cuerpo de aceleracion
No, ya lo limpie y siguió igual, creo que puede ser el TPs, porque solo cuando está caliente lo hace
does this work on manual civic? instead of putting it to Drive mode, i'll just put it to first gear right? thanks Danny!
Yes it works on manuals, keep it in neutral or in no gear
@@dannysdiygarage thank you ☺️
It worked! Thank you so much for this Danny😊
Appreciate the update
Is this method applicable on ek civics?
Yes
Hi Danny. Thanks for the video post. My 2008 Civic GX only idles poorly in the morning, and when it is below 70 or so degrees. I have to let it idle for 5-7 minutes and it sputters, which can be heard at the exhaust pipe. I then have to shut the car off and start it again. The sputter stops and I can drive the car. The check engine light flashes when I first start it. If I don't warm it up, the engine rpm won't go past 1500 rpm and its impossible to drive the car. It also throws the 302 misfire code for the number 2 cylinder. Will this reset help or is there something else that is causing the problem that you can suggest a repair for?
You have other issue, you need to figure out you cylinder two misfire and any other codes you have
I cant tell when my fans r on with all that engin noise. Is there another way to tell when the fans comes on & off?
Ask a friend or pay close attention
I love it when my subscribers help others by answering questions that other ask
I'm going to record a video and find out that way.
I sat with the door open and felt the heat gush with my left hand when the fans came on and blew hot air out from underneath..
Does this work on a 07 honda odyssey
Should be the same
How many miles does your civic run in a full tank?
I average 35 mpg sometime 37mpg, I drive 62 mile per day 5 days a week
When the engine is running, there's vibration, especially the front passenger. The vibration goes through and some particles start vibrating under the door windows. Could it be the throttle body?
Could be that or engine mounts
@@dannysdiygarage thanks
I assume it’s the same procedure for a manual transmission?
That’s correct
Will this work on a 10th gen civic?
Yes should be the same procedure with the same results
Does this work on newer models like 2019?
Yes
@@dannysdiygarage imma try this out today thanks Danny💯
Don't they have the radio code on a sticker on the glove box door? At least that's how mine is.
All depends on the technician who did the pre delivery inspection, they all do something different
I try cleaning throttle body and sensor and re learn it but idle it still low. Do I need to replace the sensor
No
Re doit
Unrelated Danny but how about a video on the Civic timing chain/belt. When and how to change it.
Timing chain should last the life of the vehicle, if mine ever needs to be replaced a video will certainly be produced
My fans didn't stop after the second cycle. Maybe it's the weather.
My 2010 civic won't idle. Starts everything runs about 5 seconds dies. If I give it gas it runs but sounds like it's backfiring. I ran it at 3k for 2 cycles of fan and it just died when I went to idle? Please help
When did this start happening? What’s been done so far
@@dannysdiygarage I have replaced starter fuel rail Injectors battery cleaned 02 sensor cleaned throttle body then replaced throttle body new spark plugs changed the things that go on the spark plugs. Pulled cam shaft post. Sensor cleaned it (it did have a lot of oil on it) inspected crankshaft sensor cleaned it. I did unhook ecu and immobilizer for about 10 min hooked both back up. Starts every time runs 4 or 5 sec and sputters and dies. I checked fuel pump with method from your channel read steady entire time power was on. I really need my car it's also my home I've tried alot of things but it hasn't gotten better
No codes come up no green key code
@@dannysdiygarage after it starts if I give it gas it will run sounds like it runs really rich made 02 sensors smoke and turn very black sounds like backfiring out exhaust or rumbling kind of
Did you check the airflow sensor? Any codes? Unplug the airflow sensor and see if it runs any better
Do this on a warm engine.
From my experience, I get better results on a cold engine, however the manual doesn’t specify cold or warm
@@dannysdiygarage I wouldn't be revving, start/stop on a cold engine.
@@joeyyung911 doesn’t have to be stone cold, just not at operation temperature yet👍🏼
Does anyone tried this method? Please convince me 🙂
Doesn't work. Just use a reader with the proper capabilities.
It works, follow the video
Danny, more element content please!
Yeah on the way, I’ve got two videos working on the Element
