I can see where this could be a problem with electronic Excelerator. But with an accelerator cable throttlebody is very similar to a carburetor. What happens when there’s too much gas. And why is there too much gas and why is there a sudden unintended acceleration? Throttlebody be damned if it’s not defective. It’s got replaceable sensors the AC in the TPS. I think of distinction needs to be made between the different kinds of throttle bodies.
Glad to hear from you mate. Appologies for the confusion. Will put that in mind for the upcoming topics.
I have a 2002 Mitsubishi Lancer Cedia GDI TURBO and when I start it up the revs goes up to 3000rpm on its own and doesn’t come down. What could be the issue with that?
May be a vacuum leak or malfunctioning throttle body
I have a 2016 Ram Truck with a V6. I replaced the throttle position sensor and it keeps giving me the same message on the screen and symptoms as before.
If the car has a wired accelerator pedal, any trouble with the pedal sensor also cause the same issue. a bad motor in electric throttle body also does the same. And also you may need a throttle body relearn.
I went to service my car and my skoda roomster came up with epc light, when i accelerate, the car jerks, shakes and accelerate slowly....i went for a scan and it was an fault code p0038... Should i clean the TB?
The code said here is related to oxygen sensor. Either the wire has an issue or the sensor ...do check the sensor first.
I need help. My sister was driving her 09 Altima and and all of a sudden it started to run so choppy and rough. When I opened the hood the air filter box was open. Should I clean the throttle body?
Yes it will be a good idea to clean TB.
@@dailyhandsdiy also found out there was oil coming out of the head cover. So possibly need to replace gasket. But thank you in advance!
Would this have any effects at faster speeds?
Yes can affect the speeds
My car problem air condition start then rpm down whats problem please tell me
Did you ever find an answer to this question?
My car make vacuum noise every time accelerate the gas pedal. What can that be?
If its a turbo engine, you have a boost leak or vacuum leak in air paths...or if its a naturally aspirated then its a vacuum leak alone.
Thank u
What can i use to clean my throttle body?
Carburettor and throttle body cleaner
I have jetta 2011 2.0 L.... sometimes it runs good....I recently changed spark plugs then it started accelerating good but now it again loose its acceleration...when i go uphill it struggles and downshift the gear....ac also put a lot of load which can easily detect....what can be the cause???? Have 250000 km on it
It could be anything from a simple fuel filter, aged ignition coils, throttle body...do change the filters, check for vacuum leaks, clean throttlebody, check the air intake sensors, check the health of ign coils....
Driving 2010 Ford Fusion on highway when all of a sudden the gas peddle / throttle connection is not there. This can be a real problem.
If it's a Ford 1.4 tdci, sticking egr used to give such symptoms...and iif you restart the engine, it goes away and later comes back all of a sudden. A bad ABS too
While doing a top speed.. On a full accelerator suddenly speed decrease then suddenly it goes normal then suddenly speed decrease again
Might be a throttle body related...
My ford car was running perfect. Then sudenly stayed high rpms and wont come back down. The hotter it gets the higher the rpms. Linkage is all good and throttle body not very dirty. I still cleaned it as best i could and still revs high.
Might be the TPS has an issue
Thanks, once rain stops i will check that next thank you friend
Can bad throttle body cause car not to crank at all ?
Personally, haven't seen one. Should be some other cause.
@@dailyhandsdiy okay. Thank you.
Sounds like my car now. Did you find an answer to what was wrong? Was it the throttle body?
My car will stubble to start then dtall and doesnt start. Car has power cuz i can shift gears and listen to the radio
There are some reasons for the stall after start...clogged fuel filter, bad maf or map sensor, failing fuel pump etc.
@dailyhandsdiy8721 yea it did start this morning but it sounded like it was choking for air. Either way my mechanic has it ajd will hook his reader up to it
Ok great 👍🏼
My car sometimes drive normaly, but sometimes when slowing down the engine switches off, and rpm falling down as I remove feet from gas pedal. Is that mean bad throttle body?
It is vw polo 9n 1.2 12v
@@ivanjovanovic3624Did you find a fix? I have the exact problem. I was at a red light and my car just shut off, before it shut off the rpm’s when to 0 then the car shut. I got the battery, starter and alternator checked out and every was good and healthy. but the alternator showed a ripple voltage of 8v and it’s not supposed to be over 0.5v . Maybe that’s the issue, but i wanna know if u found out something else
@@jaysrt21No I didn't find out what was the problem. But now, for last few weeks I drove slowly and always between 2000-2500rpm and it drives fine without any problem. Still is a mistery what it could be 🤷♂️
@@ivanjovanovic3624 Same, maybe get the alternator checked. also found out on forums that dirty throttle body can build up carbon and cause these issues. I’m actually cleaning the throttle right now, there was black smudge near the back . hope this resolves my issue of slow acceleration and my car stalling randomly
