Another tip is to remove the negative terminal on your battery in some cars so the check engine light doesnt turn on, AND PLEASE PEOPLE if your car uses an electronic drive by wire DO NOT TOUCH YOUR THROTTLE PLATE AND MANUALLY MOVE IT TO CLEAN!!! put in the ignition keys to the on position and have someone depress the accelerator pedal whilst you clean..
clean your throttle body like in the video, change your spark plugs and clean your mass airflow sensor with a mass airflow sensor spray and you should have a smoother drive .
Did this to my camry too, I found that it's best if you unbolt the throttle body from the plenum and clean around the back side of the butterfly valve too.
I have a similar issue with my camry. It starts up rough and when sitting at idle with the air conditioning on, the rpms will sit around 600 and just shake the car. Great video will be doing this fix soon and hopefully will sort out the problem.
Mine shakes awful in reverse and idling in drive at the drive thru rough as..... annoying 😡 done after things already but nothing has worked. Will try this....
@@jadenhurd7187 I did end up cleaning it a year or 2 ago and I completely forgot about the problem. Was definitely a bit dirtier than than rex's one too.
Before trying this please be sure to check to see if any hoses have come of or are cracked. My MAP hose dropped of on my 2.2 Litre 2001 Camry after rough road travelling and idle and acceleration suddenly became erratic. Replacing the hose (after diagnosis by RACT mechanic) fixed it.
My 05 Camry idles rough also when i start it up the rpms will go from 600 -2000 Just turning the steering slightly or running the AC it just wants to take off right away!!
I cleaned mine following this video but now that it’s started my rpms are at around 1500 what did I do wrong? Do I just need to wait longer? Did I use too much?
Definitely install a catch can! I have a 95 Corolla that loves to inhale oil haha and after I put the catch can on the exhaust smelled totally different too. It burns so much less oil now. I usually empty it every 2-3 oil changes and a bunch of nasty stuff comes out. Definitely worth it!! You can keep it cheap if you get an Ebay catch can and stuff it with steel wool. Stuff a lot in there. Then clean it out with compressed air or a vacuum cleaner. Then install it and watch the magic happen over a set period of time :)
you mad man! my car is the same one in the video and I did the same steps then it worked! I unhooked the tube, sprayed the cleaner, and put the tube back on. I tried to start it once, it didn't come close to turning on. I waited 5 minutes. I started it. It was struggling to turn on so i pressed the gas pedal a little bit for a few seconds and it turned on! Coincidentally just like the video baby! Thank you! I'll try to drive the car around and give an update in a little bit. so 2 days after using the car, it struggles to turn on only in the cold mornings (RPM is below 1 when idling). In the afternoon, it seems fine when I turn it on
Dude you should do an instrument cluster swap from a Lexus ES300. It’s not directly plug and play bcoz of connectors, bolt ins are the same, but it’s so worth it!!!
Great video and some good advice. I have a 2002 Toyota Avalon, same engine at the Camry, 3.0 litre V6, although it would of been good to hear if you ever hearing any noises before cleaning the throttle body. I currently have a cracking kind of sound on de-acceleration as soon as I take my foot of the accelerator and at low rev ( 1 - 2). Could this fix the problem? Been hearing this sound for about 20,000 thousand ks by now. I actually thought it would be the power steering but I did a full flush and didn't fix the problem. Car has about 200,004 ks. any suggestions what it could be?
Well done. If the RPM is above 2000 at start, what can I do to lower it to 750-850 as recommended by the manual? It's a v6 98 LE Toyota Camry. Thank you
Take the throttle body out and clean idle air control valve . Fixed my high idle , this week just gone. Don’t forget you will normally have high idle on cold start until car warms up to temp.
How did you get your engine so clean what did you use, also done that part but still got a low idle to kinda a rough idle, summer low idle, cold almost always immediately starts give it gas to until warms up a little what would that be, my camry has 360,000 something miles also
Looking for a fix on my 98 Camry 4 cyl with 138k. The idle goes up and down aroun 2000rpm when I'm driving it ever so lightly accelerating. It also does it on the freeway. Sometimes I get a jolt or two every now and then going freeway speeds. Mechanic can't figure this one out. Cleaned the throttle body and full tune up. any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
cleaned a 2002v6 camry. it first gave start problem,but now it starts but when we put in gear,it dies and car doesn't move at all, . also changed throttle body sensor and battery was changed before changing throttle sensor and before cleaning it..it still throws code for throttle body p0121, any idea please what could be wrong,
Hi Rex , i enjoy watching your vids on SXV20 Camry as i just picked up a 1998 Vienta Grande with 120,000km on. Any recommendation on what to stick the side indicator on front guard back on with as it is loose and keeps falling out? Cheers
Also bro I've done this job many times before (cleaning the throttle body) I suggest you get a tooth brush and really really clean the inside as much as u can, the throttle plate gets heavy and behind it is all gunk that you didnt seem to clean off.. I hope you cleaned it well off camera (: nice video
@@The1Music2MyEars yes you can pass the valve it won't do any harm the cleaner doesn't damage anything , clean as much dirt and oil as you can. Your car will have a hard time to start the first time after this cleaning so give it some gas with the pedal while you turn the key
I've got a 99 camry I'm working on with 250k on it. It will only run at 3k rpm and higher you let off the gas it stall and blow smoke out the exaust would this be the issue?
I have a 99 camry 4cyl and my idle keeps bouncing from around 500-900 just after i got a waterpump and timing belt change not sure if its normal and i just never noticed it or somethings wrong
So when I have to do a cold start and I let my car idle, it’ll make my car shake here n there while warming? Could that be a upper passenger side motor mount?
My 96 Camry I got didn’t start when I first got it I replaced the fuel pump now I can get it to start but it runs eh when the vacuum lines are hooked up right when there hooked up wrong it runs better but then will kill when pressing on the gas
I have a 2009 Camry changed alternator and now it starts right up but won’t hold idle dies out every time. Any ideas on what could cause this to happen.
My 99 camry has trouble idling . Then the battery light pops on and once i turn it off it dies, i bought a new battery and alterntor when accerlating its rough and it shakes really bad . Also when slowing down same result .
Can u do how to fix ignition beacuze I turn on the Camry the on and I turn it off and it’s on Acc and the. I hade to start the car 0.1 the. It’s let’s me take out the kry
Do u know what it means if my 99 Camry 2.2L has a rough idle when I put it in drive or reverse but in park it isn't so bad when I drove it a little it had a small knocking sound also I feel a loss of power with the rough idle.... Do u know what it could be it hasn't stalled out or a low RPM
@@shreda125hilux7 the 1999 and similar years es300 came with dual throttle body. the 2005 es300 do not share the same chassis with the camry es300 solara. hence xv20 and xv30
Burned Aura maybe where you are from that is true, I just searched and saw it, thats amazing! However here in Australia where im from I have never seen dual throttles on any of the es300 models including the 97-01 , they all came in single
The most common reason this happens by the way it's because many air filters are coated in oit's coated in oil and over time that oil gets sucked into the intake
Hi if you have a camry SE 2020 engine light on rpm keeps going up and down please purge the valve . Most people think it is a dirty throttle body .Noo It is not.don't waste your time and money .
Well done. Basics, no extra talking about non-relevant issues. Very good job dude! Thanks! Direct and to the point.... Simplest is always best.
Your videos are making me so excited because I am going to get my grandfather’s Camry in November

I might add that my 2001 Camry with 115k miles: **tightened steel throttle cable tension** just a bit. 1cm adjustment was a huge improvement.

Gotta old Toyota Camry I use for drifting. This was starting to happen to me. Did your process and it started working again👍🏼
Would recommend getting some injector cleaner as well. I've always found that it helps with smoother idles
The stuff you put in the tank does nothing at all

I agree. I've done mine about 3 or so times until I said screw it and cleaned it as much as possible behind the plate. Definitely helped.
Will this problem fuck the engine up if I drive 2k miles
have vibrating idle and obd say multiple misfire, replaced fuel pump, what other causes

Not getting enough air?
Maybe can do a video on EGR valve cleaning . Other video ideas like thermostat / transmission fluid /power steering flush / Brake fluid flush
berry NGO better off buying a new egr. cheap and easy to install
It started doing this thing when in gear the RPM drops some, when stopped and then I give it gas and start driving it goes away.

Is this similar to what spraying seafoam intothrottle body does?

got plans on making into a long cold air intake

V6 then why speedometer is only 220?

Angelo Cruz transmission slip?
I have this problem! Did yu figure out what was happening??
The freeway is the scariest becasue it cant build the speed quick enough and it acts up when the a/c is on.
You should buy a dual throttle body from a Lexus ES300 if you still plan on keeping it. More efficient throttle body for the 1mz
