My 2009 Honda civic ex idle fluctuates, hasn’t caused any issues but now that I’ve come across this video I’ll have to clean it out when I get the chance, thx
Damn this fixes the shaky vibrations that occur when the ac is on aswell as turning the wheel, i bought two transmission mounts thinking it was that. Thank you four da video
That rubber grommet gave me hell in my 2008 civic It even cracked the bottom of the air filter box And after hours of trying to go around it and trying to remove I gave up Now thx to ur video i have the confidence to go back and try again
Thank you thank you thank youuuuu! My 07 civic ex has been idling low for months and I’ve been wanting to clean but couldn’t see how the hell you could get to it and couldn’t find any good videos showing how to reach it.
hi danny, i own a civic ET 2.0 2005 recently i experiend a lost of electrical power out of sudden. it happen several times, lickily while it is in park. but yesterday whioe slowing donw on the highway, i sence a split second of engine dead. but luckily it resume instantly, what mylay cause it?
My revs used to dip to 500rpm when coming to a stop and pressing the clutch in, i did the throttle body clean, reset and idle relearn which solved it. However it caused my clutch to feel different. Previously the biting point was high. It is now lower and about right. However when warm after about 20 minutes of use it becomes stiff and springy. What could this be? And how can a throttle body clean reset effect the feel of the clutch?
Hello there I have a Honda civic 2012 that when is on park and turn AC the car rpm sound like going to tahúr down and AC is warm but when I start running AC is cold and car no misfire no more help please
He removed the battery for the purpose of filming the video to have space and show how it all goes in and out, in this case he reconnected the battery just to open the throttle
Am having 2010 honda civic 1.8 l 4 cyl automatic not giving proper mileage. Fuel Tank Capacity 50Liter It will give 560 kilometers if I fill up fully for the long travel. When am drive inside the city for full tank its giving me 290 to 300KM These are the steps that I have done. 1. Clean the mass airflow sensor. 2. Clean the throttle body. 3. Clean the plugs. 4. Changed the engine oil and gear oil. 5. Clean the fuel filter. 6. Clean the fuel Injector. Please assist me with this.
Could you help me. The air box at the bottom is broken and I do not know how to weld it because part of it is missing and it is not available in my country. The arm he holds It's broken, I just want to see what it looks like so I can solder it properly
Guys i have a hinda civic fd 2008 , after i start the car and accelerate a little it shuts off if i dont keep accelerating and my control pannel light flicks
dude i have a 2007 honda civic that has a fault and it gets worse when i turn on the air. Today with your video I cleaned the throttle body, thank you very much. but I wanted to know where the IAC valve is located? I did not recognize it when cleaning the throttle body, and I would like to clean it too
@@dannysdiygarage great so it doesn’t need what dealers call reprogramming Throttlebody after cleaning, and was wondering when you’re going to change the PCV in any up coming episodes and thanks again. And was wonder how many miles on your Honda Civic when you started having idle issues, I am new to Honda civics , just picked up 2007nEx coupe with 81,000 and had a lot of issues with car complete front end was shot out of Florida, lol thks
I own two civics, both 2009’s, dealer probably say to perform a relearn procedure, that’s great if you have the equipment, if not it will relearn on its own overtime, the civic I did in the video relearned pretty quick, within a day of driving, however my other civic did not idle correctly for 2 weeks and then was perfect, so if it’s not perfect after the cleaning, don’t panic
I just had my throttle body cleaned and the EGR valve, but after that the car is idles high and changes gears funny and kicks when I let go of the Gas pedal. Is this normal? Or its something that my mechanic did or did not do. I do not know if he cleaned the MAS sensor. On Honda Civic 2006 R18A engine. Any thoughts. Thanks.
One more thing. If the battery is disconnected for such a period and some settings are reset. Is the stereo the only thing that might be affected? I do not want to open up to more issues, trying to fix the uneven idle. Thank you
@@thahtran3236 yes, here is a link, th-cam.com/video/SFeP4jpJox0/w-d-xo.html I'm also working on a video that will show you how to remove it and clean it, which will do a better job on cleaning, this should be out soon.
This should be in your owner’s manual, I only know the civic should be at operating temperature and check a few minutes after it’s shut down and on a level surface
Not enough information for me to give you an educated guess, any codes? if not check out this video th-cam.com/video/a9K-E2a1BRw/w-d-xo.html, also unplug the air flow sensor and see if it's any better. this is just a wild guess, however please update me when you get this fixed others would love to know what it was.
@@dannysdiygarage am buying another brain box, my Mechanic said my brain box is bad, because when plugged in, the fuse box will be sparking when the ignition light is on, so am changing the brain box, so the accelerator will get fixed. Because he said the problem is electrical.
I have a 2012 civic the car runs good just on idle it fluctuates a bit to wear it shakes a little but not stall i can hear something kick on then the idle goes up then turns off then idle goes down ... hopefully this helps will try it out
is it your air conditioner compressor kicking it, it will also kick in when the defroster is on, if that is the case it's probably normal, cleaning the air flow sensor and throttle body could help, also worn mounts make this seem worse than it is, hopefully this helps
Hello, I’ve been having starting and dying immediately issues when I jump start my car. It all started after I cleaned my throttle body.I cleaned it because my car was shifting improperly and bogging out. I’ve replaced my maf sensor, fuel pump, fuel pump relay and fuses, new plugs and coil packs, and even a new 02 sensor because it was throwing off a low voltage code. Any ideas where I should check next? Thanks, if you read all of this.
@@dannysdiygarage 180k miles 08 lx, last codes it had were P0113, and P0102. That was why I had replaced my maf sensor. I will check today if my exhaust is plugged, but I don’t think it should. I installed a catback system less than a year ago. I was able to jump the car for around 30 seconds maybe before it died, but now it will only start right up for a second and then dies. It will usually only start twice for a second before it doesn’t want to start anymore. Anyways thanks for the time .
@@dannysdiygarage I was able to get a whole new fuel pump assembly and the car runs now, but it won’t accelerate, or barely revs up when in drive unless I feather the throttle
You cannot use throttle body cleaners on the MAF sensor, but you could use MAF sensor cleaner on the throttle body, however it may not clean it very well

Very thorough tutorial 👍
We call it “Contact Cleaner” in Europe for cleaning electrical connections.
Did my pcv valve w the help of my 12 yo. Thank you. U saved me 165 bucksss

Thank you for the detailed video. I have seen none to clean the air input sensor. I guess that is the reason people are getting poor mileage here.

Appreciate that, couldn’t have done it without you 👍🏼
Please what is the function of the other hose that connects down towards the fans, mine is open and I get a lot of air in my air filter.
How about IACV cleaning?
Danny did you consider doing a valve cleaning since you had access to the throttle body?
I love these videos! Just remove the music I feel like i am in elevator or at the dentist 🦷 office. 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for useful video,
can you share the rims model?
Appreciate your gratitude
I have an 08. It would atleast sputter and die. I cleaned all the components you demonstrated but now the car won’t do anything. Any suggestions?
Can I use WD-40 spray for this cleaning?
No only use what I said,
Taking the throttle body off will get a better and proper cleaning
great point, I do agree

Great video, I have a similar question, you have got the battery off, how to start the vehicle to make the pedal work? It will work without battery?
i think on older cars a wire is connected to the throttle body from the gas pedal
I did this and my idle is acting up and now i have a check engine light on please help.
Thanks i will try this today

Can brake clear be used to clean the throttle body and maf sensor
No, brake cleaner is to harsh for the air flow meter and not strong enough for the throttle body

Why my engine light came on after I followed and did exactly the video ? Any idea ?

If clean the MAP or MAF sensor(s), make sure it is dry before install back.
Make sure wire harness are conected securely too.
