Anytime I need to find out how to do something to my 2005 Nissan Altima 2.5, I always check here first! Wish I could find more videos of some common problems with my vehicle, like how to fix the fuel gauge not showing the correct amount of fuel, or how to fix the dome light not working.
Quick question, even though i have no check engine light on and just want to remove the throttle body and clean it, do i still have to perform the relearn process?
No matter what, your videos always are so professional and direct to the point. Probably I will do that for my 1999 S70 volvo . Do you have the part? Ah and the most important thing, do I have to do the same process or is different for my S70? Thank you so much.
Very frustrating , I’ve had no luck getting this to work, installed new throttle body and TOS motor assembly, followed procedures exactly , didn’t work, so the car sits , not useable
Just an FYI .... your procedure didn't take ... you were still idling at 900 RPM. Don't be afraid to run the procedure SEVERAL TIMES until the idle falls down and then recovers to the proper level .... it sometimes takes MANY ATTEMPTS before you get the exact procedure done with the correct timing. You will know when it is done correctly when your final startup idles high.. then goes down .. then settles at the correct level. I had to do mine SIX TIMES before it took, but luckily I was informed of the multiple attempts sometimes needed. It's a tricky procedure getting the timing right, the pedal depressing right, and just a few seconds off either way can disrupt the whole procedure .... KEEP TRYING ... it will work.
Great stuff , explained very well. thank you Master ! I have learned something today. You are really great teacher. Salamat, Arigato, gracias, donkinshon. Means , Thank you.
I have 2015 nissan altima 2.5s almost 60k miles plan on cleaning throttle body and mass flow sensor, if i unplug negative terminal, will it relearn or whats the process?
I have a 2013 nissan sentra i disconnected the negative and positive battery cables and i just loosen the throttle body i moved the throttle plate a little bit gently where i used shop towel i sprayed throttle cleaner on towel and wiped the plate and the edge and put it together i never had check engine light on seems to not hestitate as bad
Could u give me directions on how to do this on a Nissan 2008 Altima it’s kinda weird since I have a push start instead of the key my part comes in tmr I would love help 😅
So I just installed a new throttle body on my 05 nissan altima 3.5 and when I did the reprogramming the check engine light did not come on? But I took it for a drive around the block seemed pretty good. Just wanted to know if that would be a problem if the check engine light did not come on and im driving it. Pls help
The elbow thats connected in between the intake air tube to the breather hose is completely ripped. Can that be the case of why my car is in limp mode? It's in limp mode right after I cleaned throttle without taking it apart, new crankshaft sensor, and spark plugs.

Are you sure about that 64 inch pounds torque? Seems high--- I tried 40 inch lbs torque on a 3/8" nut and bolt with a pile of washers in between. The washers were deforming under the bolt head yet the (new) torque wrench still hadn't reached the slip point. ???
If you are doing it your self when you buy the new electronic throttle body . you will get a papper its the warranty and idle relearn procedure for your car.
Can I do this procedure for my 2017 Nissan Altima 2.5L L4 after I take my throttle body off to clean it? My car been doing this rough idling for 2 months now and I’ve changed idle pulley, serpentine belt, Ac compressor pulley, fuel injector system cleaning, and it’s still giving me this rough idling and it gets worse when I put my ac on.. Earthquake car omg😢
Jasar B You think,or you know for sure?Usualy you’ll get the P2135 code for TPS ,i have the same car,changed it to used one from junkyard,works good,had to programm it
Xterra 2007 Iam getting this code now p2135 and will have a trip to junkyard and hope thats will be ok no luck on cleaning throttle which was so help full with valvtronic selenoid and worked like a charm by ultrasonic cleaner and injector cleaner tester on off and every thing is ok after that iam getting p2135 🤪 🤒😓 whats this 🤕🤧 iam sick hope this will be last problem before New one on the road 😁
I'm going to do mine when i get home from work.Im not replacing but just doing the relearning process. The way you explained it . I should have no problem. I'll let you know how it goes.
@@1AAuto I tried the relearning process the next day. But I didn't have a voltage meter to check the battery. But tried it anyway. After I pumped the gas 5 times in 5 secs. The check engine light didn't start blinging. Do you think thats from not checking voltage?? And if not up to voltage would it cause this to happen?
will this work for a 2007 GMC acadia? I have a reduce Engine message and the mechanic told me that I need to replace the BT, but He said I can't do it myself because it needs to be reprogram.

Should the idle relearn be done every so many miles or years? I have an 03 altima 2.5 L and the engine shakes at idle in drive and in reverse. Can this be a sign of a need of idle relearn? or throttle body cleaning? I already changed all motor mounts and belt tensioner.
You might need a new valve cover if oil is on the spark plugs. I had shaking and misfire from a old valve cover. Try replacing it and your spark plugs... but it also could be your coil packs
@@PLATINUM2U is absolutely correct. I changed battery, fuel pump, alternator, cam and crank sensors(aftermarket then after they failed got nissan ones) spark plugs, coil packs, and a valve cover(had oil pooled up in cylinder 1and was getting misfires). Car wasn't maintained for years. Runs so much better. Got a p0507 code so im gonna clean the etb and then do the relearn. Tinted it, changed the radio, painted it with a maaco deal, got some junkyard rims and painted them and the calipers. Feels like a new car to me lol.
So my idle keeps surging up and down and won't stabilize after cleaning my throttle body did I mess it up.? Your steps aren't working for me 03 nissan altima 2.5 4 cylinder

spring 12 Hey thanks for the video. I wonder if you can help with an issue. I replaced the maf sensor and the cleaned the throttle body on maxima 2011. Then the car did not run right and when pressing the gas hard , it seems that there was no air and the car was gasping for air. Took it to one mechanic after charging 120 bucks he said he can’t fix it. i took it to anther , he couldn’t fix it either. So I took the car home and opened it up again and I when I opened the part that fit to throttle body the whole thing came off. There is a tubing connection that goes under the throttle body and it just came off. Not sure where this thing connects to
Hi, yesterday I drove my car to the Mountains, and the acceleration was dying and felt like the gear or engine will fall, I change CVT Oil a couple of days ago and cleaned Mass Air Flow Sensor too but the problem was a little back then now. While driving on a normal road the gear is like pushing the car. Please help me I have a small family and I was hoping yesterday that I at least reach home and reached.

Do you still have to do this process when you're just removing the old throttle body and putting it back on or when you're only getting a new throttle body?
I have a 2003 Nissan altima with the same engine as this one and after I removed the throttle body and cleaned it. I did the throttle body reprogram and I have been noticing that when I accelerate it accelerates slowly and then it starts to accelerate fast and when it shifts I feel the car jerk forward like it suddenly gets a push. Could this be caused by the throttle body or is my transmission going out? I checked the transmission fluid and it looks red and is filled to the top and it doesn't smell burnt. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
+Tomy Perez If your vehicle is misfiring, you can impact damage to the catalytic converter (which might give codes for your O2 sensor), excess unburnt fuel can break down your oil, and overall you will have poor driving performance

Why do manufacturers make things so over complicated? All those steps and procedures to reprogram it were unbelievable.
Fuel economy of course.. I have got a carburetor i have got one screw to do all of the idle adjustment to my liking
Thats modern computer-cars for you.
