  • I show you how to clean the throttle body and air intake temperature sensor on a 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 Chrysler PACIFICA.
    Cleaning a dirty throttle body and air intake temperature sensor will optimize the engines air/fuel ratio and smooth a rough idle and improve efficiency (mpg).

    Just followed these instructions on my 2018 with ~70k miles. After I finished turned the ignition and the car stalled out...(kind of gave me a mini stroke...OMG what have I done??). Gave it a few moments and tried again and BOOM, rough idle was gone and engine was purring at about 1000 rpms instead of rough/bumpy 600-750rpm. Thank you so much!

    The Chrysler Pacifica is the biggest pile of junk I have ever owned. I wouldn't buy anything dodge/Chrysler again. I have have a 2017 with 110,000 miles and I have spent $6000-$7,000 in the last 2 years. Piece of crap shakes still.

    As an engineer, I am impressed by your resilience in finding a solution.

    My girlfriend’s 2019 Pacifica has a failed head gasket at 100k miles. I’ve noticed a ton of others with the same issues at even earlier miles. My best advice, don’t buy anything Chrysler. It’s junk.

    I wish I could show you the before and after images on mine! This made my rough idle go away on my 2017 with 114,000 miles. This was the first real “issue” I’ve had with it. Thanks for the video!

    that throttle body was gross, you think you can use mass airflow sensor cleaner on there instead of buying another can? or is it not strong enough cleaner for that application?

    Yeah that not so smooth idle problem you are describing is currently going on with my 2017 Pacifica which has 106,000 MI but you have described it to a T

    Out of curiosity, why did you not clean behind the throttle plate? If it was dirty in front, I would presume it was dirty behind as well

    Great information and superb explanation of how to do these things. I can't imagine any Pacifica owner who would not appreciate the quality and help from these videos. I would also like to second the comment about maybe doing one about the spark plugs! Thanks again.

    Very knowledgeable gentlemen explained it all perfectly and I did what he requested and it fixed my low idle vibration

  • @TheSouthpawSharpshooter

    You’ve been my go-to guy for Pacifica maintenance and repairs. Thank you, sir!

  • @mattb5219

    I just wanted to say you rock! Just got a Pacifica last week and you helped me diagnose and repair this issue, the Oil Filter cooler adapter issue(found out I had a leak, luckily covered by my CPO), and rough shift trans and you helped reset that system to mitigate that issue. You’ve got a new fan and subscriber! Thanks

    We just bought our very first ever used ‘19 Pacifica with 35k miles. I come from the world of Subaru, Honda & Toyota, but have always liked the Pacifica. I’m noticing a slight/subtle vibration at idle. Glad to know there are videos like yours for this car. Many thanks for this video!

  • @dporrasxtremeLS3

    Outstanding Information! Like and subscribed! Great speaking ability too. Keep up the good work helping us with our Pacifica. We are just at 60K and this is such a beautiful vehicle. The transmission research is Just Outstanding! Thanks again!

  • @ConnorBallin659

    I would recommend taking the throttle body off and cleaning both sides! But this is a great video on how to do all of this yourself.

  • @frankgrammatico3827

    Outstanding video. Clear and concise. Thank you.

    Great video! i'm going to try this on my 2017 Pacifica. I also need to look to how to replace the PCV as I saw oil on the air filter when I replaced it.
