- 2012 NISSAN ROUGE WITH MOMENTARY ROUGH IDLE WHEN A/C CLUTCH COMES ON. A SIMPLE INDUCTION SERVICE, CLEANING OF THROTTLE BODY AND MAF SENSOR, FIXED THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS WHY REGULAR SERVICE IS IMPORTANT. ENGINE VIBRATION.
Just bought a 2015 Nissan rogue off my boss. Runs good aside from this only issue. This video directly fixed my problem. My thanks 👍🏾
"NISSAN ENGINE SHAKES WHEN A/C TURNS ON SIMPLE FIX"
You did a good job kind Sr; with two possible problems when cleaning the MAF ("Mass Air Flow") and the TB ("Throttle Body")...
On older Nissan automobiles; the MAF is different than on your car. Thus, in order to get to the older one; you must remove the whole "air" intake and air filter" plastic plenum; to get to the MAF.
Also; that type is VERY sensitive; and can be easily damaged when cleansing. So be VERY careful in cleansing it. In other words: keep the cleanser can's spray; quite away from the MAF's "wire" sensor. For too much pressure; will often damage the sensor. And they are not cheap.
Further; one should remove the TB; from the metal plenum; going into the engine. I know, I know; that many do try to clean the TB from only the intake side. But really; one should remove the TB; so you can thoroughly clean the output side of the TB. In fact, more "carbon" gathers on the output side; than the intake side. Note: high pressure cleaning spray; does not hurt the TB.
For what it's worth kind Sir.
This fixed my rough idle thank you! It used to shake and drop under 500 rpm whenever the a/c was on now it idle at just under 1k rpm and doesn’t even drop when I turn the ac on! Will keep up with this service from now on on my 2011 Nissan Rogue
Great advice, my 2009 nissan xtrail st auto 2.5 just started shaking, when starting and going into reverse
Hey brother, thank you so much for this video. Just purched a used 2015 Nissan Rogue two days ago and it would really shake when the AC was on and the car was idleing. Not much of a car guy but your video motivated me to do this and the car runs like a top. All vibration when AC is on is gone. Thank you!!!
I did this on my 2013 Rogue and after having a mild heart attack when my idle wouldn't drop below 2000rpm I plugged the MAF back in and it was fine. Then idle sat at around 800, I disconnected the battery for 15 minutes and started it back up. It runs great now. This video was very helpful!
What spray did you use to clean?
If this works for my 2008 Rogue, i will be eternally grateful!! This is the first video I have seen with my exact issues. I have had multiple mechanics look at it and no resolve. 🙏
Keep us posted
I just got done doing this method and it fookin worked!!! I have been to 2 different mechanics and they haven't been able to diagnose this issue! You are the man!!! I appreciate you and this literally took me 15 minutes to do! 🙏🤘
So, after a couple of days the shaking came back, but it is substantially better! What other things should I try? Thanks again brother!
@@COBBADAMS ever got it totally fixed?
shop asked $110 for this. bought the spray cleaner for under $10 and did it myself. runs great. Two takeaways from your video. 1. the MAF sensor can only be connected in one way, so not worry about connecting it wrong. 2. after cleaning the throttle body "when you first start the car it would not want to start and that is normal". I thought I messed up something or should have left it longer to dry before I connected.
does it apply for any type of car? i got a toyota vios sedan, engine shakes a lil when ac on
Yes
@@gautorepair thank you
@@gautorepair i got mine clean and still fluctuating, could it be a spark plug issue?
Make sure motor mounts are in good shape. Sometimes when they get old they transmit more vibration
3 Doritos later…. 🧑🔧 Everyone outside cleaning their Throttle body 😂 🛠 🛠
That makes him an influencer 👏
@@F_T2D_Drew he is an influncer before uploading this video dude !
lol totally eating Doritos and watching this video!!
I did this on my Honda a year or so ago, while I was also changing the air filter anyways. Before this I felt the gaspedal would sometimes stick just a little when I started pushing it in, after stopping and idling. I found that the butterfly valve got caught on a little edge of carbon build up inside the throttle body. After cleaning, problem solved. And idle much smoother.
My wife has a 2013 Rouge and it does the same thing when the AC is on. Her 2011 Rouge she owned before it never did do it but this one has done it for a while. I will clean the throttle body and MAF next week since I am off work and see if helps. Thanks for the informative video. I was just browsing RUclips and saw the title and had to watch it to see what you did to fix it!
Did you fix it with doing that?
@@RealAmericanHero420 I didn't get to do it yet. I started having a missing or jumping on my Ford Ranger that I drive to work and had to try and figure out that since I need it for work. Took me a while to track it down but it was the coil pack and while I was changing it I went ahead and changed the spark plugs and wires also. She doesn't work and the Nissan doesn't get drove that much but I am going to try and clean them and see if it helps. It doesn't affect the way it runs it is just aggravating when you stop with the A/C on and when the compressor kicks in it feels like the car is going to shut off. I will comment back when I do it so we can see if it helps.
J Justice thanks buddy. Hope you get it all figured out.
My 2013 Rogue is having same exact problem. Thanks for the video, I will be cleaning both parts asap. Super helpful, thanks brother!
Legend has it, he still hasn't gotten around to doing it yet.
Thank you so much, i cleaned the throttle body on my 2015 frontier V6 4.0 and it worked!!!
Thanks for the video! Did this to my wife's 2010 nissan rogue and no more rough idles while the AC is on! Easy fix and it only took about 20 minutes. Thanks again
I have a 19 Sentra and I wanna change to an aftermarket cold intake , didn’t know i needed to clean the MAF and throttle like that so thanks!!
Hey bud.. I had the same thing happening in my 2012 nissan dualis. I done everything you mentioned in your video and its been running much better with very little to no drop in the idle. I even gave the air filter a service.
Thanks for your video 👍
This fixed my issue with the shake that has been happening for years.. unfortunately the rest of the car is also broken... 2013 was a really bad year for nissan i guess? Anywhoo.. not taking any other chances and going Toyota/Honda for now on.
Thanks for the post. 2014 Nissan Rogue confirmed fix.
Awesome video. 2013 Nissan Rogue had a rough idle anytime the A/C compressor clicked on and just cleaning the throttle body alone fixed the rough idle
I am hoping this will fix my moms Rogue. She lives in Chicago and Im in Florida, she was panicking thinking her suv’s live was ending 😢
I will see if she can find someone to help her but at less I want to know what can be wrong. Now in days is difficult to trust mechanics. Thanks so much for your video.
Hope all gets resolved
We especially cant trust the Ford Stealerships. They lie, cheat, and steal.
My bmw e36 has same issue. I suspected throttle body would play a role to it. Great video by the way 🙏
Same can’t seem to find the exact fix, I keep getting MAF code and I changed it about 3 timee
I just ordered a brand new throttle body! Can’t wait to see what it does for my car.
#nocarnote!
Thanks for this video 👍 I have this exact AC idle issue in my forester.
Most time some people improved that vibration with the PAG OIL AND YES OF COURSE THOSE BASICS FIRST. CLEANING ALL THOSE THINGS YOU DID IS A MUST FOR ALL VEHICLES. EXCEPT MY TESLA LOL. SORRY FOR CAPS LOL
Thanks, my AC will cause the same problem however turning on the ac on also starts to dim my lights or make it flicker from time to time so I’m thinking that I might have an Alternator problem as well
Same with my car but not just the AC. Anything that uses power dims the lights and causes vibrations.
Thanks for showing it. I had problem because I didn't closed the air filter cap to close properly. You also should check air filter. I had closed it now its working perfectly.
I had my car repaired by mechanic about few months ago during winter. And did not check car air filter.
So for future check out your air filter cap even you taken it to auto repair shop.
Nice video, boss. It just didn't work for mine. Appreciate knowing where the MAS is though!
The vibrations happen on idle when a use anything that uses more power. The heater, rear windows heater, etc. Can it be the battery or alternator?
Well that's answer my question, my rogue it's doing the same thing, 👍👍👍
What is the service called and how much does it cost?
It’s normal to have a little bit of decrease/increase when turning ac on/off, due to the strain/load this puts over the engine
This is true, but too much is an issue
My honda element 2004 vibrates, at stop n go traffic and worser when the ac is on,steering wheel and console, but when I turn off the ac, it doesn't vibrate until I hit the gas pedal, I thought I needed a cv axle but after watching this video, maybe its just as simple as this not sure until, I actually try this,good video anyway
Also check your motor mounts
@@gautorepair they shud be good I replaced them new last year at firestone
@@gautorepair sparkplug, been changed,air filter good , there's no vac leaks
Did the problem stop after cleaning the throttle body?
Which models or years we can't move with your hands. Mine is a nissam rogue 2015, old version.
was about to replace my spark plugs at only 75k miles.... hopefully this'll be it. Think i should replace the spark plugs anyway?
Yes bro...i have the same issue..
Will try it..all the nissan same problem .... already send for tuning...svc centre not svc the air sensor
I also clean my Nissan Cefiro Maf Sensor and Throttle body and it works... I think Nissan has the same problems.
Thank you so much. The shops have been telling me that is not the problem and I had an idea that it was. I have been trying to find where the control value is located. Can you do a video of how to change the control value 2011 nissian rouge?
similar problem in my mazda 6 vibration isnt as violent but its more then Usual .. I already tried to clean massairflow sensor cleaning. since i was at it i cleaned the airbox and addda new airfil worked alittle but still doing same vibrating thing only certain rpm … I’m wondering if it’s a new engine mount , and needs breaking in.. I just replace the top engine mount it was bad, Also replaced the torque mount.. Maybe I need to readjust the torque mount because I put that in first with an old top mount then I realized the top mount was leaking fluid then I change the top mount bringing up the engine at least an inch or so … which means the bottom torque mount was used to having the broken mount position possibly.. what Do you think about that should I readjust it loosen up the torque mount and then use that new position and then just tighten it down?
I gonna try to do this service to my 2013 Rogue tomorrow hope it works
Great video thank you. Very helpful.
My 2017 Nissan Altima started doing it after a couple months of owing the car.
Great video! I have a sentra that shakes when ac is turned on and when its put into reverse or drive. Rpms drop exactly as you showed. All mounts replaced. Fuel trims good. No codes. Upstream O2 very high (2.5 v). Will definitely try this procedure tonight. I only have one question...I was under the impression that we shouldn't manually push open the throttle actuator. Have you heard this?
In some cars you have no choice but to. If you have a cable that goes to the throttle just holf the gas pedal down. If you have a car that when you turn on the ignition engine off opens the throttle then you can do the same. If not then you have to hold it by hand. Either way just remember not to slam the throttle and if its electric throttle and you can open it with the pedal dont force against the motor
I'm pretty sure your knowledge on the engine far surpasses mine but I would highly recommend not storing or laying your tools on engine components while working. The little lip between the bottom of the windshield and the beginning of the engine compartment is my go-to storage slot so nothing falls down into the engine compartment by accident
You are absolutely correct about this. Just being lazy i guess. Lol
Thank you for the video when is it recommended to do a timing change on this cars I have 118500 miles thank you
My suzuki ciaz is doing the same thing, rough idle but only when the AC is on… im thinking of getting my throttle body cleaned see if it improves, a mechanic test drive my car and told me that it could be spark plugs but the idle vibrations didn’t improve even after I’ves changed spark plugs…
My car the engine shakes a little you can see it moving just sitting in park I suspect the engine mounts are stating to go I replaced one of them the easy one to do lol but it doesn’t cause any lights to come on and runs perfectly fine.
Why would the ac create the vibration? Is it cuz of the extra load on the motor? I'm going to do everything you did plus the plugs and wires to see if my problem gets fixed. my car has 33k and the throttle body was cleaned at 26k, also pcv was changed. Thanks
Yes normally ac adds load to the motor
My 15 pathfinder jerks continuously with ac on at low speeds, trying everything, 42000 miles, did u find out anything else?
Can you please explain what the AC system, clutch, or AC compressor have to do with the air intake?
Everytime the ac clutch engages it is an additional load on the engine, therefore the rpms dip. When the throttle body is dirty that same load is more noticeable because the throttle body has a harder time compensating for the load. Depending on how much crud is built up around the opening the vehicle gets worse and worse
@@gautorepair Thank you very much!!
Amazing job 👌👌👌bro can i use crc contact cleaner to clean the butterfly valve?
I recommend the throttle body cleaner
i have the same problem with same conditions but on a 2001 nissan .... what do u think i should do ?
This happens to my 2015 crysler 200
I recently got the Engine Light Solid ON and then the Slip Indicator Light came ON temporarily. The Engine Light code was MAF Sensor malfunctioning so will definitely try the cleaning you showed. Slip Indicator light became more frequent as I drove home (about 1k miles) to the point it was obvious it'd go ON when I reduced the speed to like 15mph or idled. I was able to make it go by turning engine off and restarting and driving off immediately. At one point I lost all power when at a Red light stop. I had turn on/off and immediately step hard on the gas and cross a red light to get going. Finally made it home and plan on addressing it tomorrow (Monday). Hopefully it's all being caused by the MAFS. Btw, will I get all this done plus sparks plugs changed if I pay for a tune up?
Make sure to ask the shop/tech that is servicing your car what is included in a tune up and go from there. Tune up used to include many things back in the day but has since changed over the years due to changing technology. Sometimes an error in one module will set a code in another. For example on some gm cars and issue with certain engine sensors will cause a transmission code to also set. So an issue with your maf could cause your slip light to come on and cause major performance issues.
Bro my 125cc wet clutch bike from bajaj discover 125 has some issue with its clutch. When i get stuck in bumper to bumper traffic and bike heatsup my clutch lever's play decreases and the clutch lever which was set to full becomes half play.
I have excessive vibration with the ac on but only when idling in gear, it also makes a pinging noise in addtion to the vibration after the engine warms up, do you think I have the same issue?
Is it better if you take out the throttle body to clean it??
yes
Unless you want to buy a new gasket then do not do that. Just clean it while still installed.
I have a stage 4 vw polo and when everytime i turn on the ac it messes up with my rpm 😭
That's because you're pregnant
Is this very common with Nissan xtrail, I have 2009 nissan xtrail st auto 2.5 ltr, it's over 36800 km so it has. Done a lot km, I notice starting to get strange rattling sounds coming when car is starting, slightly starting to shake, it's slowly start cost more out of pocket expenses, seems happen around Christmas.
Hi same car and same problem I cleaned and dint fix. When i stop on red light with ac on the rpm drops when im ready to go on (green light
My 13 Nissan Maxima is having rough idle and misfiring on cylinder 6 I changed the sparks and coils on the cylinder still the same
Nice gotta try on a 2011 Corolla 1.8L
Would it have this issue to but instead of a/c world it do this with the full defrost button
Hey bud, I have a nissan qashqai 2008 when it comes under 2000 rpm it's starts idling poorly 😢 any idvise pls tks
Hyundai accent model 2013 while driving if i release the accelarator the engine shut off if AC is turn on but the AC turn off egnine still working even i release the accelarator
Could this also be a sign of a dying alternator? I notice the lights on my dash dim very slightly at night when using the AC
Test battery and charging system
Check the motor mounts also.
Hi bro i have a toyota yarris but its not shaking when its on drive and i stop,but about a weak now it shakes alot when i turn the ac on it even cuts off on the road only when the ac on can that be my problem
Im gonna give this a try soon. I do notice too with our car(2011 Sentra) is that even while the ac is running the RPMs will drop while stopped at a light. Also because of the rough idle the car has a chirping noise... i was told it was the engine mounts making the noise? That sound right? I want to know is there is a way i can quiet that down again cuz when stopped it chirps quite loud at this point. Thanks
Chirping noises are normally associated with drive belts. But i guess anything is possible
@@gautorepair I call it a chirp... but the sound is clearly caused by the vibrations and not a belt. Like something needs to be tightened, type of chirping. I can imitate the chirping to a lesser degree when shutting the doors to the car as well.
My car was doing the same thing I have a BMW every time I turn on the AC in the car like wants to turn off.
Cool, thank you
Bro i could tell you what on top of that will help
did you have perform a throttle body relearn?
I have a 2012 Altima and I have acceleration loss when my AC is on , it shakes and almost sputters could this be the issue?
Seems like you may have other issues as well.
Maybe a vacuum leak
Hey buddy, did I ever find out the issue?
U
To be honest no , there's no codes no transmission issues , no ac issues , no vacume leak . I'm kinda at a loos at this point I just restart my car and it goes away
My nissan Sentra shakes after I crank it up and sometimes when I do drive. What do I do?
Mine does to
@@memetaylor6493 what did they say it was?
Same here I have 2010 Nissan Sentra that jerks on me help
I have a 2019 Nissan Kicks, and I'm experiecing rough idling. Is it okay to open the butterfly valve manually, even if the throttle body is electric?
Yes. But dont slam it when you're closing it
Was having rough idling ( basically high rpm around 2k ) issue with my Chevy Kalos 1.2.. Got it cleaned thoroughly by opening the TB from its Mount. After that the above problem was fixed to some extent however, I've noticed check engine light post cleaning and there is also a jerkyness while accelerating especially in low RPM ( say about 1.2k ).Idle RPM also drop and car jerks while AC is on. Any idea what could be the reason behind it ?
Might be caused by bad spark plugs or coil, have it checked
@@whatsnew2138 Nope, it was injectors and Fuel pump issue
soon i as turn my ac it starts shaking while on D and idle like you did on the video. the engine shakes but i don’t really see change on the idle needle like yours . could it still be fixed i do clean the throttle and mass sensors
Wouldn't hurt regardless
No need to idle relearn?
No
Well mine required it!
Yes, it has to have a relearn. NEVER open the butterfly valve by hand! Use the accelerator.
Hi please answer my question if you have time. I have the same car model with you and i notice that every time i change the gear from P to R or D i can hear a snapping sound. Do you have any idea what is the problem? I recently changed the transmission oil but the sound still there. Please help and thank you.
Have you checked all motor and transmission mounts
Did you have to perform a manual air volume relearn?
Also can I just clean the mass airflow sensor and throttle body and let the computer so a automatic adjust? Thanks
For the most part yes
Thank you sir for this thorough presentation.
My 2014 nissan altima wheel vibrates and shakes wen I'm at a stop light ... what is wrong with it
Would I do the same for a Mitsubishi Outlander 2015 the car idles rough when on park and AC is on, when I turn ac off it stops. I opened the hood and the engine was not shaking but as soon as I turned the ac on it engine started shaking and sputtering?
Try it. Would not hurt
Wow great job!!
Lol At easy fix. Appreciate you figuring out the problem though
My Toyota Camry 07 does this with the ac. Was looking at a new ac compressor but will try this first
how did it go? keep me updated, please 4cyl?
It's not the air compresor, try your fuel and air filter
Any update. I have a 2006 Camry same problem
How did it go? My 2013 camry does that
Did u get it fixed?
Does this apply to jeeps also? I have a 2016 jeep i got it at 55000 miles drive it often and alot due to my job, it does an annoying shake when the air is on please help any suggestions?
Yes it does. Also check motor mounts
I have the same problem with my 8th gen accord, cleaning the throttle body and mass air flow did not help. can anyone help?
Do u know if need to relearn/reprogram if i open the plate by hand on a 05 altima?
You should be ok.
This happens to me even when the ac isn't on. Should I try this still and see maybe it just needs to be cleaned out?
If your vehicle has over 30k and you have not done it before, you should get it done
I filled my coolant system because the container was actually empty. going to see how it works tomorrow!@@gautorepair
I have the same problem
But it happens when I push the break pedal.
Is this fix helpful for my case?
You may have a ruptured diaphragm in the brake booster
@@gautorepair I appreciate you help
Thanks again
Thank you 🙏
Hey there, I did this on my 2011 Pathfinder, the throttle body and MAF sensor are spotless, but the engine is still bogging down when the AC clutch kicks in. The service engine light for MAF sensor code also comes on now and then.
There is a service bulletin for the MAF sensor and an ECU reprogram, I'm wondering if I should get a new MAF sensor, or get dealership to do the ECU reprogram.... both are around the same price and I don't want to do both if I don't need to.
You should follow bulletin instructions
Replace your ac compressor or check your freon capacity. Try taking some freon out due to your ac compressor poor performance. Uour engine is struggling to run everything in your car and if your ac compressor performance is not right it will shake and soon uour engine will break.
My 09 altima does that as well but still vibrates when is in drive. It gets heavy when I put the ac on
Sean Johnson have u fixed it? My car is havin the same problem
No I haven't fixed it yet.
same problem someone said vacuum leak possible intake manifold gasket
Possible
Does this works on a 2010 nissan rogue
do you disconnect the battery while doing it?
My 2011 Nissan Sentra SR does the same thing but twice. And my "Service Engine Soon" light came on, when I got off the freeway. What could be wrong?
Need to check out the codes first
@@gautorepair AutoZone does that for free right?
Yes
Hey I have getz car having issues like vibrates and different sounds from muffler. Car idling also jerks.. when I'm turning on Ac losses engine power. I cleaned throttle body. Is misfire could be a reason?
Yes. Change sparkplugs, check coils
@@gautorepair Thank you...
Bro, I just clean the throttle body of my Accord 9th gen.. when I start the car the rpm won't drop from 1.3K. Previously the RPM is around 700 to 800. Any idea how to bring it back to normal rpm idle?
Yeah that happens sometimes. If it doesn't self adjust you may have to do an idle relearn.
I have a 2013 sentra it shakes at stop light when i have the brake pedal pressed will this fix that issue
Not sure. If your brake booster is sucking air due to a ruptured diaphragm or seal then it could cause this issue when you apply the brakes
@@gautorepairthanks for reply how can i check this out
Do you hear any unusual hissing coming from the brake pedal area when you step on the brakes
@@gautorepair when the car is in park i hit the break and nothing when the car is in gear then it happens here is a video that explains my problem
2013 Nissan Sentra Motor Vibration

hey buddy, great video! had the same problem on my 2015 altima and did the same thing you did, worked like a charm! However, rn i'm trying to get rid of a consistant, mild vibration when idling in gear. It's not severe but definitely noticeable and kinda irritating. I cleaned both MAF and throttle body, used seafoam fuel additive as well as seafoam top engine cleaner, the vibration improved, but it's still there, especially at cold start. When the car warms up, it subsides quite a bit but still there. What do you think the problem might be? I'm planning on replacing the engine air filter (although this one isnt really clogged up) and changing the pcv valve. My car has I-4 engine and 67000 miles on it. Do you think it's the nature of I-4 to vibrate or there's something wrong? How would you go about fixing it? Thanks!
Glad you found the video helpful. I have seen many of these vehicles develop a minor vibration as they get older. Keep the throttle body and maf clean every 30k. Also check out the motor mounts. A nice trick is to get a jack and with a piece of 2×4 support the engine. If the vibration goes away chance is the motor mount is letting vibration reach the frame. If you replace the mount be extremely careful not to use cheap mount. There are mounts that are oil filled and the cheaper replacement are solid rubber that allows for more vibration. I know some nissan use oil filled mount. Please subscribe if you haven't and ill make a video about this as soon as I get the chance.
How about cleaning the EGR valve? When they come stuck open and build up all that carbon your car can have these symptoms too. I’d recommend clean it and lube it with a little wd40
@Daniel Zhai. Ideal learning by computer require? When clean maf.
Hey G can this problem cause the car to die while your driving or after coming to a stop at a light, because I have all those symptoms however mine randomly dies after those symptoms start
I dont thinks so. You may have another issue as well
@@gautorepair I’ve tried quite a few things, I’m going to try cleaning the air flow sensor and the body, if that dosent work should I just have a mechanic scan it or would you recommend anything
Definitely scan for codes, specially if the check engine light is on.
@@gautorepair no engine light actually
So my 2010 versa the rpm goes down and engine shuts off when turning a/c on. Any one know??
