    Thank you! I have tried everything. Replace my mass air flow sensor twice. I've replaced the valve cover, spark plugs, coils, pig tails, air filter and this was the only thing that worked. Mechanic after mechanic, til my 15 year son saw this and did everything you said and the problem stopped. It only cost me about $6 for a can of throttle body cleaner. Thank you!

    Cleaning the intake helps a lot with pretty much any car...the maf also helps a lot to be cleaned at a regular maintenance time..but remember with the maf..it's takes a special Cleaner because it is a sensor..and most common cleaners will leave a residue behind causing more problems..so when it comes to Cleaning many off these parts..make sure to use the correct Cleaning solvents..great video btw..

    One other thing to inspect that he did not mention, check the vent hose (accordion looking hose) look in between the gaps for splits or holes. I had everything he did here done to mine and I also had to replace the vent hose because it had several splits and holes in. Otherwise he is correct on this will fix that problem.

    I have a 2011 Nissan Altima JUST LIKE THIS ! I have replaced my mass airflow sensor 2 times . I also did a fuel injector cleaner 1 time . Problem still occurred . The problem is when I crank it it idles high then low repeatedly then sits a loud idle . When I approach red lights it stops completely as it should but when the light turns green and I press the gas it kinda of jumps . Nevertheless it stalls when I get at certain speeds sometimes . I’m going to replace my throttle bottle and pray all these problems stop. Thanks for the video

    It ran good from Sept 2020 to Jan 2022. Then it started showing early signs of hesitation again.
    This time I only removed the black plastic air duct that connects to the throttle body and sprayed cleaner into the throttle body without removing it from its mount.
    It solved the problem and it’s back running well without hesitation. I’m expecting that at some point I may need to replace the throttle body because car parts need maintenance but are not designed to last indefinitely.

My noise would start on cold mornings and after research, it was stated the cause was the belt tensioner. If it's your belt tensioner - becareful removing them - they can easily snap off in the block. Do not use old bolts - replace with grade 8 bolts.

    I've owned a 2009 for 9 years and I don't think my air filter's ever been changed until today. My engine would hestitate once in a rare while when trying to accelerate from a complete stop, never going above 40. It's problematic when you're trying to merge after a right turn... The plastic intake hose leading up to the air filter box was also loose, so I just duct taped it. It was a little more loose than yours. I dont think that's a big deal if it's before the air filter, but the duct tape should prevent any excess dirt/dust coming in where it shouldn't.

      @joen2521  3 года назад +1

      Good point, that’s something I should have clarified on the video. With the battery disconnect, the on-board computer has no way of determining that the butterfly valve was moved. Unless by moving it with too much force, something physically becomes off-reference so just be careful when moving it. There are many videos that others have posted on how to reset the throttle body and it may be good to be prepared if that issue does occur.

  • @Real_Rob_Reels
    @Real_Rob_Reels Год назад

    LOL--- No, the gook is not why your Nissan is stalling in the middle of traffic. Chances are it's the Camshaft & Crankshaft Position Sensors (which should be changed at the same time). It's very common with these cars. This guy here-although I appreciate the time and effort he put into this video---doesn't seem to really understand a lot about being a technician-- maybe as a mechanic he is good. :)

  • @joen2521
    @joen2521  3 года назад +1

    In my case, although it may be hard to see in the video, the throttle body had excessive carbon build up on the outer edge of the valve and on the inner cavity wall. This would compromise the seal which is intended to be created when the valve is in the closed position.

      • The butterfly valve inside the throttle body opens and closes freely
      • The small rubber gasket is set in place. This is where the throttle body and intake manifold come together.
      • The throttle body is resting flat on the intake manifold

      I bought 3 quarts of transmission fluid, my brother told me that I needed 3 more bottles of fluid and see if the car pick more speed. My car didn’t have noooo transmission fluid in it, bone dry!! Believe once I get more fluid 3 more quarts praying it will drive okay 🙌🏽that’s was causing the car to jerk. Again once the car pass 20 miles it drove normal; type of fluid you need is: Vavoline Full Synthetic Transmission Fluid CVT ( continuously)
      Make sure you buy this type of fluid. After putting the first 3 quarts in, car still making that humming sound not as bad as it did before. So I’m getting 3 more quarts, pray everything works out for you sir.

      If it never had a throttle body cleaning or replacement before, it would be the first thing I would look at along with the air cleaner and MAS. As mentioned in the video, many things can cause this problem however, throttle bodies need to be maintained (cleaned) to work properly. If you decided to go ahead, remember to disconnect the battery which will also avoid throttle body re-learning process.

    My 2007 definitely needed the 3 steps, especially the throttle body...what a mess! Afterward, it required the throttle re-learn, which the pedal procedures failed at correcting. Luckily, I have a good scan tool that included the re-learn function. However, that darn sporadic hesitation is still occurring...ARGH! Any other ideas?

      @@kuzmanovskinikolce I got a great deal on that Thinkdiag dongle type scanner. It came with one year of subs for all makes and models. I was able to do the relearn, program new key fobs. I was also able to program new keys for my pt cruiser. Very good item. However, once the subs run out, you have to pay for what you want. I have yet to do so because I have not needed that level of scan tool since that time. It still works as a regular OB2 scanner, and when I actually need to do something above that, I will have to pay for the sub for one make at a time. Not sure the cost, but I think it is around $40 for one, for a year. That hesitation with the Nissan is still there, but it happens rarely, and pretty much when you start off, give it gas, then let up, then give it gas again, there, that is when it hesitates for a hot second, if that makes sense.

    Was you check engine light on ? My wife's is flashing lol I've already changed the coil packs and everything involved with that but wants to carve warms up it starts acting very funny and it's hard to get a read on it if you just plug up an OBD plug cuz I was going to show is that it's getting a lean air flow and gas mixture that's all it's going to tell you and in today's world we live in I do not have the money to take it to a mechanic and I've never taken any car I've had to a mechanic but this one is on the verge of blowing up so I have to figure out what it is fast and I only have one day to fix it . This was a nice video but I don't think that's what's wrong with my wife's car because it sounds like a freaking diesel it's definitely misfiring but I change the coil packs and those things were $300 so I don't know what the hell I'm going to do if is something expensive I'm hoping it's just a injection sensor or mass flow air sensor or even a fuel pump those are things that might not cost that much and easy to replace. I just don't want to have to take this engine completely apart again 🤦🏻‍♂️

    It's a great video. My Nissan altima recently failed smog check. Today I went to Mossy Nissan to fix my check engine light, they said I should replace the throttle body costs $1280! I didn't see your video then and one of my friends did something like you and tried to reach back of throttle from the front side. Since didn't watch the video didn't risk to go for other side. However the car now works well. I am not sure if the check engine light will come back. 🤔 Do you think if I go for second smog check, my car can pass?

    • @joen2521
      @joen2521  3 года назад +1

      There are many things that could cause it to fail a smog check like EGR valve, O2 sensors, catalytic converter, gaskets, restrictions to exhaust and others. Everything is integrated with each other so it’s too hard to say.

Currently my car is at 167k and had the sensor code p0101 reading, my car was lagging during full throttle as Joe mentioned...I changed out my air flow sensor and no more lagging...it’s was such a struggle to get the true code. But thanks to O’Reiley for that proper information and got it fixed by my mechanic...something I definitely could of done myself. But he did it for me at zero dollars 💸 ...let me not begin to tell you we thought it was the cat converter...saved so much!!! Your video was very informative!!! Thank you!

    • @joen2521
      @joen2521  2 года назад

      Whenever a throttle body is replaced, it needs to have a re-learn procedure done. However, if you remove the negative post from the battery and only clean the throttle body, then it normally won’t need a re-learn procedure. This is because the cars onboard computer is off when the battery is disconnected.
      Another mechanics opinion may be helpful and there are also many videos showing the re-learn procedure to help you be better informed when speaking with a mechanic. Hope this helps...good luck.
