Thanks for the heads up

I was Thinking About doing the same, clean it I have a Acura RDX Turbo 2010

Hi , it work for you ?

10 miles

Then you unhooked it and left the ground wire touching the post, you dropped a scew and left you ratchet between the two leads on the battery(potentially dangerous). Also yes this can work but note all emission data gets reset when you unhook the battery. So you should of drove the car for a half hour at different speeds. I am not a mechanic and I make mistakes too. But if your going to teach pple how to DIY learn the basics at a minimum.

have you tried to change it. It is only 20 dollars from Amazon.

elkkit elkkit, I haven’t changed the sensor yet. Did the error came back days after you clean the sensor? Or did it really fixed the problem?

@@jerniejabonillo5494 my problem was gone.

@@elkkitelkkit1452 what is exactly the name of that part to search on amazon ?

@@elkkitelkkit1452 send me the link to buy it, cleaning didnt work.

I went to autozone and they had none so i just replaced sensor , having other issues though cause my battery keeps draining and the alternator seems to be fine

@@JCALRADIO Have them test your battery.

@@thynadoung1627 i got a new battery , got the alternator tested , we disconnected the ac and the problems have stopped and running smooth but i need ac , im in vegas lol , what you think it could be?

You can try recharging your ac with Freon.

Oh the ac was causing the problem.. I recommend to change the ac compressor.

Was there something wrong with it? Bc I also have the same rdx and my light turned on yesterday

Nothing too bad could have been wrong with it just a cracked catalytic converter or a bad co2 censor

Another thing I want to mention, I have this same problem on my wife's 07 rdx. After further inspection and shop replacing the VGT actuator which absolutely did nothing and was a pointless replacement part. The turbo itself should have been inspected which I did myself after my wife took her car in and supposedly the professional fixed it. Not! To keep it simple the turbo has a piston ring, which we will call a seal, that gets worn out in some cases which causes oil to leak in the turbo which it should not, and that oil goes into the intake system , and intercooler which also is a bad! Another issue she had was the cool side of the turbo theres a coolant line to airflow breather that line someone is loose and causing coolant to leak. So, inspect the turbo even though it's operating and spooling boost. It's not normal for that check engine light to be ever. And especially not normal for you to be driving around a vehicle with boost performance system issues. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. They're completely wrong and don't let them work on your car, because they're not truly fixing anything , they just want to take your money and sound very professional and polite doing so, at the end your turbo will eventually blow and most likely get pieces of the turbine and metal shavings into cat exhaust pipe and possibly shavings of metal mixtures into your oil inside the engine block. That's terrible! Big no no..metal to metal contact never a good thing. I hope this can help anyone out there . The real fix, would be replacing the whole turbo or having someone inspect it properly and replace the turbo cartridge for sure, and anything else that might need replacing VGT actuator rod link, the valves, the wastegate, vacum lines etc. Good luck. It's a very big job, and honestly easiest way to remove that turbo would be getting a engine hoist and pulling the entire swap out and removing the turbo and reinstalling the new turbo. It's a real head ache. That's why acura charges so much. And other places dont want to even mess with it unless it's a brand new oem turbo . Because they've ran into problems with many prior rdx s with replacement turbo failures because the Chinese made turbos are junk and fail instantly and shops held liable.

@ Mehdi Schultz , so did anything actually fix it? I have the same light on my 2007 RDX Acura that light and also the SH-AWD light on.

@@jacobofrescas great question. The first thing I may add is that. I turbo seal went out, and was shooting oil all in the air intake system. I ended up replacing the turbo very costly btw. Depending on how many miles, the factory oem turbo fails at or around 150k miles. Dealership even told me it fails and only manufactured life expectation is 150k miles. So, also it throws two error codes evap because it's been poorly running. And shooting oil into places where it shouldn't be. So, the evap module and canister could also need replacing. It's a very exspensive job. And it's a hard job I might ad as well. I think your turbo might be failing as well. If you can I would take your intake piping off and there's a bypass valve that has a black plastic pipe connected to the lower intake part I would remove that and examine see if you see oil inside and also if you can pull the intercooler off if oils is inside as well that means your turbo seal has gone bad and its either time for a brand new turbo or rebuilding yours. Good luck.

@@jacobofrescas I forgot to mention the car is running great again now with the brand new turbo... :)

How much would it cost to replace my turbo if its bad??

delovely day Check your power steering fluid.

Also can be the o ring is bad

Lol not to be rude I was just like is this dude using carb cleaner to clean a maf sensor lmao

As Jerry C said you (guys) didnt fix anything. if error went away, its most likely coincidence. mas sensor is not part of emissions.

After removing he lso leaves the negative terminal right up against the negative terminal still powering the vehicle, lol. You can hear a mechanical noise when it reconnects.

lmao I literally thought the same thing💀💀
