Hi and thanks for watching! Congrats on the successful repair, cleaning the throttle body and MAP sensor is definitely worth the try before replacing them.

I bought a Nissan maxima 2012 and thr engine it had a lot of hoses loose and one disconnected at first it didn’t wanna start then eventually I bought some new hoses and changed them but it still wants to stall and sometimes smoke comes out the hood

Hi and thanks for watching! What kind of smoke? That shouldn't be happening so inspect it as soon as possible.

I have a 203 MK 4 golf 1,6 petrol sometimes when I am driving the car cuts out suddenly this sometimes happened more when the weather is worm outside , and sometimes it judders I have changed the spark plugs and the four silver tubes that attaches to the spark plugs, but the problem is still there could this be the Throttle body causing this issue?

Hi and thanks for watching! It could be numerous things besides the throttle body. Usually, when the throttle body is faulty, the car goes into limp mode and completely loses power. That was the case on my Skoda, besides limp mode three dashboard warning lights came up at the same time.. There's a video about the whole problem on our channel.

My 2006 Chevy Malibu starts good, idles good (800-1000RPM) drives good through first gear and second. The moment i mash it to the floor or even try going uphill or getting on the highway it loses power and bounces at 3-4krpm making it shift harder. The check engine light will come on for a couple seconds and then it shuts off (no check engine light on currently so i cant run the code)

Could be bad spark plugs. Most cases your engine is running lean (dry), worst case scenario the transmission took a hit.

Currently experiencing an issue with my 2005 scion xb rpm almost drops to 0 and shoots back up to a 1000 rpm when idling it mostly occurs when my AC is on. Could throttle body be the issue?

@DespairRepair 4 ай бұрын

Hi and thanks for watching! It could be numerous things but I would check the AC compressor (and the rest of the system), the serpentine belt, and else since it only happens when you turn on the AC.
