Thank you Felix. I followed your directions exactly. They were perfect. My finger wasnt strong enough to unplug the throttle sensor wire but I used a flat head screwdrive and gently pressed it and it was easier. My 2018 cx5 has 18,000 miles on it. Although I have used CRC intake cleaner through the intake to clean it at 10,000 miles, this was the first time I removed the throttle body. There was a half inch ring of carbon on the backside. Now my car runs quieter and smoother.

Hi Aldo. It is recommended to replace tge TB gasket . But if your gasket is still in good working order you do not replace it. But if you have the luxury to replace might aswell replace it just for peace of mind. Any TB cleaner will do the trick. If you touch it accidently for a second it should be alright just as long as you do not force it open and closed. You will damage the inner parts of the TB assy. Thank you for your time.

I owned a 2017 Mazda CX-5 and over the years trying my very best maintaining it myself and with six years at 140,000 the troubles were very minimal. Regular routine including keeping the throttle body grime free but there's one thing that I never had any success dealing most "harnessees" inside of any car. I suck at it and if I'm not familiar with it I will always destroy it while trying and ask questions later. And regarding my Cx-5 I never did figured out how to remove that throttle body harness and over the years. Over the years I would just let it sat on top of the air filter box and clean it there after removing it out of the snorkle and the intake. I was so sad as I watch this video with anticipation that you will mention something about it but you just removed it so lightning fast it was like Clint Eastwood killing both The Bad and The Ugly with just one bullet. Yeah it was fast.

GDI intake valve cleaner is safe to use , just have to use it as per the manual . i believe you only need to loosen the intake hose and slide in the CRC intake nozzle and spray the cleaner every 2 to 3 second interval while someone inside the car hold the gas pedal to 3000rpm for a couple of minutes . But please do read the CRC cleaner manual prior doing this.

@FelixDanGarasiAuto 2 жыл бұрын

yes it will be reset, i think you can also re activate the i stop feature after wards. Have a browse on google im sure you will find the how to’s. TB relearn is to let it idle for 10 minutes and then press n hold the gas pedal on 3000rpm for 3 to 5 mins then to 4000rpm to 3 to 5 mins.

After cleaning the throttle body and MAF sensor I have 1500 rpm with warm start and I can´t get more than 2000 rpm with full throttle. I also have check enginge light and traction control warning in the dashbord on. It was running perfectly fine before. Did I broke the throttle body? I have disconnected the battery for 1 hour hopping to reset the TB, but no luck. Ifull open the TB while cleaning it. What can I do? Is there a way to quickly restart the ECU and do throttle relearning with Skyactive?

@FelixDanGarasiAuto 4 жыл бұрын

Please check all wiring make sure it is connected properly. By the way did u force it open the TB while cleaning ? If you have you might damage the electricity inside of the TB. to confirm this you will need a OBD tool scanner / MSDS scanner to see the fault. But then again do a recheck and disconnect the battery for 10 mins and restart the car.

Hey ive been having an issue with my 2014 mazda 6 starting up fine, then during idle it goes up to 1500 rpm in park or stopped in drive. I cleaned the throttle body as it was very dirty, now the issue is amplified slightly with idling at a higher rpm, is there a way to reset the throttle, so it knows what to idle at? If so, how do we reset it?

Have you done the relearn process or reset ecu by disconnecting the battery for 10 mins. Then Let the car idle for 5 mins , hold the rev to 2000rpm for 3 - 5 mins , hold the rev to 3000rpm for 3 - 5 mins . Then let the car idle for 5 mins. Shut off the car and restart it after a 5 mins.

@taichihead42 Ай бұрын

Hi Felix Dan, how's life in your part of the world. Yes i guess that is a good thing but its like the fuel gauge computer doesn't know exactly what the range is as i drive, for example when i got into my car today, my fuel range was approximately 410 km's i drove about 18 miles which is 30 kms. My fuel gauge is still reading 400 km's range. My car seems to be using way less fuel but my computer seems to be a little confused while i am driving and keeps recalculating the driving range. Before i cleaned my throttle body the digital clock would drop down digit by digit in a much more orderly fashion, more predictable. BTW my throttle body was dirty and some of the carbon would not come off, I kept the old gasket as it was perfect. I followed yr instructions very carefully and made sure not to touch the butterfly value or open it. I do a lot of maintenance on my car. My Mazda is very simple to work on. I very rarely let anyone touch it as i prefer to fix things myself. God bless you brother.🙏 Love yr channel.
