Brilliant video. Cleaned throttle body. Done 180000 miles. Really dirty. Car drives alot better. Next will be egr in a month.
Thanks mate for doing the vid.

you will be amazed if you take off inlet manifold and see all the gunk in it...clean inside off it with oven cleaner....while that's off clean egr Valve and egr pipe which it also full of crud...results are very positive and it let's your engine breathe better...improved power and mpg

Hi, just cleaned my complete air manifold. I took it of the engine because it smokes a lot and runs like a tractor in the morning for about 30 seconds to a minute. After that it's fine. Nevertheless I didn't clean the " throttle body" though and the problem is still there. Next I'm going to do is clean it like in your video. If it doesn't help it doesn't hurt anyway! Thanks for the video!

Hello. Great video! I’m thinking about cleaning my throttle body. Can I use MAF cleaner to clean IAT sensor?

[fluidefluide]

Thanks for this very helpful video. Much appreciated.

I saw your issue in comments below. It might be EGR. PUt an aluminum or metal blanking EGR and you will be fine. It will reduce oil steam emission in engine and throttle body will be more cleaner later. Also Sometimes theory le body can leaking because The air has oil steam . I personally put Silicon And plastic glue all around this piece And no more leak, better performance

Thanks for the video. I am trying to get rid of sporadic engine power hick ups, momentary loss of power and sometimes a just bit jerky idling (no biggy but I can feel it does not run smooth) on a 2008 Citroen C5 2.0 Hdi and was wondering if the throttle body could be the culprit. How do you know when to clean and when to replace the throttle body?

Nice video. I had my Volvo not starting yesterday, today I just removed the hoses from the throttle body it started. I reconnected the hoses and it now starts with the second try. Is it a case it just needs cleaning?
Can I use carburetor cleaning spray?

[bottletree]

Thanks for taking the time making this video it's a real help. I have the 2 litre diesel 136 bhp in the cmax. On start up first thing in morning the throttle is really poor, but rest of time it's perfect. I've bought the carb cleaner and will do this tomorrow. Just one question, do you have to do a throttle body reset?

[RikAindow]

Great video but i am curious, why does this throttle body have two air intakes? Is this version a twin turbo?

The version in the Mk4 Mondeo only has one air intake..

[ezrihayat]

What are the symptoms that you need to clean this?

[slaterryan]

Good guide. I did this the other day but I think my valve is sticking and have ordered a used throttle body that has been tested. Do you think it is ok to use throttle and intake cleaner spray? I'm just a bit unsure with the throttle body in these engines being plastic. Many thanks

[marianionsimonca]

thank you for very good videos for my volvo S40

[harypotter]

Hi ! And thank you for the video ! Can i clean throttle body with CARBURETOR END CHOKE CLEANER SPRAY ? Thanks again !

Hi mr fix, love your videos.
I have a ford galaxy TDCi 2.0., I have a slight hesitation between 1500 and 2000 rpm, only when under very light throttle or when no throttle, have had a new fuel filter fitted and don’t have any DTCs,
I was searching and then came across a post about how cruise controls slow cars down in a diesel car, reward that it’s buy closing of the air in the egr throttle body.... that’s when I came back to your site and watched the reason, when I have cruise control on it all works fine but recently if I go down hill it does not slow down, so my thinking was that it could be the throttle sticking as if air is still getting past the flap it would not slow the car leaving me to think it could be the same reason why it’s giving hesitation at low revs...

Sorry about the long post
Many thanks
Steve

great video, , what size hose are the vacuum lines?mine all need replacing

[Shrekeo]

Great tutorial! My 407 2.0 HDI has recently lost power, I have been trying to find faults and have found that one of the flaps on mine has no return action and just flaps around without any resistance, could this be the cause? Thanks.

[Dan-pqwc]

Hello, at 2:50 you disconnect a hose line, I have found out that it controls the butterfly flaps.
But when I bought my car it was unplugged completely(there is also a screw in the hose to block it off). Any reason why it was unplugged ?
Car seems to drive fine.

[fatixnet]

Hello, was there a noticeable performance increase after cleaning?

[MarkusAlx]

Hello friend. Great job, very useful video !
With your help and videos I'm trying to eliminate the P2141 DTC code from a 2.0 TDCi Ford C-max 2007 car. Unfortunately this cleaning procedure haven't eliminated the DTC code. Do you have any ideas what to check, clean next ?

Thanks a lot in advance
