[QUOTE="Rob Lancaster, post: 177115, member: 6154"] Since were talk'n cars, the idle in the 2011 Honda Civic is stumbling way too much. So I went through the 7- & 3/4-inch-high Honda manual, or as I call it, (the bible of the vehicle) ... I scanned it and followed all the diagnostic procedures and it all pointed to a dirty throttle body. So I removed it and cleaned it the way the book told me to do it. After I re-installed the throttle body, I checked the throttle positioning setting with the scanner. It showed all good and no-fault codes found. Time to fire it up and see how she runs. He shoots! He scores!! She runs perfect! Nice! Next up, the rear tint is waisted so that needs replacement. After that I am waiting for the front brake sensors to start squeaking. Pretty soon!!! I already have the caliper kits and pads and my friend has a good machine shop to cut the rotors... I must have cut a thousand rotors and drums in my days at the shop.
