Throttle body cleaning on 2009 civic
Hi all,
I noticed on my civic the accelerator is sticking between 2000 to 2500 RPM range! and I am sure I need to do the throttle body cleaning.
I am looking for videos or documents to follow since I find it little difficult compare to other cars. The TB is located deep towards windshield.
For now i added a fuel injector cleaner in gas tank. but eventually i need to have TB cleaned.
Please suggest best way to do it.
Thanks in advance!

I just use Carb/Throttle Body cleaner in a spray. The only thing you need to check is that what ever you use doesn't damage 02 sensors & the Cat. They say it on the can. I use the stuff from walmart & it works great.

I actually was looking for video/picture demo on how to unplug air-intake and throttle body cleaning... Since the new civics throttle body is located almost under the windshield.
Thanks in advance!

In that case, I will check the paddle.
I just need to confirmed that 2009 civic has the fly-by wire system.
Thanks again,
