So I've noticed in extreme cold weather...I’d say 15 or below that the throttle is acting funny. I let the car warm up for a few minutes or so but it's still not up to operating temp. I'm not a big fan of the DBW and was wondering if anyone else has noticed the car acting funny. I'll be in first or second and trying to maintain a slow speed or slowly accelerating and the car gets jerky like your shaking on the peddle or something....once the cabin and car warms up the car is normal...just the first minute or two when she's cold? Could the cold be affecting the sensors on the DBW system? I don't know the workings behind the DBW system but it freaks me out a little. anyone???

 

i believe there was a recall on the 2006 civic accelerator petals. id just talk to the honda dealer

 

Yeah I'm planning on stopping in and asking about it....It's not a huge deal but it is noticeable. Just seeing if anyone else had similar issues....couldn't find any post on the web.

 

mine 00 does the same thing, but when its like -0 or below..he revs at like 2,000RPM but after letting it run for a couple minits it just idles normal

 

i hate it when its -0 outside

 

Well I always let it warm up enough to where the idle drops....it has nothing to do with the high idle for warming the engine. I'll post more after I talk to the dealer.

And I also hate when it's -0......I wake up every morning asking myself why I'm in MN.[>:]

at least I can look forward to Mazatlan SB 2006 in 10 days! woo hoo! [8D]

 

i live in MN and i love it.

 

I love the summers....just not the cold sloppy winters.
