How to clean the throttle body of a Hyundai IX35

Model: Hyundai ix35 MK 1 - Years: 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015
Part: Throttle body

Video tutorial

In this video, we will see how to clean the throttle body of a Hyundai IX35: open the bonnet and remove the air filter along with its intake hose. Once this component is removed, we can take off the hoses leading to the throttle body and finally remove the entire piece, using an extension to clean it comfortably on a workbench.

Place it in a suitable container and clean the part with a specific cleaner, for example, the CRC Throttle Body cleaner with code 112813516284 available on eBay for £12.50 + £5.50 for delivery; brush it with a soft brush and then dry it with a lint-free microfiber cloth (we recommend wearing gloves throughout the operation).

Reassemble the valve, again using our extension, and then replace the air filter box with its intake hose.

And that's it.

How to Activate the Disabled TRC on the Toyota Yaris?

As the video clearly shows, disabling or activating the traction control (TRC or ESP) on the Toyota Yaris is very simple. By default, the traction system activates every time the vehicle is started. To disable it, simply press the button depicting a skidding car located in the centre of the vehicle where the controls are, such as the hazard lights and the radio, but near the handbrake. Once disabled, the TRC off light will illuminate on the dashboard. To reactivate it, just press the same button again.
