    Yeah, it was a dumb question. Wasn't thinking at the time. Do they ever clean the throttle body during service?

    My wheels are good, happens with other mags I put too. Got it back and had about 15 fault codes which can only be cleared by their computer not by disconnecting the battery, so they cleared them and they didn't fix the vibration which only happens under load not when just rolling or cruising. They claim it could be the drive shaft that flexes in the joint at the gearbox, not the actual CV joint but can only test it by putting new CV's, I will go talk to the CV specialist and see what he thinks. Feels like buckled wheels when under load above 2000rpm and usually above 70 or so K's, I know it is not my wheels, coils, injectors, spark plugs.
    Also I asked why my engine is kinda vibrating at idle and he said most Euros do that above 120000k's and it may be due to the engine mounts stiffening up over time, other than that he knows it is a problem that Honda has no answers for.
    Honda charged $46 fr the diagnosis and testing, not too bad asI was expecting more, also got the recall jobs done while there.

    Don't worry my idle is noticeable at times and my car has only done 20,000kms

    It is a 4-cylinder engine, of course there will be some vibration at idle!

    Nope, and I have not cleaned mine in my 5 years of ownership either.

    most prob not,

    doesn't get too dirty but if you do i think you can use carby/throttle body cleaner spray... but some of the dirty stuff is caked on.

    You would think over time it would build up a layer of debris. With all the crap and particles in the air they must be getting deposited where ever the air is travelling. Or is there some sort of filter for this purpose?

    your air filter is what keeps it clean.

    but it still builds up dirt from the fumes and dirt particles.
    if your worried that your butterfly in the TB is going to get jammed then you can clean it yourself.

    No way. It may be an easy job for some but when I take things apart they never seem to go back in the right order again. I'll just pay to have it done. I can't afford to be without my car.
