I have a 2007 Nissan Altima. 2.5L 4cyl.
When coming out of a coast the car [feels like the throttle] hesitates/cuts out for a brief second. It is very intermitted.
I took the car to Nissan dealership. The service manager finally caught it on the scanner. They mentioned a weak signal [didn’t say to what]. They replaced the battery and did a throttle body treatment/cleaning [thought was off with the weak signal], no parts replaced. Improved for a while.
Getting frustrated I replaced the throttle body. Did the relearn with the starter button method. Idle actually improved/dropped the rpm slightly and ran better. Improved some. Didn’t correct the issue.
I have an Autel mk900bt. After a few live data drive tests. I notice the close throttle switch coming on in some of the runs.
I need to get this resolved to confidently commute to work. let me know your thoughts.
Thanks in advance. Joseph.
