Took it to get repaired. Said it was the throttle body. Got a new one installed. Few days later it's acting up again and I haven't taken it in again. Today, I was in first gear from a stop and the car started jerking and the car is shaking. I drive it home and it's fine. I don't know what the heck to do. help.
When the garage replaced the throttle body ,what did they replace .there is 2 sensors on the throttle body. 1 is the idle air control valve and the other is your throttle position senor. it sounds to me your have a transmission problem. are there any codes
I have no idea. I'll call them tomorrow...since it's sunday...Of course it happens on Sunday. And when you say transmission problem...what does that mean?
Codes, i hope so. I'm going to take it in tomorrow.
what is the make and model and year please. it can be a shift solenoid in the transmission. this is my link to my garage I am on facebook if you have a questions or when they look at it please let me know. https://www.facebook.com/TedsRepairs
It is 2007 VW rabbit 2.5. Thanks for all of your help!
How much could that be?!
is it a automatic transmission. the cost would depend on where you are . it sounds like the last garage you went to does not know much,to replace a part that did not fix the problem.this my link to my garage I am on facebook and would like to know what they find . before agree to a repair ask me https://www.facebook.com/TedsRepairs
It is a manual transmission. I'm in the bay area in Ca. Should I take it back to the same place or just take it to a new shop? I'll friend you on FB and keep you posted.
I would take it back to the garage and see what we say first. I know the games garages play that is why I work for myself and help out the best i can you have me on your side ,so you do not walk in a lone
what the codes to I know there is a code
seeing it is a automatic transmission forget that the transmission is the problem. the problem is with what those guys replaced
It's a manual transmission.
yes and a manual transmission would not do cause those problems . it is something that was replaced at the garage. take it back and see what they ask,and I want to know please

SOURCE: won't shift out of low,speedometer doesn't work
see my comments, not 100% sure that it was the out put speed censor or not, but after reconnecting the wires to a new censor and reconnecting the battery and clearing codes it worked. connection was not clipped may have been loose

yes, this is the case of a failed throttle body, in which case it needs replaced, the car is getting too much fuel causing the high idle. this needs replaced asap. you could proably find a small independant honda shop that could do the work for less.

Hello
The engine
and transmission in this cars drive train are fully
electronically controlled by a computer called the PCM (Power Train
Control Module). Whenever a problem like this occurs the computer
stores a record of the problem (there are of course some exceptions
to this, like the fuel pump for instance) in the form of a fault code
in its memory, to read these fault codes you must have the systems
memory scanned with a special tool. Once the fault code(s) are read
you then must perform the appropriate diagnostic testing to find and
resolve the problem(s) DO NOT REPLACE ANY PARTS UNTIL THE
DIAGNOSIS & TESTING IS COMPLETED.
