Hi guys, I've been on this trend and every info has been helpful.
Now I have my own problem. I drive a 2004 accord commonly called EOD but mine is Europe version.

The car is great and never gives me problem but the issue is, each has time I switch my AC on, my rpm goes down and the engine becomes sluggish which makes the car to jack as if it's going to go off on me.

I decided it's probably because my engine power was low so I told my mechanic to beef up the engine power.
Lo and behold, same problem. As soon as I try to move, the rpm goes down.
It runs fine when I'm on a good speed tho but the problem is when I'm in traffic and I have to be slow. Everything shakes and I always end up turning of the AC

Please guys, what could be the problem.
I've met with so many kazeems over this issue and all they tell me is either change plugs or fuel pump.

I've done all that before.

No changes.

I'll really appreciate any solution or advice. Thanks

Also, it's a manual

Picture is my car



nice ride bro

idle air control valve, look up the position online and see if those kazeems blocked it with something or bypassed it(e no deyhard them)

do the iacv first before throttle body. normally the it's the iacv's function to maintain optimal idle rpm for several driving conditions including AC usage..... check that first.

that beef up they did also must be reversed, I'm guessing they tampered with ur idle speed by Messing with the throttle position sensor.... let them undo what they did

Thanks bro, I think I know what you're talking about. They blocked it with a foam. I guess I'll just remove it myself.

Nigerian drivers need saving from the hands of all this mechanics

This should Guide any smart Technician. The black wired end up in a heating coil, and can go either way.

Do you mean vehicle jerks when it goes beyond 3,000 rpm, or vehicle does not go beyond 3,000 rpm?

You have not given us and diagnostic information. Car is in limp mode. It enters limp mode to reduce damage to drivetrain when a fault Pops up.

More than one part failure can cause limp mode. Even transmission components can cause limp mode.

Scan and stop guessing.

No one checked the throttled body sir. They keep checking plug and fuel pump.
A mechanic even said I need to change my engine. I got really mad cuz this car is only a few months old and the engine is super new.

Problem solved?

Ensure a pre purchase inspection is carried out before paying. Much more important if you are buying a Nigerian used vehicle, since most people now have the habit of offloading their car troubles to unsuspecting buyers.
