Kaymaxi2222:
just change your throttle body, and has for you car been more louder most likely they didn't couple your air box properly that's why you are hearing the sound now
Thank you, will try this. Also, is the "injector mouth" regarded as the "throttle body"?

Has anyone experienced this issue with a Honda Civic?
While accelerating, the car suddenly refused to go past about 33 km/h and the check engine light came on. This continued until I parked and switched off the engine. About an hour later, when I restarted the car, acceleration was normal again, but the check engine light remained on and only cleared the next day.
After about three days of normal driving, the same problem happened again while climbing a bridge — the speed would not go past ~33 km/h and the car felt like it was about to stall under the load. The check engine light came on again.
I took it to a mechanic who scanned the code and got P2135. From what I’ve read, this relates to the throttle body (throttle position sensor / accelerator pedal position correlation). The mechanic called it the “injector mouth” and recommended servicing or replacing it. I checked with another mechanic who confirmed that locally (in Nigeria) the throttle body is often referred to as the injector mouth.
I asked him to service it first. It’s been about two weeks since then and the limited-speed issue hasn’t returned. However, I still notice occasional mild jerking when I press the accelerator gently, and the engine sound seems slightly louder than before.
Has anyone dealt with this (especially the P2135 code) on a Civic? How did you resolve it?
(I’ve attached the scan showing the error code.)

It is possible I can do over 40km - 50km with a 5k fuel on a Sunday wey traffic no dey,
Seriously?? At how much fuel per litre?? I'm sure not at this 1,300 rate unless maybe it's a single trip highway ride.

Resumed fully back today after a while away. I guess they've increased fare a bit coz it is a bit improvement from what it used to be but it is not enough, fuel is not cheap. Another factor could be the weather that increased price a bit. God help us


Started from 12 and closed by 6pm. This was achieved with 20k fuel. 20k usually gross 60k minimum before now it barely does 50k.
20k fuel for about 70km drive. Is it with AC on or not... I'll like to confirm if this is the average fuel consumption rate for every cars or some cars are able to cover more distance than this

How strong is the engine?
Has it been worked on?
Like changing of gaskets or ringing it?
Engine weakness can cause this too, is it the same in the morning and evening when the wether is not too hot?
Did you convert to CNG?
Engine has not been tampered with, it's the same as long as the AC is on.

Did you just noticed this behaviour?

Is your car using the right OEM compressor made for the car model?

If yes, you might also be experiencing slow cooling at idle on hot afternoon.

Symptoms are that when u reach Traffic light the pressure from compressor to Condenser builds up and makes the compressor hard to turn, so when you intend to resume acceleration this would also affect cause engine has to work hard to roll the compressor from idle.
Thank you. I recently just begin to notice it. The compressor is a tokunbo but been using same since about a year now. What is the most common cause of this?

My car struggle to accelerate mostly when my AC is on. Mostimes when i slow down, and i attempt to accelerate again, there is a kind of lagging when i accelerate unless i press the throttle very hard. All of these happen mostly when the AC is on. When it's not on, the acceleration is fine, it doesn't struggle to work...
Car is Honda civic 08 model, any possible solution??
