How often should the Roewe i6 throttle be cleaned?

Roewe i6 throttle is cleaned every 20,000-30,000 kilometers. If the throttle is not very dirty, you can directly clean the throttle with cleaning agent without removing the throttle. But if the throttle is removed and cleaned, it will be cleaner and neater. The following are the specific cleaning steps:

1. Find the throttle position, and connect the air filter behind the air inlet;

2. Remove the hose connecting the throttle valve and the air cleaner first, and then remove the air cleaner assembly;

3. Then remove the throttle cable, unscrew the fixing bolt and remove the throttle;

4. Apply special cleaner or carburetor cleaner, spray it directly on the throttle, wait for the organic solvent to dissolve the carbon deposit, and dry it for 1-2 minutes.

In addition, there is a cleaning method without disassembling the throttle, which only needs to spray the cleaning agent directly into the throttle when the engine is running. The practice of many 4S shops and maintenance points is to spray cleaning agent into the accelerator while stepping on it to the end. At this time, white smoke will appear in the car, mainly because the cleaned stains are strongly ignited by the suction cylinder and then discharged. This cleaning method is very harmful to the car, so it is recommended to disassemble and clean it, which is less harmful to the car.
