What are the causes of Odyssey engine shaking?
1 Answers
Odyssey engine shaking may be due to a dirty throttle body or excessive carbon buildup in the fuel injectors, and it is recommended to clean them promptly. Other causes of engine shaking: Engine mount aging. Car shaking can sometimes be related to aging engine mounts. Engine mounts are essentially the shock absorption system for the engine, responsible for absorbing minor vibrations during engine operation. If the engine mounts are faulty, these vibrations can transfer to the steering wheel and the interior of the vehicle, causing shaking during idle. The engine is most prone to shaking when the vehicle's electrical system is activated during idle. The engine increases its load due to the activation of the electrical system, causing the idle to drop. To compensate for the shaking caused by the idle drop, the engine automatically raises the RPM slightly. Therefore, when the vehicle's electrical system is turned on, especially when starting the car's air conditioning in summer, the engine often shakes. If the shaking during idle does not decrease when the car's air conditioning compressor is running, this shaking is likely caused by aging engine mounts and requires timely replacement of new engine mounts. Uneven tire balancing can also cause shaking. Tire aging, deformation, or bulging can cause shaking during driving, which is far more concerning to drivers than shaking during idle. Shaking during vehicle movement is mostly related to the transmission system, with the most basic issue being tire problems. The role of the engine: The engine is the device that provides power to the car, acting as the heart of the vehicle, determining its power, fuel efficiency, stability, and environmental performance.
