Nissan Serena Throttle Body Cleaning Malaysia
Serena MR20DD direct injection: throttle body carbon at 60,000–80,000 km. Symptoms: rough idle, light-throttle hesitation. Spray clean or full removal. Always do idle relearn after cleaning. Direct injection + stop-start means faster buildup than a conventional port-injected engine.

- Rough idle especially on cold start = likely throttle carbon after 60,000 km
- Combined with fuel injector cleaner treatment for best idle improvement result
