Throttle Body

Throttle Bodies – Precise Airflow Control for Smooth Starting & Stable Idle

The throttle body plays a critical role in how modern engines start, idle and respond to driver input. It controls the amount of air entering the engine based on accelerator pedal position and ECU commands. On modern vehicles, throttle bodies are electronically controlled, meaning accuracy and signal integrity are essential for correct engine operation.

When a throttle body becomes contaminated with carbon buildup, oil vapour or dust, or when the internal motor or position sensor begins to fail, drivers often experience hard starting, high or unstable idle, hesitation and sudden limp mode. These symptoms are frequently misdiagnosed as fuel or ignition problems, leading to unnecessary repairs.

Why Choose Our Throttle Bodies

• Application-Specific Fitment – Designed to match OE airflow characteristics, mounting points and electrical connections for your exact vehicle.
• Accurate Throttle Position Control – Ensures the ECU receives precise feedback for smooth idle, predictable acceleration and stable startup.
• Built for Real-World Conditions – Engineered to handle heat, dust, stop-start traffic and short-trip driving common in South Africa.
• Prevents Idle & Starting Issues – Helps eliminate hunting idle, over-revving, stalling and limp mode conditions caused by worn or contaminated units.
• Workshop-Trusted Reliability – Chosen by workshops that want to avoid repeat comebacks and sensor-related fault codes.

Restore proper airflow control and protect your engine management system by replacing a faulty or worn throttle body with a quality, application-correct unit.
