Product Details

The Cardone 6E-3041 throttle body regulates incoming air through an electronically controlled throttle plate, motor, and integrated sensors. It is built to match original equipment specifications so the engine control module can manage airflow accurately across idle, acceleration, and cruise conditions. This matters on vehicles such as the Chevrolet Cruze, Chevrolet Sonic, Buick Encore, and Chevrolet Trax, where precise throttle control supports smooth drivability and proper engine performance.

This part cross-references GM 55565489 for the same application.

• Throttle response problems caused by a worn electronic throttle body
• Check engine light concerns related to throttle position sensor faults
