Throttle Body and Motor for the engine intake assembly on the 3.0L V6 Diesel Gen 2 engine.

In diesel applications, the throttle body is primarily used to modulate exhaust gas recirculation flow, support engine braking, and enable clean engine shutdown. The motor drives the throttle plate in response to signals from the engine management system.

Frequently asked questions

What does the throttle body and motor do on the 3.0 V6 diesel?
The throttle body houses the throttle valve and an integrated electric motor actuator. On the 3.0L V6 diesel Gen2 it mainly modulates exhaust gas recirculation flow, supports engine braking, and allows a clean engine shutdown. The motor moves the throttle plate on command from the engine management system.
Where does the throttle body sit and which system does it belong to?
The throttle body is part of the engine intake on the 3.0L V6 diesel Gen2 and typically mounts at the intake manifold or intake ducting. It works within the engine management and EGR system rather than controlling power directly, as a diesel manages output mainly through fuelling.
What are the signs the throttle body or motor has failed?
A failing throttle body or motor typically triggers an engine fault code and can cause limp mode, rough idle, poor EGR control, or an engine that will not shut down cleanly. Because the motor and valve are one assembly, the complete unit is usually replaced rather than repaired.
Which vehicles does this throttle body fit?
This throttle body fits the 3.0L V6 diesel Gen2 (mono and twin turbo) in the Discovery 5, Range Rover L405, Range Rover Sport, and Range Rover Velar. Confirm the engine is the Gen2 3.0 diesel and use your VIN to verify before ordering.
