Throttle Body Range From Nissens Automotive

Despite its ongoing programme to development the premium quality components required for new energy vehicles (NEVs), which include hybrid and battery electric vehicles, Nissens Automotive (Nissens) remains committed to ensuring the independent service and repair industry also has access to the replacement parts it needs today, as well as those it will require in the future.

A great example of this policy is the fact that alongside the replacement parts for advanced heat pumps it offers for the air conditioning systems of the latest NEVs, Nissens has a throttle body range, which is thoroughly designed, developed, manufactured and tested to the highest Nissens Genuine Quality standard, and is part of its expanding Engine Efficiency programme.

The throttle body is part of the engine’s air intake system, sitting between the air filter and the intake manifold, and its role is to adjust the airflow to the engine as the accelerator is used by the driver. It generally includes sensors or valves to ensure its precise control and, in some models, connects to a vacuum line or coolant circuit for its temperature control.

Pushing the accelerator rotates the throttle plate, allowing the intake air through, with the vehicle’s ECU and MAF sensors etc. subsequently adjusting the fuel injection system, to ensure the ideal air/fuel mix is delivered into the combustion chamber to provide optimal engine performance and efficiency.

Developed and tested for excellent performance and long, trouble-free operation, the Nissens throttle body range is thoroughly assessed through a series of functional, high temperature endurance, durability, load and corrosion tests.

In common with its other products, the range encompasses ‘first fit’ products that include the necessary seals, gaskets and clips to ensure their easy and secure installation. In addition to these installation related advantages, comes valuable technical support, but wholesalers supplying the Nissens throttle body range benefit too.

This is because it is optimised to cover a wide variety of models, to ensure effective car parc coverage. So, more than 80 part numbers cater for in excess of 300 original equipment (OE) references, which is a third of the European car parc, but this number will naturally continue to expand, alongside the other products in the growing Nissens portfolio.

The entire Nissens Engine Efficiency programme caters for 9,000 OE numbers and also includes turbos, intercoolers, EGR valves, modules and coolers and is supported with comprehensive vehicle data, with complete product pictures and technical drawings, for easy reference, and so provides the independent service and repair sector with a complete aftermarket solution.
