Video: Throttle Body Housing Replacement On Range Rover Full Size 4.2
VIDEO
Have you noticed your Range Rover surge or start to lose throttle response? Watch Doug, our Land Rover Master Technician, as he removes and replaces the throttle body housing demonstrated on a 2008 Range Rover Sport Supercharged. Because of it's location under the hood, the throttle body housing does not get good ventilation. The motor that operates the throttle plate on the housing then deteriorates, due to heat and overheating, and malfunctions. Using our Throttle Housing Part # LR006142G, and Throttle Gasket Part # 4536886G you will resolve this problem. This service is also valid for the LR3, Range Rover Full Size (with Jag Engine) and the Range Rover Sport 2006-2009. Please refer any questions or comments to 1-800-533-2210 or contact us via the question tab.
Part# LR006142G with 4536886G Remove and Install the Throttle Body Housing and Gasket Demonstrated On 2008 Range Rover Sport Supercharged. Hi I'm Doug, your tech support representative here at Atlantic British. And in this video we're going to touch base on something that's not showing up on some of the Supercharged 4.2's, on both the Full Size Range Rover and the Sport. And what's happening is the throttle body's, or actually the motors that operate the throttle plate in the throttle body's are starting to break down from overheating. And how that happens is because of the location of the throttle body. On the regular 4.4 the naturally aspirated it's up front and within the breeze of the fan and it doesn't run as hot, plus it has a cooler in it. Whereas with the Supercharged, it's actually buried back towards the back of the engine down in the area that really doesn't get a lot of ventilation and so it runs in a much hotter area. So we're finding what happens is going down the road under certain conditions all of a sudden the vehicle will surge, start losing throttle response, there's a number of different functions in there. And sometimes it may not even kick a fault code when it happens. So we're finding this seems to be the cause of the majority of them. I've actually done a few over the years, and it does solve that problem. And essentially all you need parts wise is a replacement throttle body. This is original equipment. This is all that you can get right now. The aftermarket companies aren't making these. And a new gasket. And the rest is basically going to be labor to access it and replace it. And you'll see that both are original part numbers and we find that of course they work the best. But again, because of where they're located and the design, they do break down over a period of time. So what I'm going to do is show you how to do the repair on that, and fix that problem. All right, before we begin, what I'm going to do is just give you a quick rundown on some of the tools you may need to do this repair. And as you can see I've got 2 hose pinch pliers, which can be substituted different sizes or small vice grips, so anything in that line. I prefer these because they don't cut into the hose. A long pair of 45 degree angled needle nose, although you can still get in there with a regular needle nose. This just makes the job easier. Small pair of slip joint pliers. Long extension for quarter inch drive along with a 7 millimeter universal. And 8 millimeter deep. A 8 millimeter universal with a shorter extension. You can see I have 2 quarter inch drives here. You can get away with just one. With a 7 millimeter deep. And a straight blade screw driver. Number 3. And a flashlight.What we're going to do now at this point. You'll start your vehicle. Let it sit and idle until it's fully warmed up. Give it a good 6 to 10 minutes. And then just take it for a drive and let everything basically set itself as you're driving. So, when you're ready to get rid of that throttle issue on your Supercharged 4.2 either on the 2006 to 2009 Sport, or the 2006 to 2009 Full Size Range Rover, just give a call to any of our knowledgeable salesmen at 1-800-533-2210. And thanks for watching.
