What is the throttle valve cable all about?

The throttle valve cable is a key component of a transmission system. The throttle valve cable is responsible for maintaining proper shift feel, controlling line pressure, and both partial and full throttle downshifts. The throttle valve cable is connected to the throttle lever, and is responsible for controlling it. Regardless of how much torque your engine is generating, the throttle valve cable will be able to keep the shift feel and transmission line pressure in balance.

Keep in mind:

  • When the throttle valve cable is adjusted, the entire transmission system should be inspected.
  • Replacing the carburetor can sometimes make it impossible for the throttle valve cable to be properly adjusted.

Our recommendation:

Your transmission is one of the most important parts of your vehicle to service. During maintenance and tuneups every part of the suspension should be checked, including the throttle valve cable. Always follow your car’s suggested maintenance schedule for the transmission.

What are the common symptoms indicating you need to adjust the throttle valve cable?

  • Transmission (gear) does not shift properly

How important is this service?

The transmission is what is used to switch gears so that your vehicle runs smoothly and optimally. A key part of this system is the throttle lever, which keeps the shift feel and transmission line pressure in balance at all times. The throttle lever is controlled by the throttle valve cable. One of the key roles that the throttle lever and throttle valve cable play is that they’re responsible for downshifting your vehicle when it is going uphill. The throttle valve cable helps the engine find the right gear to maximize torque. When the throttle valve cable is not properly adjusted, a key component of the transmission is lost. Since the transmission is such a finely tuned machine, an unadjusted throttle valve cable can result in severe damage to the transmission.

Saturn Vue V6-3.5L - Headlight Bulb Replacement (Passenger Side Low Beam) - Colorado Springs, Colorado
From start to finish, Brad’s work was superior in every way. From initial diagnosis, to describing what repairs were necessary, to the final summary of work completed, Brad kept me informed all along. He answered all of my questions thoroughly and with great patience, while exhibiting a level of efficiency and professionalism that was nothing short of extraordinary. He went above and beyond to help me coordinate scheduling with my daughter, was very helpful during the online payment process, and described the recommended repairs to me in a way that I could understand. Brad’s superb “people skills”, combined with the above described work ethic, created an exceptional level of service for which I am truly grateful. This was my first experience with yourmechanic.com, and it could not have been any better, thanks to Brad!! With sincere thanks and appreciation, Nick (Norman, OK)

Saturn Vue V6-3.5L - Timing Belt - Tempe, Arizona
Showed up 10:15 am for 9:30 appt. Aside from this hiccup, starting out work is Awesome. Professional, attention to details of work and inspection. Recommendations of minor issues, oil change, filter, change. Brake fluid change, general maintence that most people should be capable of doing on their own. Diego offers price quote if You want him to complete. 1st experience with mechanic site, but seeing and hearing how work was done would recommend Diego and mechanic site reasonable or below cost pricing and they are mobile to come do work at any location.
