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.

Suzuki XL-7 V6-3.6L - Check Engine Light is on - Chesterfield, Virginia
Chad was very knowledgeable and friendly. I asked for a diagnostic check on our Suzuki with a check engine light. He thoroughly checked the car and gave recommendations for corrective actions in the future based on his mechanical experience and the advanced diagnostic equipment he brought. I thought he was very honest in the assessment and I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Suzuki SX4 L4-2.0L - Brake Pads Replacement (Front) - Plainsboro, New Jersey
Tom was excellent! Showed up on time and was very friendly. He made the repair and gave me a couple suggestions for other things I might want to look into fixing but I never felt like he was pressuring me just to make a sale. I would definitely recommend him to anyone I know having car troubles.

Suzuki Grand Vitara L4-2.4L - Oil Change - San Francisco, California
Only comment is that the odometer reading sent in a follow up email along with "maintenance recommendations" was wrong. It is way off along with the estimated miles per day. I bike the estimated miles per day, not drive!-P So presumably the suggested maintenance is also wrong. Strangely it then has a link to enter your odometer reading, so not sure if that was totally random message. It made me go back and look at the service report which actually has the correct odometer reading so I guess that maintenance recommendation email seems to be totally random/phishing. But speaking of odometer reading on oil change, although I understand this is an online based service, no sticker/info about the next recommended oil change odometer reading (most oil change places do that).
