This 57mm electronic throttle body (intake air control valve) is a direct throttle body replacement for VAG EA896 2.7 TDI and 3.0 TDI V6 diesel engines across Audi A6 C6, A8 4E, Q7 4L, and VW Touareg. On V6 TDI engines, this valve is used primarily for EGR control, idle stability, and smooth engine shut-down. Equipped with an integrated throttle body position sensor (dual redundant TPS), manufactured to Continental / VDO OEM specifications for precise air metering and long-term reliability.
- Throttle Body Replacement – OEM Quality – Continental / VDO OEM specification. Direct plug-and-play throttle body replacement for VAG EA896 V6 TDI engines – no wiring modification required.
- Throttle Body Position Sensor – Dual Redundant TPS – Integrated throttle body position sensor prevents EGR faults, idle instability, and false error codes.
- Throttle Body Assembly – Complete Unit – Full throttle body assembly with 57mm precision bore, die-cast aluminum housing, stainless steel butterfly valve, and Viton seals.
- Throttle Body Gasket – Compatibility Note – New intake throttle body gasket recommended (sold separately). Ensure a leak-free seal on every throttle body replacement.
- 100% Factory Tested – Thermal cycling, airtightness, and full-stroke angle calibration before shipment.
- Wide Cross-Reference – Matches 059145950A/D/R/H, A2C53249890, A2C53085614, V10810026, 408240245001, and numerous aftermarket references.
- Bore Size: 57mm | Connector: 6-Pin D-Shape (VAG V6 Diesel Standard) | Voltage: 12V
- Engine: VAG EA896 2.7 TDI (BPP) / 3.0 TDI (ASB / BUN / CATA) | Fuel: Diesel
- Housing: Die-Cast Aluminum Alloy | Seal: Viton
- OE Ref: 059145950A / 059145950D / A2C53249890 / V10810026
- Warranty: 12 / 24 Months
Installation must be performed by a professional. After fitting, a throttle body relearn procedure is required to recalibrate the throttle body position sensor baseline — this is standard throttle body service practice for VAG EA896 V6 TDI platforms. Use VCDS/VAG-COM Basic Settings Group 098 or 060 for adaptation. Clear any EGR-related fault codes after installation. Non-professionals should not attempt installation, as improper fitting may result in throttle body malfunction. The instruction manual included in the package is for professional reference only.

Common throttle body symptoms on VAG V6 TDI engines include rough idle, EGR-related fault codes, hesitation on acceleration, unstable RPM at startup, and engine shut-down issues. If basic throttle body cleaning has not resolved the issue, a full throttle body replacement is typically the next step.
This throttle body assembly includes an integrated throttle body position sensor – no separate sensor purchase required. A replacement throttle body gasket is recommended and sold separately.
Compared to dealer throttle body repair cost (often $400–$800+ at an Audi / VW dealership), this direct OEM-quality unit offers significant savings while maintaining factory performance standards. Fits Audi A6 C6, A8 4E, Q7 4L, and VW Touareg with 2.7 TDI or 3.0 TDI V6 diesel engines.
Note: Throttle body adaptation via VCDS/VAG-COM is required after installation. Clear EGR fault codes post-installation. The throttle body gasket is sold separately.
Our price includes only the product and standard shipping. Buyers are responsible for all additional charges (e.g., customs duties, import fees, VAT, insurance). Customs policies vary by country – please check your local import regulations before ordering. If customs clearance fails due to the buyer's reasons, the buyer will be fully responsible, and refunds will not be provided.
