Common Symptoms of a Failing Throttle Body (Opel Antara 2.4L)

• Unstable idle, “hunting,” or engine stalling at stops

• Check Engine Light (CEL) – common DTCs: P0120, P0122, P2112, P2119, P2101, P2135-

• Hesitation or flat spot during acceleration

• Poor throttle response / delayed acceleration

• Reduced power / limp mode

• Rough idle that improves when throttle is applied

• Engine dies when coming to a stop

• Poor fuel economy

These symptoms are frequently reported for high-mileage Antara and Captiva vehicles when the throttle body components wear out or carbon buildup occurs.-

Installation & Adaptation Tips

IMPORTANT: After replacing the Electronic Throttle Body (ETB) on Opel Antara / Chevrolet Captiva, a throttle self-learning / idle relearn procedure is REQUIRED. Some diagnostic tools offer a “Throttle Body Reset” special function.-

Step-by-Step Procedure:

For Opel Antara 2.4L / Chevy Captiva: The above procedure typically works. If issues persist, use a professional diagnostic scanner (e.g., GM MDI / Tech2 / OPCOM) to perform a “Throttle Body Adaptation” or “Idle Relearn”. After replacement, it may take a few drive cycles for the ECU to fully adapt to the new throttle body.-

How to Ensure You Get the Correct Part

1. Confirm your vehicle is an Opel Antara (2012) or Chevrolet Captiva (2011–2018) with the 2.4L petrol engine (LE5 / LE9 / Z24SED). Diesel models are NOT compatible.-

2. Check your original part number on the existing throttle body.

3. Match your OE number with 12632093BA, 12670836, 12632093, or 12669148.

4. Verify the connector has 6 pins (OEM specification for this application).

5. Contact us with your VIN or a photo of your original part if unsure.

After-Sales & Disclaimer

• Pre-installation check: Inspect the throttle body for any defects. Verify the OE number and connector type (6-pin) before installation.

• Compatibility: This throttle body is for 2.4L naturally aspirated petrol engines ONLY. It will NOT fit Antara / Captiva diesel variants (2.0L, 2.2L CDTI) or older 3.2L V6 models without verification. Antara (2006–2015) and Captiva share the same Theta platform – fitment applies to both.-

• Gasket requirement: A new mounting gasket is strongly recommended for proper sealing and to prevent vacuum leaks.

• Professional installation recommended: While installation is straightforward, proper adaptation is critical. If you are not comfortable performing the relearn procedure, professional installation is recommended.

• Warranty: This product carries a 12-month warranty against manufacturing defects. The motor and sensors are covered for 24 months.
