2006 Cadillac DTS Throttle Body Parts and Q&A

• Q: What should be done to clean the throttle body and throttle plate, and what precautions should be taken regarding mileage on 2006 Cadillac DTS?

  A: Deposits in the percentage form may accumulate in the back of the throttle plate over time and mileage, which usually does not pose a big threat but may influence the movement of the throttle valve if too many of them are present. This service is not to be carried out on vehicles, the mileage of which is less than 80,450 km (50,000 mi). Start by detaching the sight shield of the fuel injector and the duct for the air cleaner outlet. Check the throttle bore and throttle body plate as deposits through the opening of the throttle plate to do a comprehensive check. Clean throttle body bore + throttle plate using clean shop towel with GM top engine cleaner (P/N 1052626), AC Delco Carburetor tune-up conditioner (P/N X66P) or equiv. Last but not the least, replace the air cleaner outlet duct and the fuel injector sight shield.
