Honda J35Y Throttle Body 16400-5J6-A01

Honda J35Y Throttle Body – Genuine OEM Electronic Throttle Control

This Honda J35Y throttle body (part number 16400-5J6-A01) is the genuine Honda throttle body used on J35Y5 and J35Y6 engines. If your factory Honda throttle body is sticking, hanging at idle, or throwing throttle and VSA lights, this is the correct J35Y5 throttle body replacement / J35Y6 throttle body part to bring the car back to how it left the dealer.

As an OEM Honda throttle body, it matches the original casting, electronics, and calibration, so it drops right into the factory Honda drive-by-wire throttle system with no drama. The ECU already knows this unit, so idle, part-throttle, and tip-in feel like they should—no weird flare, no random hunting. Swap this in when the old Honda OEM electronic throttle gets carboned up or fails, and you’ll typically clear hesitation, rough idle, and most Acura electronic throttle control warnings tied to a worn throttle body.

This factory Honda throttle body is a straight bolt-on for the listed chassis—no adapters, no tuning required for stock setups. You keep all the stock safeguards and drivability, which matters on heavier rigs like the Acura MDX throttle body and Honda Pilot throttle body applications, as well as the Honda Ridgeline throttle body. If you’re chasing OEM-level reliability rather than hacking together used parts or cheap aftermarket, this Honda throttle body upgrade is simply putting the car back to the spec Honda intended.
