Subaru 16175AA223 Genuine Throttle Body Gasket — for EJ20 Turbo Engines
A rough idle, hesitation on acceleration, or a check engine light for intake-related codes — these are common signs that your throttle body gasket may need replacement . The gasket is installed between the throttle body and the intake manifold, creating an airtight seal that prevents unmetered air from entering the engine . Over time, exposure to heat and oil can cause the gasket to harden or deform, leading to vacuum leaks and performance issues . Replacing it with this genuine Subaru part restores a proper seal and ensures stable engine operation.
This is a factory-original Subaru throttle body gasket (OE part number 16175AA223), specifically designed for EJ20 turbo engines. It is manufactured to Subaru’s exact specifications, ensuring a perfect fit and a reliable seal . This is the same gasket sold at Subaru dealerships.
