The Hyundai Sonata average ($96) runs 20% above its median ($80), indicating a tail of high-priced listings — likely low-mileage or remanufactured units pulling the average up.

Our guide covers 11 model years for the Hyundai Sonata (2015–2025) but only 7 for the Fiat 500 (2015–2021), so the Hyundai Sonata data reflects a broader range of generations.

The Hyundai Sonata throttle body is interchangeable across 15 model years versus just 10 for the Fiat 500 — that wider compatibility window means more donor vehicles in salvage yards and tends to push prices lower.

Buyer's checklist

What to check before buying a used throttle body

  • Distinguish between electronic drive-by-wire throttle bodies and traditional cable-actuated units with Idle Air Control (IAC) valves.
  • Check bore diameter and butterfly valve throat for heavy carbon build-up, shaft play, or scoring along the aluminum bore wall.
  • Inspect electronic sensor housing cover and connector pins for moisture entry, cracks, or burnt circuit traces.
  • Verify coolant heating bypass nipple locations and vacuum port configurations, which vary by vehicle region and emission spec.
