Chevrolet Traverse Parts
in Dubai
& the UAE
Two Chevrolet Traverses reached dealerships for the 2024 model year. The third-generation VSS-S Traverse, with a fresh 2.5T turbocharged I4, and the Traverse Limited, a second-generation C1XX carryover, both wore the same nameplate that year. Before that, the second-generation C1XX Traverse ran a 3.6L V6 from its 2018 launch through 2023. Before that, the first-generation Lambda Traverse covered 2009 to 2017 with a 3.6L V6 LLT throughout its run. Each generation is a separate parts universe: no fitment crosses between them, and VIN confirmation is the only reliable way to identify which generation you have. We stock ACDelco and GM Genuine at Ras Al Khor for all three Traverse generations. Send your VIN so we confirm the right generation before any part is pulled.
INVENTORY
Chevrolet Traverse Spare Parts: Three Generations on the Shelf
Shelf stock at Ras Al Khor covers all three Chevrolet Traverse generations. Part families in regular stock include brake pads and rotors, front and rear suspension control arms and bushings, wheel bearings, stabilizer bar links, engine and cabin air filters, oil filters, and spark plugs. First-generation Traverse (2009–2017, Lambda platform) and second-generation Traverse (2018–2023, C1XX platform) are both well represented. Third-generation Traverse (2024-on, VSS-S platform) is covered for service parts. The 2024 Traverse Limited, a C1XX carryover model year, draws from the same second-generation C1XX parts as the 2018–2023 Traverse. ACDelco and GM Genuine are the OEM lines for all three generations.
Engine coverage differs by generation. The first-generation Lambda Traverse ran the 3.6L V6 LLT throughout its production run from 2009. The second-generation C1XX Traverse launched with the 3.6L V6 as the standard engine; a 2.0L turbocharged I4 was available on the RS trim only from the 2018 model year but was discontinued starting midway through the 2019 model year, so 2020 through 2023 second-generation Traverses use the 3.6L V6 only. The third-generation VSS-S Traverse runs a 2.5T turbocharged I4 only. Oil filters, air filters, and spark plugs differ across these engine families. Send your year, engine, and VIN on WhatsApp to confirm which parts apply to your build.
GENERATION DECODER
Traverse Generation Decoder: Lambda, C1XX, and VSS-S
The primary fitment risk with the Traverse arrives at the 2024 model year. Chevrolet produced both the all-new third-generation Traverse on the VSS-S platform and a carryover second-generation model called the Traverse Limited on the C1XX platform, selling them under the same nameplate during 2024. First deliveries of the third-generation Traverse commenced in April 2024. The two share a name and nothing relevant to parts: different platforms, different engines, different suspension architecture. The table below maps each Traverse generation and variant to its platform and the parts-relevant changes at each transition.
Within the first-generation Lambda Traverse, the 2013 facelift updated the exterior styling, interior trim, and transmission calibration without documented changes to the suspension architecture, so Lambda service and suspension parts for a 2009 Traverse generally apply to a 2017 model in the same categories. The second-generation C1XX differs completely: a different suspension geometry, a 9-speed automatic transmission standard from launch, and engine-dependent service specifications. Always send the 17-digit VIN on WhatsApp; the VIN resolves the generation, platform, and engine without ambiguity.
| Generation | Years | Platform code | What changes for parts |
|---|---|---|---|
| First generation | 2009–2017 | Lambda | 3.6L V6 LLT throughout; 6-speed automatic; 2013 facelift updated exterior styling, interior trim, and transmission calibration only, suspension architecture unchanged; service and suspension parts do not cross to the C1XX second generation; platform shared with first-generation GMC Acadia and Buick Enclave |
| Second generation | 2018–2023 | C1XX | 3.6L V6 standard throughout; 2.0L turbocharged I4 on RS trim only from 2018, discontinued starting mid-2019 model year; 9-speed automatic standard from launch; suspension geometry differs from Lambda generation; engine choice determines oil filter, air filter, and spark plug specifications; no service parts cross from Lambda |
| Traverse Limited (carryover) | 2024 only | C1XX | Second-generation body produced for a shortened 2024 model year alongside the all-new third generation; shares all C1XX platform parts with 2018–2023 Traverse; VIN required to distinguish from the third-generation 2024 Traverse; ordering a VSS-S third-gen part for this vehicle is a fitment error |
| Third generation | 2024–present | VSS-S | 2.5T turbocharged I4 only; 8-speed automatic; all-new suspension architecture; no parts cross from the C1XX second generation; shares VSS-S platform with the third-generation GMC Acadia |
FITMENT CHECK
Traverse and Acadia: Shared Platforms, Separate Parts Catalogs
The Traverse and the GMC Acadia have shared the same platform at each generation, but they are separate vehicles with separate parts catalogs. The first-generation Traverse (2009–2017, Lambda) shares its architecture with the first-generation GMC Acadia (2007–2016, Lambda), the first-generation Buick Enclave, and the discontinued Saturn Outlook. The second-generation Traverse (2018–2023, C1XX) shares its platform with the second-generation GMC Acadia and the Buick Enclave. The third-generation Traverse (2024-on, VSS-S) shares its platform with the third-generation GMC Acadia. If you also operate a GMC Acadia, the Acadia parts page covers Acadia-specific fitment, including the 2017 dual-body Acadia and Acadia Limited situation that is specific to that nameplate.
Platform-sharing between the Traverse and its GMC Acadia sibling does not mean parts cross-fit freely. Some Lambda-generation service parts may be compatible between the first-generation Traverse, the first-generation Acadia, and the first-generation Enclave, depending on the specific part category, model year, and trim configuration. We do not confirm Traverse-to-Acadia or Traverse-to-Enclave cross-fitment by model name alone. The specific part number is what determines compatibility, and the starting point for that check is the 17-digit VIN for each vehicle. Send the VIN for your Traverse and the part you need on WhatsApp; we check the part against your specific build before confirming.
There is no cross-fitment between Traverse generations. A Lambda first-generation part does not cross to the C1XX second generation, and C1XX second-generation parts do not cross to the VSS-S third generation. The Traverse Limited (2024, C1XX) shares parts with the 2018–2023 second-generation Traverse, not with the 2024 third-generation Traverse. Each generation is a separate architecture, regardless of the model year in which it was sold.
OEM & AFTERMARKET
ACDelco and GM Genuine for Traverse: All Three Generations Covered
ACDelco is the service-parts brand for the Traverse across all three generations. ACDelco Gold (Professional) is the OEM-equivalent tier and the standard replacement choice for brakes, filters, and suspension components. ACDelco Original Equipment (OE) matches the factory part number exactly, the right choice when fitment tolerance is critical, as it can be with suspension geometry-sensitive components on the Lambda and C1XX generations. GM Genuine Parts is the single-tier factory OE line. Both brands are stocked at Ras Al Khor for Traverse applications across all three generations.
Engine-dependent service items for the second-generation C1XX Traverse differ between the 3.6L V6 and the 2.0L turbocharged I4, though the 2.0T was available only on the RS trim from the 2018 model year and was discontinued starting midway through 2019. A second-generation Traverse with a 2.0T engine takes different oil filter and air filter specifications from a 3.6L V6 build in the same model year. Third-generation VSS-S Traverse service items are specific to the 2.5T turbocharged I4. Aftermarket alternatives are available for Traverse applications where the customer requests them or where cost is a factor. The same documented-fault warranty terms apply as for the genuine lines: electrical components are non-returnable once fitted regardless of brand. WhatsApp the year, engine, and VIN and we advise the correct line for your build.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between the 2024 Chevrolet Traverse and the 2024 Traverse Limited?
- They are two different vehicles on different platforms. The 2024 Chevrolet Traverse is the all-new third generation built on the VSS-S platform, powered by a 2.5T turbocharged I4, with first deliveries commencing in April 2024. The 2024 Traverse Limited is the second-generation body continued on the C1XX platform during the third-generation production ramp-up. The two share no platform, no suspension architecture, and no engine service parts. Send your 17-digit VIN and we confirm which vehicle you have before any part is ordered.
- Can GMC Acadia parts fit on a Chevrolet Traverse of the same generation?
- The first-generation Traverse and first-generation Acadia share the Lambda platform, so some service parts may cross-fit depending on the specific part category, model year, and trim. The same applies to the second-generation C1XX pairing. We do not confirm Traverse-to-Acadia cross-fitment by model name alone. Send the VIN for your Traverse and the part you need; we check the specific part against your build and confirm whether it applies before you order.
- What engines did the second-generation Chevrolet Traverse use, and which years had the 2.0T option?
- The second-generation C1XX Traverse launched for the 2018 model year with two engine options: a 3.6L V6 available across all trim levels, and a 2.0L turbocharged I4 available on the RS trim in front-wheel-drive configuration only. The 2.0L turbocharged option was discontinued starting midway through the 2019 model year, so 2020 through 2023 second-generation Traverses use the 3.6L V6 only. The 2024 Traverse Limited, the C1XX carryover, also uses the 3.6L V6. Send your year and VIN to confirm which engine and associated service parts apply to your build.
- How do I confirm which Traverse generation I have before ordering parts?
- The 17-digit VIN is the reliable way to confirm your Traverse generation and engine code. The VIN encodes the model year, platform, engine, and build configuration. Send your VIN on WhatsApp along with the part you need; we decode the generation from the VIN and confirm the correct part before anything is pulled from the shelf. Do not rely on the model year alone for Traverse: the 2024 model year includes both the third-generation VSS-S Traverse and the second-generation C1XX Traverse Limited, two vehicles with no shared parts.
