Does 24242274 fit Cobalt or Gentra?
For 24242274, two different questions are supported at different evidence levels. They should not be collapsed into one claim.
1. The part identity is officially confirmed
GM officially identifies 24242274 as an Automatic Transmission Control Valve Solenoid Filter Plate, Classification OE. That is the hard part identity in E603. Separately, E614 supports bounded Gen1 contexts in specific EPC records for MH9/6T30, MH8/6T40, and MH7/6T45.
This part does not require a model-name assumption. For generation differences, see 24242274 vs 24263196.
2. Cobalt / Gentra fitment is not closed at vehicle-to-RPO level
This is a different evidence layer. E612 records Cobalt/Gentra application clues from industry/dealer sources, but the audit did not close a direct chain of “specific Cobalt/Gentra → RPO → 24242274.” Official identity of the part therefore does not become official fitment for those model names.
A broad vehicle list on a public GM page also cannot be used to infer an RPO. For your own vehicle, use the VIN/RPO identification method.
What can be stated now
- 24242274 as a GM OE filter plate is confirmed (E603).
- Specific Gen1 RPO contexts are confirmed within E614.
- Cobalt/Gentra model-level fitment remains an industry clue, not an OEM/RPO-confirmed conclusion (E612).
- A model name or year alone cannot justify swapping 24242274 for 24263196.
For a specific Cobalt/Gentra, send VIN/RPO and market in the RFQ.
FAQ
- Is 24242274 a genuine GM OE number?
- Yes. GM identity is confirmed in E603.
- Does that prove it officially fits every Cobalt?
- No. E612 separates official identity from the unclosed Cobalt/Gentra fitment layer.
- Can I replace it with 24263196 based on model year?
- Not from model name or year alone.
- How should I verify my vehicle?
- Start with VIN/RPO and the market-specific catalog.
