Description
The throttle body is a critical component of the air intake system for 2.0 HDI engines, specifically designed for Peugeot and Citroën vehicles. This throttle body, referenced by product codes 9657522480 and 0345F0, regulates the amount of air flowing into the engine, ensuring optimal combustion and engine performance. It is commonly fitted on engines delivering up to 100 kW of power, such as the RHR variant.
Over time, throttle bodies can become clogged with carbon deposits or wear out mechanically, leading to poor engine response, rough idling, or reduced fuel efficiency. Replacing the throttle body is essential to restore proper air intake control and maintain engine smoothness. Replacement involves detaching the air intake hose, disconnecting the electrical connector, removing mounting bolts, and fitting the new unit with proper calibration if required.
