It plays a crucial role in managing air intake by connecting the throttle valve to the intake manifold, ensuring optimal airflow for efficient combustion. Proper functioning of this component directly affects engine responsiveness, fuel efficiency, and emission levels.
Commonly sought after by both professional mechanics and car enthusiasts performing self-repairs, this part is often identified by product code 0345A5. It fits various Citroën and Peugeot models equipped with 2.0 or 2.2 HDI engines, typically including popular models such as Citroën C4, Peugeot 307, and similar vehicles from the PSA group.
Replacement of the throttle body neck is recommended whenever symptoms such as rough idling, reduced power, or irregular throttle response occur. These issues often stem from wear, carbon buildup, or damage to the component over time due to continuous exposure to heat and pressure within the intake system.
Installation generally requires removing the air intake hose and disconnecting associated sensors or connectors, followed by unbolting the faulty neck and replacing it with this new, precise-fit component. It is advisable to clean the surrounding areas and inspect related parts during replacement to ensure overall system integrity.
