Description
Product Overview
This electric coolant pump is designed to circulate the engine coolant fluid that plays a crucial role in heating the intake air. By doing so, it improves engine efficiency and ensures optimal temperature regulation within the intake manifold. The pump contributes significantly to maintaining engine performance and reducing emissions, especially in PSA Citroën and Peugeot vehicles.
Typically found in models such as Citroën C4, C5 I, C5 II, C5 III and Peugeot 307, this pump supports the vehicle’s cooling system and complements the main water pump. It helps in circulating the coolant fluid and preventing engine overheating while aiding the heating system by efficiently warming up the air drawn into the engine.
Replacement and Maintenance: The electric coolant pump usually has a long service life but may fail due to wear of internal components or electrical faults, leading to engine overheating or insufficient heating inside the cabin. Common symptoms include unusual noises or engine warning lights related to cooling.
Replacing this pump involves accessing the engine bay, disconnecting electrical connectors, and removing the mounting bolts to swap the old pump with the new one. Proper coolant bleeding after installation is essential to avoid air pockets and ensure efficient cooling system operation.
