Product Description
This ignition barrel and fuel tank cap set with 1 key is designed specifically for Citroën and Peugeot vehicles, including the Citroën C4. It provides secure locking for both the ignition system and fuel tank, enhancing the safety and security of your vehicle.
The ignition barrel is a critical component that allows the driver to start the engine by turning the key. Over time, wear and tear or key damage can cause ignition barrels to malfunction, leading to difficulties in starting the vehicle or potential security vulnerabilities. Replacing it with an original compatible part ensures reliable performance and peace of mind.
The fuel tank cap included in this set secures the fuel system from unauthorized access and helps maintain proper tank pressure, which is essential for optimal engine efficiency and emission control. The combined set simplifies maintenance and replacement tasks.
Replacement and Compatibility

Installation involves removing the old ignition barrel and fuel cap, then securing the new components in place using the supplied key. This job is suitable for skilled DIY users and professional mechanics alike.
Why Replacement Is Needed
Ignition barrels can fail due to worn tumblers or damaged keys, leading to ignition problems. Fuel tank caps may degrade over time, causing fuel evaporation or security risks. Replacing these components helps maintain vehicle functionality, security, and fuel system integrity.
