Description
Product Overview
This Filter Box is designed specifically for Citroën and Peugeot vehicles equipped with the 1.6 HDI engine. It fits a variety of popular models including Citroën C3, C4 Picasso, Berlingo, and Peugeot 206, 207, 208, 308, 407, 508, and Partner. The component serves as an essential part of the engine’s air intake system, ensuring clean air flow to optimize combustion efficiency.
Unlike parts that include the mass airflow sensor, this Filter Box is built without the air mass sensor integration, making it a straightforward replacement part in vehicles where the sensor is mounted separately. This simplifies installation and maintenance for both professional mechanics and DIY car enthusiasts.
Function and Replacement Info
The Filter Box protects the engine by filtering incoming air from dust and debris that can cause wear or reduce engine performance over time. Over its lifecycle, it may become clogged or damaged due to contamination or impacts, leading to reduced airflow and potential engine performance issues such as reduced power or increased fuel consumption.
Replacement is recommended during routine maintenance intervals or when signs of wear appear. The installation process generally involves removing the old filter housing after disconnecting any attached components and securing the new box in place, ensuring all connections are tight to prevent unfiltered air ingress.
