Description
Overview
Turbo air intake connection pipe for PSA 2.0 HDi engines (engine codes RHR, RHK). This inlet pipe provides a sealed and stable route for intake air from the airbox/MAF sensor to the turbocharger. Proper intake plumbing is essential for engine performance, fuel economy and turbocharger durability.
Symptoms Of Failure
Common signs of a damaged or leaking intake pipe include loss of power under load, audible sucking or whistling from the engine bay, increased smoke, oily residue at the joint and illumination of the engine management light. Replacing a faulty pipe typically restores turbo response and stabilises boost pressure.
Causes And Durability
Original plastic pipes can become brittle with age, crack, deform or lose sealing ability as O-rings and sealing beads wear. Heat cycles, oil contamination and mechanical stresses accelerate deterioration leading to boost leaks and reduced engine performance.
Installation
Fitting is straightforward: remove the clamped/bolted pipe between the airbox/MAF and the turbocharger and install the replacement. Inspect and, if necessary, replace O-rings and clamps to ensure optimal sealing. Clean mating surfaces, seat the pipe without tension and tighten clamps evenly. After installation check for leaks at idle and during light acceleration.
Compatibility And Fitment
Compatible with 2.0 HDi engines carrying RHR or RHK codes, commonly fitted to larger models such as the Citroën C8 and Peugeot 807. There are variations in pipe routing and diameters within the same engine family, so always compare the part number, shape and connections against the existing pipe and verify against your VIN before purchase.
