Description
Product Description
The Throttle Body 1.0 (1KR Engine) is designed specifically for Citroën C1, Peugeot 107, and Toyota Aygo models. This component plays a critical role in regulating the amount of air entering the engine, directly impacting engine performance, fuel efficiency, and emission control.
Application and Compatibility
The throttle body is compatible with petrol engines featuring the 1KR-FE 1.0L motor, commonly found in the listed models. It ensures precise air intake management, enabling optimal combustion under varying driving conditions.
Why and When to Replace
Common signs of throttle body malfunction include rough idling, engine stalling, reduced power, and poor throttle response. Typically, wear or carbon buildup can restrict airflow, causing these issues. Replacement intervals depend on driving conditions but should be considered if symptoms arise or during routine maintenance around 100,000 km.
Installation Overview
Replacement requires disconnecting the air intake duct, electrical connectors, and loosening mounting bolts. Installing the new throttle body involves reversing these steps and may require calibration via diagnostic tools to ensure proper integration with the engine control unit (ECU).
