Installation Recommendations

For safe and reliable replacement follow these steps and precautions:

• Recover the refrigerant from the system using certified A/C recovery equipment before disassembly.
• Release system pressure and disconnect any electrical connectors or sensors nearby, labeling hoses and fittings if needed.
• Remove clamps, brackets and fittings securing the old pipe. Replace O-rings and seals at each connection with new, correctly sized, lubricated O-rings compatible with the system refrigerant and oil.
• Install the new pipe in factory routing, secure all fasteners and brackets to prevent chafing or contact with moving parts.
• Evacuate the system with a vacuum pump and recharge with the refrigerant type and charge quantity specified by the vehicle manufacturer.
• Perform a leak check and verify system pressure and cooling performance after service.

Recommended for installation by professional technicians or experienced DIYers with access to appropriate A/C service equipment. Always follow local regulations for refrigerant handling and dispose of recovered refrigerant correctly.

Why This Part Fails Most Often

• Corrosion and material fatigue from road salt and moisture, especially at metal joints and fittings.
• Mechanical damage from impacts or contact with debris under the vehicle.
• Leaking O-rings or improperly seated connections after previous repairs.
• Vibration-induced wear where the pipe is inadequately supported or mounting brackets are damaged.
• Contamination or internal blockages that increase system pressure and stress seals and joints.

Service Life And Replacement Advice

There is no fixed replacement interval for A/C pipes; they are typically replaced when a leak, visible damage, or loss of cooling performance is detected. Inspect lines during routine A/C service and after collision or underbody impacts. When replacing this pipe, always inspect adjacent components (compressor, condenser, evaporator, hoses, O-rings) and replace any damaged items to ensure a durable repair.

Search And Identification

Use the OEM numbers 9674395180, 9811551180 and 9819409480 when searching online or in parts catalogs. Entering the vehicle models “Citroën C-Elysée” or “Peugeot 301 1.6 16V” together with these part numbers will improve search accuracy and help find the exact replacement faster.
