Intake Air Filter Connection 2.2 16V For Citroën And Peugeot Vehicles
Description
This intake air filter connection (air duct/boot) is designed for 2.2 16V engines used in selected Citroën and Peugeot models. It provides a secure, leak-free connection between the air filter housing and the intake tract, ensuring correct airflow metering and engine performance. The part is commonly referenced by OEM/service numbers and is often searched by part code for fast identification.
Features And Benefits
- Direct fit for designated Citroën/Peugeot 2.2 16V applications — no trimming or modification required when the correct part number is selected.
- Durable construction to resist oil vapors, heat and engine bay contaminants.
- Helps maintain proper mass air flow readings and prevents unmetered air leaks that cause rough idle, poor acceleration or diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs).
- Sold under common reference numbers for quick identification and replacement.
Fitment Examples
Typical models where this part is used: Citroën C8, Peugeot 406, Peugeot 807. Always confirm the part code against vehicle documentation or parts catalogue before ordering.
How To Replace
Replacement is straightforward for an experienced technician or competent DIYer. Typical procedure:
- Park vehicle on level ground, let engine cool and remove the ignition key.
- Locate air filter housing and follow the intake duct to the connection to be replaced.
- Loosen hose clamps or remove fasteners securing the boot at both ends.
- Disconnect any attached vacuum lines, breather pipes or sensors (note their positions) and remove the old connector.
- Fit the new connector, ensure correct orientation and seat it fully on mating flanges.
- Secure clamps to manufacturer-recommended tightness, reconnect any hoses or sensors, then start the engine and check for leaks or abnormal noises.

Installation Recommendations
- Inspect mating surfaces and the air filter housing for damage or excessive wear; replace clamps if corroded or deformed.
- Clean any oil contamination from the surrounding area before installing to ensure a tight seal.
- When reattaching sensors or vacuum lines, ensure correct routing to avoid kinks and undue stress on fittings.
- After installation, verify idle quality and check for fault codes. If a mass air flow sensor fault persists, inspect sensor and wiring separately.
- Use appropriate hand tools and avoid over-tightening clamps, which can deform the connector and cause leaks.
Why This Part Commonly Fails
Intake connectors are exposed to heat, oil vapors from the crankcase, and mechanical stress from engine movement. Over time, rubber or plastic materials can harden, crack or split, causing unmetered air leaks. Common causes of failure include age-related material degradation, exposure to engine bay oils or fuels, damaged or loose clamps, and impact from maintenance work. Symptoms of a failing connector include hissing sounds, rough idle, loss of power, or engine management lights related to air metering.
