Description
This Intake Throttle Valve by DELPHI is designed specifically for 1.6 HDI diesel engines found in Citroën and Peugeot vehicles. It regulates the airflow into the engine, supporting efficient combustion and optimal engine response.
The throttle valve plays a crucial role in controlling engine idling and acceleration by adjusting the air intake volume, which directly impacts fuel consumption and emission levels. Over time, these valves can become clogged or fail due to carbon buildup or wear, leading to rough idling, reduced engine performance, or increased fuel consumption. Replacing the throttle valve with a genuine part restores proper airflow control and engine operation.
Replacement and Maintenance
Replacing the throttle valve is straightforward for experienced mechanics or car enthusiasts with basic mechanical skills. The component is located on the intake manifold and connected to the electronic control system. Before replacement, it is advisable to diagnose the airflow sensor to avoid unnecessary part changes.
Regular inspection during maintenance intervals can prevent long-term engine issues linked to faulty air regulation. Failure rates increase with mileage and exposure to particulate contaminants from combustion.
