Description
Charge air intake hose for turbocharged 1.6 HDi engines. Air connection clamp.
Description
This replacement turbo intake hose is designed for 1.6 HDi diesel engines used on selected Citroën and Peugeot models. Manufactured from heat- and oil-resistant rubber compound with a reinforced structure, the hose ensures secure transfer of compressed air from the turbocharger to the intercooler or intake tract. Correct fitment and a reliable clamp connection help maintain boost pressure, support engine responsiveness and reduce the risk of air leaks that cause loss of power.
Key Features
- Direct fit for compatible Citroën and Peugeot 1.6 HDi models.
- Durable, heat- and oil-resistant rubber construction.
- Reinforced ends for secure clamping and long service life.
- Supplied with/for use with air connection clamp as specified.

Fitment
Fits turbocharged 1.6 HDi engines used in the listed Citroën and Peugeot models. Always check the part number against the original hose when replacing to ensure correct shape and connection orientation. This hose is typically fitted between the turbocharger outlet and the intercooler or between intercooler and intake manifold depending on the vehicle configuration.
Function And Symptoms Of Failure
The intake hose carries compressed air under boost pressure. It must remain airtight and flexible to absorb engine and turbo vibrations. Common symptoms of a failing hose include decreased engine power, irregular boost response, audible hissing or whistling under acceleration, and increased turbo lag. In some cases, a leak can trigger engine management adjustments that affect drivability.
Replacement Procedure
- Allow the engine to cool before starting work to avoid burns from hot components.
- Relieve any residual boost pressure by gently opening the intake system with the engine off.
- Loosen and remove the clamps at both ends of the old hose. Inspect adjacent pipes, intercooler seals and connection points for damage or oil contamination.
- Remove the old hose and clean the mating surfaces. Fit the new hose in the correct orientation so that bends are not twisted or stressed.
- Install new or serviceable clamps and tighten evenly—secure but avoid over-tightening to prevent hose damage. Recheck all connections after first run and after a short test drive.
Mounting Recommendations
- Use high-quality worm-drive or Oetiker-style clamps and replace any damaged or corroded clamps during installation.
- Ensure the hose is not rubbing on sharp edges or hot surfaces; use protective routing if necessary.
- After installation, perform a visual inspection and a boost/leak check at idle and under light load to confirm airtight sealing.
- If oil contamination is present, inspect the turbocharger for leaks or excessive crankcase ventilation and address root causes before fitting the new hose.
Why The Part Most Frequently Fails
Turbo intake hoses commonly fail due to age-related rubber degradation, prolonged exposure to heat, oil contamination from turbo or crankcase ventilation leaks, mechanical abrasion, or loose/faulty clamps. Repeated pressure cycles under boost can cause cracking or delamination at the hose ends, leading to sudden loss of boost and drivability issues.
Recommendation
Replace the hose as soon as signs of damage or leakage appear. When replacing, inspect associated components (clamps, intercooler, turbo outlet) and correct any oil leaks or clamp corrosion to avoid repeated failures. Use the listed part numbers to confirm compatibility and ensure a direct-fit replacement.
