Description
Double air conditioning pipe for Citroën C1 and Peugeot 107. For 1.0i 12V engines from 2005 to 2014.
This genuine-fit dual air conditioning pipe is designed for Citroën C1 and Peugeot 107 models with the 1.0i 12V petrol engine produced between 2005 and 2014. The pipe carries refrigerant between A/C system components and restores correct refrigerant flow where original lines are corroded, cracked or leaking. Supplied under OEM reference numbers for reliable fitment, this part is suitable for professional workshops and experienced DIYers who maintain PSA cooling and climate systems.

Compatibility And Fitment
Fits Citroën C1 and Peugeot 107 with 1.0i 12V petrol engines, model years approximately 2005–2014. Confirm fitment by matching the OEM product codes 88720-0H010C or 6460SX with the part being replaced. Designed to mount to the factory A/C connections and brackets without modification when the correct reference is used.
Function And Common Failure Modes
The pipe transports refrigerant within the vehicle’s air conditioning circuit. Common failure causes include corrosion from road salt and moisture, abrasion against road debris or mounting points, degraded seals and O-rings at connection points, and mechanical damage from impacts. Leaks usually occur at fittings or along corroded sections of the tube and lead to reduced cooling performance or A/C system failure.
Replacement Guide And Installation Recommendations
- Recover Refrigerant: Refrigerant must be properly recovered using certified A/C service equipment before any work. Never vent refrigerant to the atmosphere.
- Disconnect Lines: After recovery, loosen and remove the A/C fittings and any retaining brackets. Keep track of clamps and mounting hardware.
- Replace Seals: Always replace O-rings and seals at each connection with new parts sized for the system. Lubricate new O-rings with the correct PAG oil before installation.
- Fit New Pipe: Install the new pipe into the original mounting points, ensuring correct routing and secure attachment to brackets to avoid chafing.
- Vacuum And Recharge: Evacuate the system to remove moisture and then recharge with the correct refrigerant charge (vehicles of this era commonly use R134a) and specified amount of lubricant.
- Leak Check And Function Test: Perform a pressure/leak test and verify correct operation and cooling performance after recharge.
Recommended for experienced technicians or skilled DIYers with access to A/C recovery and recharge equipment. Use appropriate personal protective equipment and follow local regulations for refrigerant handling.
Why This Part Fails Most Often
Failure is most commonly caused by corrosion from road salt and moisture, which weakens the metal and creates leaks over time. Vibration and improper mounting can cause wear at contact points, while deteriorated O-rings at fittings allow refrigerant leakage. External impact or crushing from road debris can also damage the pipe.
