Description
Product Overview
The Exhaust Gas Cooler is a vital component designed specifically for 1.6 HDI diesel engines found in Citroën and Peugeot vehicles. It functions as a heat exchanger that cools the exhaust gases before they exit the system, thereby reducing emissions and supporting engine efficiency and longevity.
This part is compatible with popular models including Citroën C4, Citroën C4 Picasso, Citroën C5, Citroën Xsara Picasso, Peugeot 307, Peugeot 308, and Peugeot 407. Proper maintenance and timely replacement of the exhaust gas cooler help maintain the engine’s optimal operating conditions and reduce the risk of overheating or damage to exhaust-related components.
Installation and Maintenance
Replacing the exhaust gas cooler typically involves detaching the old unit from the engine’s cooling and exhaust circuits and installing the new part in the same position. The procedure requires mechanical skills and appropriate tools, such as wrenches and coolant drainage equipment. It is recommended to inspect the cooler periodically, especially if the vehicle exhibits symptoms like increased exhaust temperature, reduced engine performance, or coolant leaks.
The lifespan of this component depends on driving conditions, maintenance routines, and mileage; however, routine checks during vehicle servicing will help catch any deterioration early on.
