Description
Air intake, air filter housing cover for CITROEN C1 and PEUGEOT 107 1.0 1KR. For EURO5 vehicles or vehicles with an automated (robotic) gearbox or with ESP.
This replacement air filter housing cover (airbox cover) restores proper sealing of the intake system, protects the air filter from dirt and moisture, and helps maintain correct engine breathing. It is a direct-fit spare part for Citroën C1 and Peugeot 107 equipped with the 1.0 1KR engine and configured for EURO5 emissions or fitted with a robotic gearbox/ESP options. Commonly searched by product codes 17705-0Q020 and 144091, this part is suitable for mechanics and experienced DIYers who maintain small petrol engines.
Benefits and Application
Replacing a damaged or leaking airbox cover prevents unfiltered air intake, avoids false air that can trigger rough idling or poor fuel economy, and protects the air filter element from contamination. The part is optimized for easy installation in tight engine bays common to city cars and is compatible with the original inlet connections on Citroën C1 and Peugeot 107 1.0 1KR platforms.

Installation Recommendations
Installation is straightforward for a trained technician or competent DIYer: park on level ground, ensure the engine is cool, then remove the fasteners or retaining clips securing the airbox cover. Carefully disconnect the intake hose(s) and any attached sensors or breather hoses if present. Lift the cover, inspect and, if necessary, replace the air filter element, clean the airbox seating area, then fit the new cover making sure the sealing lip seats evenly. Reconnect hoses and secure all clips or screws. Do not overtighten plastic fasteners; replace any broken clips or seals to ensure a reliable seal.
Why This Part Fails
Airbox covers rarely fail from normal wear but commonly suffer damage from impact in minor collisions, engine bay heat aging, or brittle/damaged retaining clips. Cracks or deformed sealing lips allow unmetered air to enter the intake, which can cause rough running, increased emissions, or trigger engine management warnings. Damage is often visible during routine air filter service.
Maintenance Tips
When replacing the cover, always check the condition of the air filter element and the rubber sealing flange. Clean the mating surfaces and replace any worn clamps or broken clips. Regular inspection during scheduled services helps catch hairline cracks or degraded seals before they affect engine performance.
