Function
The turbo air intake pipe channels ambient air into the turbocharger compressor. Proper airflow into the turbo is essential for boost generation, combustion efficiency and overall engine performance. A correctly sealed and undamaged inlet pipe helps maintain stable boost pressure and prevents unmetered air from entering the intake tract.
Common Failure Modes & Service Interval
Failure typically occurs from age, heat cycling and mechanical stress. Common issues include cracks, splits at hose ends, clamp failures, oil contamination and deterioration of rubber or plastic materials. There is no fixed replacement interval; inspect the pipe during routine turbo or intake system service and replace if any damage, leakage or excessive softening is found.
Replacement & Installation Notes
- Allow the engine to cool and relieve any residual boost pressure before starting work.
- Loosen clamps and disconnect any attached hoses, vacuum lines or sensors carefully to avoid damage.
- Remove the old intake pipe and check adjoining components (intercooler hose, clamps, turbo inlet) for wear or contamination.
- Fit the new pipe in the correct orientation, ensure full seating on mating flanges, and tighten clamps evenly to secure a proper seal.
- After installation, check for leaks at idle and under load. Clear any fault codes and perform a short test drive to confirm correct boost response.
Compatibility & Application Advice
Designed for 2.0 HDI RHR engines, this pipe fits the Peugeot 807 RHR and is compatible with Citroën C8 applications using the same engine code. Always verify part numbers and engine code (RHR) against your vehicle before purchase. Searching by product codes 0382HE or 0382H2 is a reliable method to confirm fitment.
If you are a professional mechanic or a competent DIYer, this Turbo Air Intake Pipe offers a straightforward replacement that restores proper turbo inlet airflow and contributes to consistent engine performance. Verify compatibility with your specific vehicle and follow recommended safety procedures during installation.
