VALVE INTAKE 0948.49 for CITROEN, PEUGEOT, TALBOT – High-Performance Engine Valve Solution This precision-engineered intake valve (Part No. 0948.49) is specifically designed for Citroen, Peugeot, and Talbot models, offering reliable performance in internal combustion engines. As a critical element in engine function, it ensures optimal air-fuel mixture flow into the
Combustion Chamber during the intake stroke. Engine valves—both intake and exhaust—are essential to maintaining efficient fuel delivery, power output, and emissions control. This component works in harmony with the
Camshaft mechanism to open and close at precise intervals, supporting peak engine efficiency under varying load conditions. Key Features: - OEM-grade durability with heat-resistant materials - Precision machining for exact fitment on Citroen, Peugeot, and Talbot vehicle platforms - Enhanced sealing properties to prevent leakage and maintain compression - Compatible with both gasoline and diesel engine configurations - Designed for long-term reliability in high-temperature environments Detailed Description: The intake valve serves as the gateway for the air-fuel mixture entering the combustion chamber—a process vital to engine ignition and performance. Unlike standard replacements, this valve integrates advanced metallurgy to withstand extreme thermal stress while maintaining dimensional accuracy over time. Its design aligns with original specifications used by manufacturers such as PSA Group (Peugeot-Citroen), ensuring compatibility across multiple model years. By regulating airflow with minimal resistance, it contributes to smoother idling, improved throttle response, and reduced emissions. Additionally, its robust construction minimizes wear, even under prolonged use or heavy-duty driving conditions. Whether you're replacing worn components or upgrading for better performance, this part offers a seamless integration into your engine’s valvetrain system. Ideal Use Cases: This intake valve is ideal for automotive enthusiasts, mechanics, and fleet operators seeking a dependable replacement for aging or damaged valves in older European vehicles. It's particularly suited for daily drivers, classic car restorations, and performance tuning projects involving Citroen, Peugeot, or Talbot models equipped with inline-four or inline-five engines. The valve supports both stock and mildly modified setups, making it a versatile choice for those aiming to restore or enhance engine functionality without compromising reliability. Customer Feedback: Users consistently report improved engine smoothness after installation, noting reduced knocking sounds and more consistent acceleration. Many appreciate the ease of fitting compared to generic alternatives, emphasizing that it matches factory tolerances closely. Some owners highlight its longevity in vehicles driven regularly under urban or highway conditions, confirming its value for long-term ownership. Frequently Asked Questions: What makes this intake valve suitable for Citroen, Peugeot, and Talbot engines? It adheres to manufacturer-specific dimensions, material standards, and operating parameters tailored to these brands’ internal combustion systems. Is this part compatible with turbocharged engines? Yes, it is engineered to perform reliably in both naturally aspirated and turbocharged variants of the supported models. How often should intake valves be replaced? Typically every 100,000 to 150,000 miles depending on maintenance practices and driving habits, but inspection during routine service is recommended. Can I install this myself? While possible for experienced DIYers, professional installation is advised to ensure proper timing alignment and correct seating within the cylinder head. Does it improve fuel economy? When installed correctly and paired with other well-maintained engine components, it helps optimize
Combustion Efficiency, which may result in slight improvements in fuel consumption.
