Turbocharger CITROËN C4 Spacetourer (3D_) 2.0 BlueHDi 163 hp

The 2.0 BlueHDi 163 hp engine, found in Peugeot models from 2012 to 2020, is known for its efficiency but also for its sensitivity to turbo failure, often signaled by sudden power loss, excessive exhaust smoke, or a high-pitched whine under load.

Whether you’re a professional mechanic, a weekend tinkerer, or a motorist dealing with a breakdown, the turbos listed here are engineered to meet the exacting standards of the KKK 5303 988 0394 specification.

The range is built around the core principles of exchange-standard remanufacturing, where each turbo undergoes a rigorous process to restore its internal components to a like-new state, including the CHRA (Center Housing Rotating Assembly) and variable geometry mechanism. The turbos are sourced from reputable manufacturers and distributed through a network of wholesale partners, ensuring availability and competitive pricing for workshops and private buyers alike. The focus remains on compatibility, durability, and seamless integration into existing repair workflows.

Storage & logistics

For garages and wholesalers, storing remanufactured turbos like the KKK 5303 988 0394 requires a controlled environment to maintain their condition until installation. Keep units in their original packaging, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, to prevent seal degradation or internal corrosion. Rotate stock regularly to ensure the oldest units are used first, reducing the risk of obsolescence or performance drift over time. For workshops, designate a dedicated storage area with clear labeling to avoid mix-ups between different engine specifications or turbo models. Always handle turbos with care, avoiding drops or impacts that could damage the variable geometry mechanism or CHRA assembly.
