Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility Check:

Before installation, verify that your vehicle is listed within the compatible PEUGEOT or CITROËN models and was manufactured from April 1990 onwards. Cross-reference the OE part number (021303) with your vehicle's service manual or existing part.

Installation:

Installation typically involves removing the valve cover to access the spark plug wells. The old seal should be carefully removed, and the area cleaned. The new Elring 2130030 seal should then be pressed firmly into place on the spark plug stem or the corresponding recess in the valve cover, ensuring a snug fit. It is recommended to consult a service manual specific to your vehicle for detailed step-by-step instructions.

Care:

This part is designed for a long service life under normal operating conditions. Regular engine maintenance, including checking for oil leaks around the valve cover, is advised. No specific maintenance is required for the seal itself once properly installed.
