The 0248.S0 PCV valve cover repair kit (or cap/diaphragm) is a common replacement part for the 1.6 HDI 8V diesel engines found in Peugeot, Citroen, Volvo, and Ford vehicles. This kit typically includes a plastic cap, a rubber membrane (diaphragm), and a spring, designed to address issues with the positive crankcase ventilation system without replacing the entire valve cover.
Features:
- The PCV system regulates crankcase pressure; a failed diaphragm (often cracked or split) leads to oil leaks, high oil consumption, and rough engine idle.
- Compatibility: Widely used on PSA (Peugeot/Citroen) 1.6 HDI 8-valve engines. It is often listed with OEM part numbers 9688939180, 9689112980, 31330192, and 1685815.
- Material: Made of durable, wear-resistant material, often PA66+GF30 (glass-filled nylon).
- Component: The 0248.S0 is specifically designed for the 1.6 HDI 8V engines (not the 16V version).
Symptoms of a Bad 0248.S0 PCV Valve
- Hissing/Whistling Noise: A sign of a torn diaphragm.
- Oil Leaks: Increased pressure forces oil out of seals.
- Rough Idle/Stalling: The air-fuel mixture is compromised.
- Excessive Oil Consumption: Oil vapor is drawn into the intake.
