FAQs

Is the thermostat housing included with this gasket?

No, this product is for the gasket only. The thermostat housing itself is not included.

What is the OE part number this gasket replaces?

This Elring gasket replaces original equipment part number 1336Z1.

Which vehicle models is this gasket compatible with?

It is compatible with a range of Peugeot models (206, 207, 208, 308, 307, Partner Tepee, 2008, Rifter, Hoggar Pickup, 301, 408) and Citroën models (Berlingo, C2, C3, C4, C-Elysée, XSARA PICASSO).

Can I install this gasket myself?

Installation requires draining coolant and accessing the thermostat housing. If you are comfortable with automotive maintenance and have the necessary tools, you can perform the installation. Otherwise, professional installation is recommended.

What should I do if I suspect a coolant leak?

If you notice coolant loss or puddles under your vehicle, inspect the thermostat housing area. If a leak is present, replacing the gasket is a common and effective solution.

How do I ensure I'm ordering the correct part for my car?

Verify that your vehicle is listed in the compatibility section and that the OE part number `1336Z1` matches the part you are replacing. Consulting your vehicle's service manual or a parts specialist is also advised.

Troubleshooting

Coolant leak after installation

Ensure the thermostat housing mating surfaces were perfectly clean before installation. Verify the gasket was seated correctly and the housing bolts were tightened to the manufacturer's specified torque in the correct sequence. Check if the thermostat housing itself has any cracks.

Engine overheating persists

While this gasket prevents leaks, overheating can be caused by other cooling system issues like a faulty thermostat, water pump, radiator, or cooling fan. Ensure all other components are functioning correctly.

Incorrect part fitment

Double-check the vehicle compatibility list against your car's exact model, year, and engine. Ensure the OE part number `1336Z1` matches your original part number.
