Snow grill inserts

Unread post by hedgerowpete »

I have seen recently in Northern Norway, many Citroën and Peugeot vehicles having a snow grill insert in place. It's to reduce the amount of freezing air entering the engine bay. I can not see if there is one for my Vehicle and wanted to know it anyone else had heard of them.
My vehicle is a Peugeot Expert tepee mk2, I plan to use tin foil if I can not find a suitable grill cover.

Hi, Yes I have heard of them, OEM part, Marc may be able to help with the part number, small joining fee required, see viewtopic.php?t=69962&hilit=part+number,.

I had one on my Mk1 C5, and now have one on my X7, it does two things, enables quicker warmup and stops the lower part of the radiator from getting covered with road salt. I would definitely recommend getting one. They recommend fitting one when the ambient temperature stays below 10c.

None listed that I can see. I think there are other after-market companies that are providing these like the Russians!
