The 0445110311 is a complete solenoid common rail injector engineered by Bosch for the PSA DV6 1.6 HDi family (engine codes 9HT, 9HX, 9HV) fitted to Citroen Berlingo / C3 / C3 Picasso / C4 and Peugeot 207 / 307 / 308 / Partner (production window 2005-2017). The injector carries the F00VC01364 solenoid control valve (F00VC30xxx CRI2 generation) and the DLLA149P1471 multi-hole nozzle (internal code 0433171914) calibrated for stable atomisation at 1600 bar peak rail pressure. Net weight approximately 500 g. Bosch aftermarket exchange number is 0986435146 (also 0986435122 on earlier production runs).
Before You Order
Always verify the OE reference (1980L1 / 1980CQ / 1609849980 / 1609850080 / 9662003380) on your existing injector body before ordering. ECU IMA coding is required after installation on the PSA DV6 1.6 HDi platform.

Installation Tips
Depressurise and disconnect: Remove fuel pump fuse, crank engine 5 seconds to release rail pressure, then disconnect battery negative terminal. NEVER crack HP lines with the rail pressurised.
2-wrench procedure (CRITICAL): Use a 15 mm wrench to hold the F00VC01364 solenoid body and a 17 mm wrench to tighten the high-pressure line nut — applying force directly to the solenoid twists the valve assembly and causes a permanent no-start fault. This applies to all Bosch CRIN2/CRI2 injectors on the DV6 1.6 HDi platform.
Injector hold-down torque (snap-on ring style): The 0445110311 uses a snap-on retaining ring, NOT a clamp bolt. First fit the snap-on ring into the cylinder head bore using Bosch snap-on pliers (Bosch 0 986 610 075 or equivalent). Then insert the injector until the snap engages. Cross-pattern tightening does not apply here — the snap is single-action.
Hold-down ring / clamp final torque: 60-80 N m cross-pattern if your DV6 variant uses a bolt-down clamp instead of the snap-on ring (verify against your engine code: 9HT/9HX = bolt-down clamp; 9HV = snap-on ring on earlier production). When in doubt, always refer to the PSA workshop manual for your specific model year.
HP line torque:25-30 N m with 15 mm (solenoid side) + 17 mm (line side) flare nut wrenches. Do NOT use an impact wrench on either side.
Replace ALL seals: New copper washer (HP side) and new O-rings (return side) on every reinstall — reuse is the #1 cause of post-install leaks on DV6. Lubricate O-rings with clean engine oil, NOT silicone grease.
Clean the injector bore with a 17-19 mm reamer before insertion. Carbon deposits on the bore seat will prevent the snap-on ring from seating fully and cause combustion gas leakage (P0401 / P0402 false codes are a common symptom).
Prime and start: Hand pump the low-pressure circuit 3x before cranking. Then crank engine WITHOUT throttle for 5-10 seconds to clear air from the high-pressure rail. Start and idle at 1500 rpm for 5 minutes — check all HP joints for leaks.
IMA coding (CRITICAL for 9HX): The 9HX variant requires 4-digit IMA (Injection Quantity Adjustment) coding via Bosch KTS 590 or PSA Lexia/Planet. Enter the code printed on the new injector body. Failure to code results in P0201-P0204 (cylinder-specific injector circuit) and P0300 (random misfire) within 5-10 minutes of first start.
Post-install OBD scan: Codes to watch after a DV6 injector swap: P0201 / P0202 / P0203 / P0204 (cylinder-specific circuit fault), P0300 / P0301 / P0302 / P0303 / P0304 (cylinder misfire), P2146 (injector group A supply voltage), P0401 (EGR flow insufficient — false positive if bore leak), P2299 (brake pedal position — unrelated, clear and ignore). Persistent codes after 3 drive cycles = real fault, diagnose before clearing.
Injector balance verification: Use Bosch KTS or PSA Lexia to run the cylinder cut-out / contribution test. Deviation between cylinders must be within ±3 percent. Out-of-spec deviation indicates a defective replacement injector (rare) or air ingestion at the feed tube (loose 1.25-1.5 N m connector nut).
Hot re-torque check: After a 30-minute road test, let the engine cool 15 minutes and re-torque the HP line nuts to 25-30 N m. Thermal cycling can relax clamping force by 5-10 percent.
