REDOX 9-Piece Silicone Coolant Hose Kit for CITROËN BX 1.7 Turbo Diesel XUD7

High-Performance Silicone Hoses for CITROËN BX Turbo Diesel

This complete 9-piece REDOX silicone coolant hose kit replaces the entire original cooling system of your CITROËN BX 1.7 Turbo Diesel equipped with the XUD7 engine (1769cc, 90 hp), produced between 1988 and 1994.

Technical Specifications

REDOX hoses are manufactured from high-quality VMQ silicone with 4mm wall thickness in 3-ply construction. This reinforced design guarantees exceptional mechanical strength and maximum durability over time. The operating temperature range extends from -50°C to +180°C, ensuring complete reliability under all operating conditions.

The VMQ silicone used offers mechanical properties far superior to original rubber. Unlike rubber hoses that expand, crack, and eventually leak or burst over time, REDOX silicone hoses maintain their shape and mechanical properties throughout their lifespan.

Verified Applications

This kit is specifically designed for CITROËN BX models equipped with the XUD7 Turbo Diesel engine (1769cc):

• CITROËN BX RD Turbo (1988-1990)
• CITROËN BX TRD Turbo (1988-1990)
• CITROËN BX TZD Turbo (1990-1994)
• CITROËN BX DTR Turbo (1988-1994)
• Hatchback and Estate versions (Break/Evasion)

The XUD7 Turbo Diesel engine was equipped with a turbocharger and intercooler, developing 90 hp at 4300 rpm with 180 Nm of torque. This engine was offered from March 1988 until BX production ended in 1993-1994.

Replacement of Original Parts

REDOX silicone hoses replace the original Citroën rubber hoses in the engine cooling circuit. These original natural rubber hoses, while economical for mass production, have limited mechanical properties that degrade over time with heat exposure and coolant contact.

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

Which BX versions are compatible with this kit? This kit is compatible with all CITROËN BX models equipped with the 1.7 Turbo Diesel XUD7 engine (1769cc, 90 hp) produced between 1988 and 1994, including RD Turbo, TRD Turbo, TZD Turbo and DTR Turbo versions, both hatchback and estate.

What's the difference between silicone and original rubber? VMQ silicone offers superior mechanical strength, doesn't expand with temperature, resists cracking and maintains its properties over time. Original rubber gradually degrades, becomes brittle and can leak or burst.

Are the clamps included? Yes, all clamps necessary for installation are included in the kit.

How long will delivery take? Orders placed before 5pm are dispatched the same day from our French warehouse. GLS delivery takes 24 to 48 hours to France.

Does the lifetime warranty really cover the entire vehicle lifespan? Yes, REDOX provides a lifetime warranty on its silicone hoses against any manufacturing or material defects. This warranty demonstrates our confidence in the exceptional quality and durability of our products.

Can I install these hoses myself? Installation is carried out in place of the original hoses. If you have basic mechanical skills and appropriate tools, you can perform this operation. It is recommended to drain the cooling system before the intervention.

Which colour should I choose? The colour choice (Blue, Black or Red) is purely aesthetic and doesn't affect technical performance. All three colours use the same VMQ silicone formulation and offer the same mechanical properties.

Are these hoses suitable for motorsport? Absolutely. REDOX silicone hoses have been used in motorsport since 2010. Their mechanical and thermal resistance makes them perfectly suited to motorsport demands including rally, drift and circuit racing.
