The freewheel gear, also known as a starter drive or Bendix drive, is a critical component of your vehicle's starting system. It engages with the engine's flywheel to initiate the cranking process when you turn the ignition key or press the start button. This specific freewheel gear is manufactured by PEUGEOT/CITROEN under part code 5835C5, guaranteeing compatibility and quality for compatible PEUGEOT and CITROEN models. Its design ensures a positive engagement and a clean disengagement once the engine starts, preventing damage to both the starter motor and the flywheel. Replacing a worn or damaged freewheel gear is essential for maintaining the reliability of your vehicle's starting system. Symptoms of a failing freewheel gear can include a grinding noise when starting, the starter motor spinning without engaging the engine, or the starter motor not engaging at all. Trust in genuine PEUGEOT/CITROEN parts for optimal performance and longevity.
