Volvo Engine Air Duct Clamp - Genuine Volvo 988016

Product Information

An engine air duct clamp is a fastening component used to secure the air intake ducting that directs clean, filtered air into the engine. By holding the duct firmly in place, the clamp prevents air leaks that could reduce engine efficiency or allow unfiltered air to enter. Properly functioning air duct clamps help maintain stable airflow, optimize combustion, and support overall engine performance.

• Loose or disconnected air ducts, leading to poor engine performance or stalling.
• Unusual hissing noises, caused by air leaks in the intake system.
• Check Engine Light illumination, triggered by irregular airflow or sensor readings.

About Genuine Volvo

The original parts used by Volvo to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine Volvo” brand. Manufactured under the direction of Volvo, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are exclusively available through the Volvo Dealership network.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your Volvo are not necessarily manufactured by Volvo. No cause for concern, as Volvo designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for Volvo for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine Volvo parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a Volvo logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
