### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exact replacement.
*by B***N on February 26, 2026*

Fit perfectly on my C3.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fast delivery

Worked as it should and a decent price

### ⭐ Check valve
*by D***E on March 18, 2025*

The site said it would fit my model/year car but the connectors (3) are not flared on the ends to make a tight seal inside the hoses like the original valve. Is not usable for a replacement.
