Do you have a Dodge Journey 2.0 CRD and the vehicle has lost power, pulls poorly, or you hear a hissing sound from the engine compartment during acceleration?
Then it is quite possible that the problem is not the turbo.
And not even the injection system.
Very often, the problem is a damaged or leaking intake hose with the original part number:
04891898AB
An inconspicuous part at first glance.
In reality, however, it is an absolutely essential component of the entire engine turbocharging system.
What is Mopar 04891898AB? 🔍
The original 04891898AB part is an OEM intake hose / air intake turbo hose designed for:
- Dodge Journey JC 2.0 CRD
- model years 2009–2010
This is an original Mopar hose that connects parts of the intake system of the turbocharged diesel engine.
This part operates under:
- high pressure
- high temperature
- engine vibrations
- long-term mechanical stress
And that is precisely why it is one of the components that wear out more frequently on diesel Journey models.
Why does the intake hose crack so often? ⚠️
The 2.0 CRD engine produces high turbo pressure, and the hose is constantly under stress.
The most common causes of damage:
🌡️ High temperatures
The turbo system produces extreme heat, which gradually degrades the rubber material of the hose.
💨 Boost pressure
During acceleration, the hose is under high pressure. After years of use, the material begins to soften or crack.
🛢️ Oil vapors
Diesel engines produce oil deposits that gradually damage the structure of the hose from the inside.
⏳ Natural aging of the material
On vehicles more than 10+ years old, this is a completely common fault.
And the Dodge Journey 2.0 CRD has now reached the age when these problems occur very frequently.
How can I identify a faulty intake hose? 🚨
A damaged intake hose usually becomes apparent very quickly.
Typical symptoms:
- 🔴 loss of power
- 🔴 the vehicle does not pull during acceleration
- 🔴 hissing or blowing from the engine compartment
- 🔴 engine limp mode
- 🔴 increased smoke
- 🔴 illuminated check engine light
- 🟠 irregular turbo operation
- 🟠 higher fuel consumption
Many owners unnecessarily investigate:
- turbo
- mass air flow sensor
- EGR valve
- injectors
while the actual problem is the leaking hose.
Why use an original Mopar part? ✅

But with pressurized hoses in particular, the difference in quality can be enormous.
