Shared Engines Hatch V Picasso

[SUPERSPORT875]

The ongoing problem of finding a hard copy of the repair manual for Series 2, HDi 110 powered Hatch is annoying, the internet sourced manual on discs come, in my experience on at least 3 discs (usually mis-matched) and demand down loading of a programme from an unknown source.

 

I have a belt and pump change due on my hatch, so my question is which Picasso has a compatable engine so I can get a Haynes to work effectively on the motor ?

I have had no bother with the Citroen service box manual on 3 dvds and I have seen them as low as £4 from such as ebay. When you get the discs, you start the installation which gives an installation code, you then send this to the seller who gives you an activation code to allow the installation to complete. No need to download anything from the internet.

 

The Haynes C5 manual covers the 2.0 hdi SOHC DW10TD / DW10ATED engine, codes RHY and RHZ. However, I do not know if it is exactly like the Xsara engine. You might find a copy in a library. Your engine code makes up part of the VIN.

Thanks,

 

I have tried the CD mounted manuals, but I have a severe reluctance to introducing programs I have no knowledge of into my computer. The first set I bought took the best part of a day to load into my lap top and corrupted it so badly I had to have it sent away to rebuld, the second attempt, again 3 CD's, all looking like they had been used for god knows what before they came to me, they were not even the same make or even in proper cases. In light of that, I decided to write off the cost as I did not trust the vendor..

I will however investigate the C5 link Paul, it was one model I had not considered as engine shareing

 

Thanks

If you register on the service.citroen site, as well as seeing the parts diagrams for free, you can pay for timed access to their procedures, so if there was a particular thing you needed it is something to consider. I have accessed the parts diagrams but have not used the paid for services so can not comment on how good they are. You can register on the site as another professional and member of the Citroen Owners Club since membership of a car club is allowed in the terms and conditions.

 

I think the dvds I got were a year out of date and may have been from a dealer and a later set I got I am not sure of the source (but they do work), this is one of the problems with ebay and I am always reluctant to pay much for something from an unknown supplier in case it is no good.
