On a 1.8 petrol xsara Picasso the oil filter is underneath the engine in the middle towards the front. The air filter is in a little box held by (3?) screws on the front right of the engine compartment.
Gearbox and engine oil all one.
The 1.8 xsara Picasso petrol engine takes TOTAL Activa 7000
Synthetic 10w/40.
oil seals have gone
570mm
You are best to use a semi-synthetic oil. Preferably 10W40.
total active 7000
Oil pressure is low. Check oil level and condition (is the oil black and thin? If so, change oil and filter) If this doesn't fix it, the engine might be badly worn or the oil pump may have a fault. Have your local garage take a look.
what engine? year? c4/xsaara?
the xsara Picasso's are quite reliable, which shows in that it is one of Citroen's longest running models and underwent very few changes it was only recently phased out to be replaced by the less reliable C4 picasso. It depends on which Picasso you are on about and which engine. the C4 Picasso petrols are known for lambda sensor faults and had quite a lot of recalls for various problems. the diesel engines can be prone to emission control system faults or DPF as it is known. the Xsara Picasso as I say was very reliable with no real common faults. if it is a looked after car it will give years of service and it is not unknown for them to go for 200k+ in the diesel and 150k+ petrols I used to work for citroen and we serviced a few Xsara Pic diesels with 300 400k on the clock and one even had over 500k on the clock but that was on its second engine as the first one blew up at 150k due to customer overfilling oil. the 2.0HDI 110hp unit is probably Citroens finest diesel engine and the block is still used as the base for many of its current diesel engines.
Hi there I have been told 4.3 litres.
