Anyone got any suggestions for where I can get a workshop manual for a 2013 picasso, need to do some work on the rear wheel bearings as the local main dealer have done some work on the vehicle and I may as well have left it at the local zoo and got the monkeys to work on it! :roll: :twisted:

Hi

There is no haynes for that model. But there is software that can cover the 2013 models available called SEDRE.

Was there anything you particularly need to know? I may have access to it :?:

Was having a problem with the rear discs, basically took it to the main dealer near me as there was a knock coming from the front end, service manager said 'oh we know what that is', they obviously didn't do a test drive before doing any work on it and told me it was the brakes and replaced all the discs and pads plus fitted new rear calipers and hoses, charged a shed load of money - close to a grand!!! picked it up and went 100 yards up the road and the knock was still there!!! Took it back to the dealer and they took it back in and discovered that the front shock on the passenger side was buggered due to the water drain in the front scuttle being blocked and gathering water which then rotted the top of the front shock which was what was causing the knock. Wanted to charge me another 500 quid which is when I told them they can bugger off! Had it back for a couple of months and the missus was driving down the M5 with grandchildren in the car and suddenly loud metal on metal noise and abs light comes on, she manages to get it back home and I have a look and the new rear bearings which are part of the rear discs that they replaced had basically exploded and the new rear discs had started chewing up the new rear calipers, its now back at the main dealers with a promise that if they dont fix it for bugger all I will get solicitors involved!!

You could also let Citroen UK know what the dealer is doing to the good name of Citroen :D
