If you need an original, genuine part number or part diagram, and can't already find the info you need on the Forum, we do ask for a membership upgrade for official parts data as we are in turn charged for this. It will cover you for future part number requests for up to 2 years, so excellent value.

If interested, links are below, then pop your VIN up.

Have a look on the top of the bell housing, it should be there according to the Haynes manual for the Xsara Picasso.

Should be on the top of the bell housing at around the 12 o’clock position, it’s quite well hidden by the thermostat housing, you can feel it easier than seeing it. Its the later 2.0 engines (not found on a Xsara Picasso) that are at the crank pulley.
