PICASSO SERVICE

Post by WELSHVIKING »

Hi, For the 1st time since we have had the picasso i am going to do the service myself, we have always taken it to the main stealers for the service but this year to save money from there rip off prices i will do it myself. The car has done 61,000 mile and was last serviced 11 months ago approx 7,000 mile ago. I will put a list of what i will change and if anyone notices anything i have missed please comment on it.

PICASSO 2.0 HDI YEAR 2001,
OIL CHANGE,
OIL FILTER,
SUMP WASHER,
AIR FILTER,
POLLEN FILTER,
DIESEL FILTER,
CHECK BRAKES ALTHOUGH PADS WAS REPLACED AT 49,000,
NOTICED ON THE LAST FEW SERVICES A FUEL ADDITIVE HAS BEEN ADDED...ANY IDEAS WHAT THIS IS ?

THE AIR-CON IS STILL ICE COLD....ANYTHING ELSE ?????

Get a can at the local electronics store of cleaning/degreasing spray that doesn't leave a residue (very important) and clean the mass air flow sensor ;)
Check the cambelt and the fuel filter housing for metal particles at the bottom.

Aside from what 406 stated I think that may be pretty much it. (Cambelt & Water Pump)
