Any one know of a manual for the Picasso or one covering the 2.0 HDi engine?

Haynes do a manual for the Peugeot 206 with diesel and turbo-diesel up to 2001, so I imaging it would cover the HDi engine, best to check with Haynes, though.

Haynes also do a manual for the Xsara, covering the 1997cc diesel, which is the HDi.

Don't hold your breath! It took Haynes 5 YEARS to get round to publishing a manual for the XM and the result is one of the poorest Haynes manuals I've seen. In comparison with the manuals for the BX and CX, there's very little technical information for the XM, no cut-through drawings for suspension etc. (no V6 either!)

Nisk,yes I agree with your point the Haynes books have become more like a hand book.
I go back many years ago when the books provided complete drawings of engine and gearbox,a strip and rebuild was possible in those days.
I think the reason is due to the fact that so many special tools and even a computer may be required to work on todays vehicles!
