xsara picasso 1.6 Diesel remove starter motor top bolt
Hi all, I removed the two from under, but I been struggling to remove the bolt you get to from the top for my starter motor, I did it 5 years ago and remember it been something I never wanted to do again but here I am and I can't seem to do remember or do it this time
been trying to use a hex key with a joint but its not working, any ideas much appreciated, been at it for while... going to have another go tomorrow.

Remove the top bolt: The top bolt is a bit more difficult to access. You may need to use a combination of socket wrench extensions and universal joints to reach the bolt from above the engine.
I found using universal joint the two accesses to the bold one from on top for undoing and one kind of straight from the right hand side, still took ages to get it out and back in, I expect the garages drain the radiator and detach some pipes, would have been a good time to replace the fuel filter as well as the air filter as they both need moving around for access.
