Model: Citroen Xsara Picasso MK 1 - Years: 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010
Part: V-belt

Video tutorial

In this video, we will see how to replace the V-belt on a Citroen Xara Picasso N68: we need to safely lift the vehicle just enough to get underneath and see the arrangement of the belt; let's take a photo to remember how the belt is installed: we will need it when we put it back in place.

We will need to pull sideways on the tensioner pulley of the V-belt using a 16mm wrench in order to remove it. Now let's put the tensioner pulley back in its original position: we find the complete kit belt + tensioner + belt guide on autodoc.

It has the code 542R0062 at the price of 60.25 euros + 9.90 euros for shipping costs. Now we just need to reinsert it in its place and it's done.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
