Citroen Xsara Picasso - Video tutorial

Model: Citroen Xsara Picasso MK 1 - Years 1999-2012
Part: Bodywork
Operation: How to replace the gas springs on a Citroen Xsara Picasso

In this video we see how to replace the gas springs on the tailgate of a Citroen Xsara Picasso: we will only need a couple of screwdrivers to do the job, and of course we would have procured the replacement part to be replaced, finding it for example on Amazon with the code B073RNTXYK, at a price of 24.49 euros per pair, including delivery: we will support the rear hood with a hydraulic jack to do the job. We release the elastic ring that connects the support strut to the bodywork, using a flat screwdriver, then we remove the gas support strut from the hood. Now we will have to install the new strut, snapping the elastic ring that connects the support strut to the gas hood.

How to reset the service in the Opel Antara?

As we can see in this tutorial, resetting the service in the Opel Antara is an extremely simple and fast operation. Before proceeding, of course, we must have completed all the planned maintenance work. We start by inserting the key but leaving it in the initial position, after which we keep the accelerator pedal fully depressed and at the same time turn on the instrument panel, not the engine. At this point, we release the accelerator and press it 3 consecutive times, always all the way. We then restart the panel to verify that the procedure has been carried out correctly.
