Xsara 2.0 HDI 90bhp

Anyone plz advise what the oil type & capacity is for this model?

I'd buy a Haynes manual, but I have now zero confidence in Mr Haynes advice!

TIA

Andy

Mine takes 4.75 litres, just use Magnatec GTD!

Its about 2-3 litres. Best way to do the job is remove the n/s front wheel and drop the car low on thejack to drain the box from the bottom plug.

Then ( after fitting drain plug back) you acces the fill plug from the inner wing behind the plastic mudguard. Just keep squeezing oil in using one of those 1ltr bottles with a feed pipe until it starts to back flow and drip out heavily.

I did mine last month hoping it would reduce the whining noise....but it didn't.

Or you could adopt the alternative draining method - pull out the driveshaft (as I did)......
