Disaster Detail/Deep Clean/Barn Find Citroen Picasso/Filth Scrap Dirty Car

Today we try and save a Citroen Picasso from the crusher, It's been sat for 2 years due to a dodgy auto gearbox, and is now being offered as spares and repairs .... if no one wants it ... the poor Citroen may be made into a coke can!
try my best to give the old car one last chance.

I cannot tell you how big my smile was when I got this video notification, I'm glad it's back to business as usual. Top job on the Citroen as always!

The foam ranger is back! 👍 Will be very interested in your Koch Chemie trials, I can definitely recommend FSE QD which is brilliant for water spotting and PS PLAST STAR which is fantastic on external plastic and rubber, even tyres. Great to have your content back pal.

[@everydaydetailing6449]

I'll check it out! thanks James

[@davyarthurs]

Ace job. If this Sh1troen doesn’t sell now, I don’t it think it ever would have! Ace work.

[@JGV_IX]

I can see this is the first wash in the Queen’s lifetime… barn find? Sewage treatment plant find? By the way - I’ve finally been able to buy Koch Chemie in South Africa - complete game changer. I’ve had awesome results with FSE, Green star and Eulex. Thanks for the recommendation! I’m investing in expanding my range of their products - by far the most worth while brand in a long time. Also have to say - a little goes a long way especially with the Eulex and the engine dressing.

[@waynelittle5583]

That Citroen probably only needs a gearbox oil change I had a Citroen picasso with a slipping auto box changed the oil and it was fine

[@karl3927]

I hope someone takes your sound advice to see if they can save that car from being scrapped. I seem to recall Ed China doing the same thing on a Porsche Boxter with similar gearbox problems and it cured the issues.

[@kyliandc9276]

Those ones have the automated Manual BMP gearbox so it probably just needs a new clutch

[@arthunterns]

I have to say, when you started washing engine bay, my heart stoped. I was just thinking how water is getting into BSM, fuses on top of the battery :). This is good car, I have it couple of years. They are prone to water leaks.

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

Great stuff , turd well and truly polished ! 👌🏼🧱👍🏽

[@telocho]

It’s an easy and relative simple repair, there are two valves in the automatic gearbox that fail. An upgrade is available, and it can be done without taking it out.

[@everydaydetailing6449]

its the semi auto manual gearbox version, has a few issues

[@user-qe9hf9bx3l]

Yesss!!!

[@stephandolby]

Nice job. I wonder if the scuttle drains were blocked thanks to all that detritus? :)

[@accessfm]

Great to see another video from you. I'm a bit of a novice on this one so could I possibly ask what you used to machine polish. Could you use a regular angle grinder with that buffer head on it, or does it have to be a specialised machine polisher? What sort of buffer head do you use and what polish product do you use on older car paintwork like that? Any help would be appreciated. Great video.

[@everydaydetailing6449]

I use a Dual action polisher, with various pads, I used Rupes uno protect in this vid, its a mild cut compound and also a sealant, so a "all one" product

[@kickapoo621]

That mobile lift that you have scares the shit out of me! How can you trust that thing? I imagine it, tipping over in every possible direction.

I cannot believe that this vehicle is a candidate for the scrappers...! It´s all in the name, isn´t it? Citroen; on the way to the scrappers! VW; oh, it´s looking nice (bloody booring, but in one piece). I can do with that....

[@rafaelgarridosalgado99]

Its a shame you didn't fix the gearbox or put another one in from the scrappy. It will be a lovely car once it's been sorted. And with the current prices of cars in the UK, you could get a good amount tbh! But atleast its nice and clean now :)

[@everydaydetailing6449]

Thanks Rafael

The automated manual gearbox was a literall dogpileofsht...

[@fill7t1]

I did think why are you doing it 🤔, using as a test subject. For pricing and testing new product FTW!

[@mattalki]

Scrapping that car over a possibly faulty transmission is silly. The trans probably just needs serviced, and even if it needs replacement, there's no reason to scrap the car with only 80K miles on it. The detail looks excellent. Hopefully that keeps the car from being wasted.

[@everydaydetailing6449]

It has one of these semi manual/auto boxes .. think it needs a clutch and new motor.

[@mattalki]

@@everydaydetailing6449 Sorta like VW's DSG, I suspect. Yeah, those clutch packs do go out. If it was a slushbox, it probably just needed a fluid change. It's pretty hard to trash a transmission like that - the PO must have been really hard on it.

[@Cher007]

Totally stupid that a car this new was destined for the crusher. There have to be some crashed ones that could be parted out to fix this one!

[@everydaydetailing6449]

hopefully it will be fixed
