Here is a Czech site with pdfs of manuals. The Bx is in English, the AX is not and I haven't checked the others. Most are broken down into chapters. The titles are as follows. If you copy them into a web translator you will get the gist of them

Hi Shane,

>Here's manuals I do know of... Please add some more so we can make a list !!

It may be helpful to have this link:

http://www.you-me-and-us.com/Site/Citroen%20publications%20list.html

Please, of course, let me know of anything which ought to be on it but isn't!

Best, T

Hi Erik,

I don't know how to contact them, but the '2CV Katalog ND od. rv. 1979' is in fact the multilingual 1991 Parts list I scanned from microfiche a few years back. I'm delighted that they are offering it, but some may be disappointed to discover that it is chiefly for cars a good bit later than 1979. Can you pass this on? Also, it is now a rather out-of-date copy. The latest is available free here:

Hi Shane and all,

I've just put up a preliminary version of the last version of manual 465 for the DS19. It has a Bookmark index, and is paginated, so, for example, you can go to an illustration by dragging the scroll bar to find its number, then return to where you were in the text by way of the "back" button.

The manual was scanned by Joe Hovel, from Roger Wilkinson's original. Much thanks to both!

I'll leave the earlier edition up for a while, as it has the advantages of pages which will fit straight onto A4, and half of it is ocr'd, so you can search for text within it.

It may be helpful to pass on the address of my list of Citroen Publications, which includes links to all the publications I know of which are available for free download. Of course, if any one knows of others...​


Best, Tony J.​

New DS19 Parts List edition
I've just put up a new scan of 466, the DS19 Parts list.

This is updated to June 1966, so covers all 3-bearing cars. It now covers the manual gear change option, and the Cabriolet and Prestige.

This is again taken from an original which Roger Wilkinson has made available, and which Joe Hovel has kindly scanned.

It is bookmarked as usual, and the pages will fit on A4 if you wish to print them out. The file size is a fair bit smaller than the earlier version it supersedes, but the page count is 90 greater.

I've left the early, 1957 parts list up, as it contains some earlier pictures which are of interest and it is of moderate size.

In case any one has a paper copy of this there is one page (255A) missing from the original which it would be nice to replace (about the late-model screen wiper). Also a couple of illustrations, pages 63 and 64, which I've substituted with what i believe are the same thing from the previous edition.

Best regards, Tony J.

Xantia Wiring Diagrams and Hydraulic
I got hold of these Xantia wiring diagrams. They are in several files. 7Mb 2Mb and 200K. The website they are stored on is Sport Climbing Australia. Yep!! Thats what I do when I'm not under the bonnet.
http://www.sportclimbingaustralia.org.au/0.5/citroen/Electrics-1.pdf
http://www.sportclimbingaustralia.or...lectrics-2.pdf

They have been very useful to me. The latest being fault finding an intermittent ABS, turned out being the Relay near the battery.

Found a Polish site with a lot of info (most in Polish), but including a manual in English for 2005 C5s. Not a workshop manual, but more detail than the owner's manual that came with my car.

http://ftp.psyborg.rpg.pl/ gets you to a directory listing

Added manuals for the GS and SM
Tony has been one busy man. He's added the GS and SM manuals and tech books to his site recently. All up to his usual fine standard.

As Traction owners are now probably aware the TOC has made its technical material available to members only. It is not an economical proposition for many to join TOC so this resource has become unavailable. I have sent a CD to Tony Jackson for inclusion in his web site of Citroen Technical material. It is now available here.

http://www.agua.nu/ds-files/tony-jackson/Traction Avant/

I do hope that these are of use to everyone.
Cheers Gerry:cheers:
 
Thanks for that, Gerry. I was a little dismayed when TOC did that with their site, but, it's their site, they can do as they please. This time around, I'm downloading what I can for the Traction stuff.
 
C5 2006 MY06 Handbook sought after

Hi there Graham, I'm after the same thing, were you successful in obtaining a hand book, and from where?
Need one myself,
Thanks, Steven
 
I've been searching for a C5 Workshop/repair manual to suit 2002 V6.
The Haynes manual does not include and V6 info.
I've found these manuals:
http://www.emanualonline.com/Cars/Citroen/Citroen-C5-Workshop-Manual.html
I asked them if they cover the 2002 V6 and they answered YES ...
wondering if anyone has experience of them ... understand that they can only be installed on 1 computer, and you need an install code etc (costs UKP 10) so if they are as complete as the description declares, pretty good value.

My last posting giving directions to the site from which I got an SM manual seems to be unreliable. The site has downloads of manuals of several older Citroens & other cars for those who stray. They are reasonably voluminous (800 pages in my case) & cost around $25, they are reliable to deal with & are Australian. Put in "www.repairmanualdownload.com" should get you there.

Hi all,
i am really struggling with the aircon system on my 1969 BX19TRI. I despeartely need a wiring diagram for the later BX series . managed to get a Schema de principe des BX 16 RS et TRS option climatisation ( 1985 ) from a good UKBX member but unfortunately the wiring details are quite differrent to the BX19TRI. I was able to sort the language.
Be grateful for a copy of the later reries circuit diagram in French or English. The polish manual referred to is haynes and does not show the aircon circuit.
Thanks
Ram

That doesn't look like the factory manual Chris. It looks more like a collection of the regular factory bulletins on dealing with problems as they arise, more recently called InfoRapids. Like the XM, the BX wiring diagrams would be a separate volume as there will be many variants. It may be worth starting here: http://citroen.tramontana.co.hu/cooling-heating but your best bet may be to talk to a local Citroen specialist who has worked on Citroens for a few decades. Recently appointed dealers will know little about the BX and are unlikely to have any documentation.
