C5 Haynes Manual Latest

Unread post by frenchcarnut »

I suspect this has been done to death as on other forums but just got this back from Haynes today:
Haynes Customer Services Co-ordinator wrote:I have checked our systems and we are in the process of writing a manual for the C5 but unfortunately this will not be available for another year.

They told me that they were not producing one for the CX and it appeared about six months later!

Well if I'm honest I'm not convinced by their latest statement. This seems to have been Haynes's line of response for the last couple of years

Yes I have wondered that but having spent the money on brand new C5's, Citroën had better watch out for our human rights and allow us to bypass all manner of "dealer only" computerisations :lol:
