I have a 2.2 HDi C5 Exclusive, one of the last of the diesel Mk 1, from 2004, VIN: VF7**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff]
The Haynes manual contains only "representative" wiring diagrams, and insufficient detail.
I used to have an excellent manual, that consisted of 26GB of data, and included everything needed for servicing and repair, with all the wiring detail. However a disk crash corrupted it, and I then discovered that the backup copy is damaged, too.
Looking for a replacement, I found the emanualonline site: https://www.emanualonline.com/search/?q=citroen+c5+2004
However that site offers too much choice, yet all the manuals they offer seem much smaller than the one I've lost. Can anyone advise me which manual I should choose? Happy to purchase elsewhere, if that source is inappropriate.

Have a look on ebay for the Citroen Service box, comes on dvds to install on your pc. It will not be the latest version though since that is only on-line so might be around 2014 but will be ok for your car.

If this helps it is the one I used for my C5 2004. It needs 27gig of disk but had everything I wanted!

I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure!
I used to ride on two wheels, but now I need all four!
