CITROEN DS series Technical Manual page 2

There are many car manufacturers, makes, models
and versions on the road today but—as we all
know—none of them compares to Citroën in its
engineering excellence, especially regarding
suspension comfort, roadholding, and stability.
In this book we tried to describe how the various
subsystems work. We never intended to replace
service manuals or similar technical instructions.
Illustrations are schematic, focusing on the
principles of operation rather than on minute
details of implementation.
This guide is not linked to any specific Citroën
model but describes all systems and solutions
used on a large number of cars from the glorious
line of DS, ID, CX, GS, GSA, BX, XM, Xantia, Xsara
and the C5.
