 Just checked on servicebox website that Citroen no longer let you access your car's part details for free.

It used to be free to browse the site and get details of original parts number and then shop around.

Any other way to find out the original part numbers of you car for free?

Thanks

 Not quite free, but cheap, you can get the workshop manuals from email or other places online

 Not that I know of. I've also read of some dealers no longer supplying parts to owners. Supply and fit or trade only.

Another nail in the coffin of customer loyalty - their new marketing campaign seems to be "Citroen: we're no worse than most of the others".

It's a very disappointing move by PSA/Vauxuhall/Opel.

 Yes - irritatingly you have to pay for access to parts now. Its been very useful for years being able to access the codes and diagrams.

You can still look up characteristics, with a little workaround, but this doesn't work for parts.

I've used this website before:

 Thanks, good substitute. Decent diagrams - looks a lot like like the old official Citroen one

That's pretty good. Looks like a Russian clone!
