The Citroën CX, a masterpiece of French automotive engineering, was launched in 1974, and the 1979 model year saw significant refinements and updates. The CX was a departure from the typical boxy sedans of the time, boasting a sleek, aerodynamic profile that was both visually striking and functionally beneficial. Designed by Robert Opron, the CX’s body was a testament to the importance of aerodynamics, achieving a drag coefficient of just 0.35, an impressive feat for its time. This aerodynamic design not only contributed to excellent fuel efficiency but also significantly reduced wind noise, providing a serene driving experience. The CX was available in a range of body styles, including a four-door sedan, a five-door wagon (called the "Break"), and a three-door coupe. The 1979 CX featured a range of powerful and efficient gasoline engines, including the 2.0-liter and 2.5-liter four-cylinder units, as well as a 2.7-liter V6 engine. These engines were paired with either a four-speed manual or a three-speed automatic transmission, offering a smooth and engaging driving experience.

Beyond its striking design and powerful engines, the 1979 CX was renowned for its innovative features. Hydro-pneumatic suspension was a key feature, providing a remarkably smooth and comfortable ride. The system allowed for a unique self-leveling ability, ensuring a consistent ride height regardless of load. The CX also featured an innovative dashboard design that was considered to be ahead of its time. The 1979 Citroën CX Factory Service Repair Manual provides a comprehensive guide for mechanics and owners to understand the intricacies of this complex and stylish vehicle. This manual offers detailed information on the components, subsystems, and procedures for repair and maintenance.
