Hi Guys,
Just bought 2003 C3 1.4 automatic. Of course, couple of hours after buying the car the engine light went on... well... nm that - couple of hours later, a green "s" surrounded with a circle went on just next to the engine light - does anybody knows what it stands for?
+ if anyone can point me to a pdf version of the owners manual that would be just great! :)
Thanks!

Hi drore, welcome to the forum.

'Sport and Snowflake' symbols showing are a classic sign of automatic gearbox problems.

Its the auto box ECUs way of saying 'gearbox problems'.

https://service.citroen.com/ddb/ for the manuals

The green light is the dim-dip lighting (side lights)

The engine in orange is the 'check engine, fault present' lamp

It's never a good idea to buy a car without a manual, or secret key card :roll:
