    Hello all! Wanted to make an intro. We are first time owners of a SAAB and have done so with the acquisition of a nice 2000 9-5 Aero 5-speed manual wagon. Purchased to be a winter car and so I'll be going through it sorting some items before it gets pressed into daily duty. Currently has 208K...

    Hi All, Just inherited a W-Reg 2.0 SE Auto Cab HOT, and am going over the little things that seem to be wrong with it. Its got the usual sticky roof, and the interior smells of fuel when you sit with the engine running and the AC on, so i'm assuming there is a split vacuum hose somewhere - also...

    Guys, Currently in my fleet I am running a 'Y' reg. 9-3 Cabrio. Is has done substantial miles ( 238k miles ) and is fitted with LPG. However it has a couple of serious oil leaks. At the timing chain end things are fairly straightforward. The crank seal needs replaced. However at the 'other'...

    Hi, Not sure where to put this so I've put it under Classic Saabs and Sale/Parts. I have a year 2000 93 SE automatic convertible with 257,000+ (yes really!) miles on the clock which sadly just has to go. I use it every day but it's showing it's mileage now. I'd rather it did someone some good...

    Good morning everyone! I am the proud owner of a 2000 9-5 Aero. Not my first Saab (1990 900 Turbo) but almost as much fun as my first. I am very happy to see that there is a community of helpful people that share a love for these great cars. I have some DIY questions, but I will make another...
  9. Part number requests
    I have a 2000, 9-3 2L SE petrol turbo Saab and I think it needs a new turbo. So a part number for the turbo would be appreciated, please. My other half thinks he may be able to fix my car! :thumbsup:

    Hi I have a chance to buy a 2000 95 griffin or a 2005 93 linear which is the better choice they are both the same price I already have a 2003 93 convertible, 1999 2 litre turbo 95 and a 1994 900 v6. I am leaning towards the Griffin as it was Saabs Flagship but the Linear is younger any...

    I am combining a 2000 9-5 with a "junk" 2001. I have swapped out the hood, hatchback (it's a wagon), and 4 doors, the ignition lock and various parts. I had the twice reprogrammed to get it to run and now I am cleaning up issues. Right now I'm dealing with audio system. I'll post in that...

    I have a 2000 9-5 with 180K. Yesterday I was driving and the car shut down, when I tried starting it I had to feather the accelerator and it caught but sounded all wrong. I got it up to 2000 rpm and it quit again like it was starving for fuel or air. The sound it made was (bup bup bup bup bup)...

    Hi, as I think I said in my intro, I've recently become the new owner of a Viggen ragtop. Have previously owned both a 99 turbo and 900 turbo so know something of the marque. Anyway, got a number of questions that I hope some of you might be able to answer. 1) Have 2 keys, 1 with banana fob and...

    I have a 2000 Aero with a bad alternator. When looking at replacements, they show replacements for '99-'00 as one part number. They also show 2001 - 2006 140A alternator as another part number. Is there any way to make the later alternator fit? Has anyone made the swap? To make it more...
