    Hi Chaps. This is a curious one. Yes, the weather's been great lately, time for the Air-Con! Why does the dash face level vents have different temperature air flowing? With the temp set to lowest, drivers window vent and centre vent (RHS) has cold air - lovely! The passenger side window vent...

    Hi, My first post so go easy on me! I have recently purchased a 2006 (56) Saab 93 TiD Estate. I took it to a garage to have the Air Con recharged but was informed that the compressor will not kick in to operate the system. They tested the compressor and made it operate via their laptop so...

    Hi All, I can hear a slight metallic rattle from my Saab 2009 9-3 1.9TiD when the aircon is on and it disappears when it's switched off. It had a new AC compressor and alternator after a catastrophic failure in France but it was repaired to a good standard (I think) Any ideas as noting is...

  8. Saab 9-3 Sedan/Combi/TurboX/AWD(2003+)/Conv(2004+)
    My aircon has started making horrible rasping, grating sounds, increasing with rpm; still seems to work but sounds worse every time now. Any idea what that is; is it dying?
  9. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)

System is fully gassed up and compressor etc appears to be engaging on/off when I press the econ button. Still get no cold air - any ideas on what else to try given that there are...

    Hi Guys On my 2007 sportwagon Tid 150 vector sport I replaced my (extremely battered & extremely empty) condenser at the weekend (aircon hasn't really worked in my 3 yr ownership other than for about 2 weeks a year or so ago after a regas) & had every intention of changing the receiver/drier...
  11. Saab 9000 (1984 - 1998)
    My 9000's aircon switch won't stay on This is the third one that's failed, so I'm looking for an alternative. It's the square, push and latch type, except it just doesn't latch! The compressor kicks in if I hold the switch in. I can wedge the switch in, but it vibrates loose. I'd like to...

    The air con fan on my 1999 Saab 9-3 wouldn't stop blowing yesterday and consequently drained the battery. The alarm started sounding (at midnight on a Sunday!) for some reason, I think just before the battery was fully discharged. Now I've attempted to jump start the battery, but nothing...
  14. Saab 9-3 Sedan/Combi/TurboX/AWD(2003+)/Conv(2004+)
    Hey Guys was wondering if someone can point me in the right direction, my 93 aircon hasn't worked since I got the car, the seller was honest but didn't know what was wrong with it. I have had a look at the condenser and it doesnt appear to have any holes in it and all the pipework appears to be...

  16. Saab 9000 (1984 - 1998)
    Hi. After a vigorous drive my 9000 started making a noise like a blown exhaust from the fron'ish, particularly noticable on the over run. When the rain stopped for long enough to check it out the noise actually appears to originate from the aircon compressor, whether or not the clutch is engaged...

    My 2001 9-5 Aero's developed a fault that prevents it starting, or doing anything at all. Symptoms are below, but the thing is, the Local Saab garage visited with the Tech2, and said that it "wouldn't communicate". So, they swapped out the DICE, and still the same, no communication. they first...

    Setting Air-Con to off as default (95 MY06 model) Hi All, I've found a number of posts about how to turn the Air Con (A/C) off by default so that you never have to remember to turn it off each time you come to start the car in the mornings. However they all seem to cover the earlier 95 models...
