    Hello all. A mate with plenty of clutch change experience (non-Saab) has put a new clutch in my 2.3 Annie. Pig of a job apparently ("never again!"). But with the new kit installed and the system bled, the box won't engage gears with the engine running and if started in gear, won't disengage...

    Hi, I have been looking for a clutch for my 2004 car. It seems there is more than one possibility and I think it is either 624 312 233 or 624 312 234 (LUK parts). The first is supposed for be for transmission numbers between S00001 and C03504, and the second for C03505 on. So I looked for my...

    Hi All New to the site, but hoping to catch up fast...... Whilst driving my 1999 Viggen Cab along the motorway I went to change gear and my clutch pedal just went flat to the floor with no effort at all and stayed there! I managed to pull over onto the hard shoulder and the RAC man that had a...

    So I need to replace my clutch and dmf, would you buy a luk kit or a original saab kit? Which is better? The luk kit is a bit more expensive. These are the best deals I could find. I think the standard clutch in the saab 1.9tid 150 is a valeo. original kit...

    Hello Wondered if anyone could advise if my slave or master cylinder has failed, the symptom is that the clutch peddle operates normally when first driven, but starts to stick half way down after a few gear changes.

    I was told that DMF is on its way and needs replacement. Southampton Saab dealer quoted me £950 for the new clutch and DMF, when the local garage wanted £1080 but that would include a new clutch slave cylinder. Southampton Saab can put one in for me without labour cost but the price of the...
