  1. Saab 9-3 Sedan/Combi/TurboX/AWD(2003+)/Conv(2004+)
    I want to add a sub woofer to my 2010 93 convertible. Ideally I would love an under the floor, spare wheel well unit like the factory one that was fitted to my 2006 93 estate. Anyone know if it is possible to fit one to a convertible. If not, what is the best unit to fit and not completely eat...

    Hi to all members. I own a Saab 9-3 2011 TTID convertable which is giving me a few headaches and emptying my bank account with DPF problems. Hoping to get some advice on the problems I've got with it.

    I always thought there was something inalienably 1970s about joining a car club, particularly one for a quirky make like Saab. Yet here I am because I need some help with mine. Incredibly, a garage couldn't sell the 2000 93 convertible I found, so I bought it for not very much at all and apart...

    Hi All, Just bought a 2003 9-3 2.0 . Last owners son drove it and it overheated. It was running okay till this happened but now it doesnt start, it sounds as if there is little or no compression. It cranks and all pulleys turn but not a lot of sound coming from the engine sounds pretty free...

    I live in New York and hate the cold. Yes, this is overkill for New York, but I want it. Normally I would add a remote starter to the car, but in a Saab, this is very hard. I would use a block heater, but this would not work for my wife at work because of public parking. The instructions 12...

    Hi Folks: Not sure how best to describe my headliner problem other than to say the headliner on the passenger rear side seems to pop out of its holding frame/track every once in a while (when raising the top). This does not seem to happen all the time but has happened a few times in the last...

    My wife bought me a 2011 93 Aero convertible 3 days (yep 3 days) after my 2000 MCY Viggen was totaled. The Aero only has 14,000 miles on it. I received it about 4 months ago. When I got it it was 90+ degrees outside. Needless to say I had the top up and down several times (with no issues.) I...

    Hi, Quick introduction, I'm Graham and we bought our first Saab a week ago. It's a 1998 2.0 SE Convertable with 87,000 miles. Today though, it appears that the idler pulley for the serpentine belt/ aux drive belt exploded, taking the drive belt with it which is now in bits all over the engine...

    Just saying "hello" to everyone. Just purchased my first Saab and am eager to learn all there is to know about it. Already having issues in finding "certified" repair facilities and (ugh) locksmiths.

    It seems to be when you go over a bump or small pot hole. I'm getting a creaking metallic sound!!! I've replaced lower suspension arms and rubber bushes, also track rod ends. The steering seems fine now and goes in a Straight line. The noise was there before I carried out this work, so I now...

    Hi - I have a GPS "Speed Monitor"from my previous car. It gets power from Cig. Lighter socket but have found this to be a bit impracticle on the AERO and very unsightly. Is there a simply way to hard wire the unit so I dont have cable all over the place? Thanks Rod :confused:

    Hi. Could anyone tell me the correct tyre pressure for a SAAB 93 convertible? Also I seem to get a slight vibration when driving. Tyres have been changed and balanced with no difference. Thanks Bill
