I will be doing an oil and filter change sometime this week but i'm not sure I have the correct oil filter. I have a 93 TTiD Z19DTR engine. according to Halfords parts catalogues all the saab 1.9diesels use the same filter but looking in my Haynes manual they are different?? I thought I had...

I'd like to renew front shocks on my 2006 9-3 Aero saloon. When I search for 9-3 shocks I see various Bilsteins listed (B2, B4, B6) and other makes like Monroe. Price varies from £75 a pair up to double that depending in make and type. I imagine Saab fitted different shocks to the Aero given...

Hi Guys, I'm planning to give my car a bit of TLC and swap the glow plugs out while I'm at it, since it's done 65K and I've no idea if they have ever been done. But I'm having a nightmare trying to figure out which glow plugs to order - from what I can tell WIS says that the Z19DTR (which I...

hi all i have just serviced my new 9-3 2.0t and used the recommended mobil 1 new life 0w/40 fully synthetic not knowing which oil it has been run on in the past i think the previous owner was a respectable kind of bloke as the car was kept in very clean condition i just hope he treated the...

Evening all, new to this forum and new to SAAB. Just bought a 9-5 vector today, 2.2 TiD. 130k with full saab history and although it is very well specced and very comfy the engine sounds like a tractor!!! My main concern is that I drove home, 60 miles no dramas, sat on cruise at 75, did think I...

I've noticed a few threads on code readers but which one is right for me? I have a 2007 9-3 1.9 150 TiD with facelift dash not exterior EML came on yesterday after the car was sluggish to pull away. Seems fine now but would rather sort it soon as...... PS. Saw these on Fleebay; U480 and D900...

Hi guys - Recently bought a very nice 1999, 9-5, 2.3 turbo. The SE badges on the front fender was missing - bought them new. Being a bit of a perfectionist I would like to know the correct position of them. We are talking about the SE badges positioned below the repeaters and over the fender...

Hi, Electrical stuff is not reall my area of expertise (if you can call it 'expertise';)) I can do basic fault finding and diagnosis but this being a Saab and a bloody CAN-bus car i thought i would ask for some advice:) Car died yesterday, my other half was driving it at the time i was not in...

Can I have a definitive answer to the using & finding the correct stuff please - especially if it gives me a chance to buy say 5 litres of the same substance but not in little Saab over the counter packs at £££ per litre? Hopefully I can then have a bit of a flush through as well. Many thanks...

I'm trying to resurrect a phoenix. The car suffered an engine fire a few months ago. I pretty much have replaced all the damaged parts, but I believe I have connected some hoses incorrectly. And am not sure about the placement of this valve. Here is a link to some photos of the valve in...

My pads and discs look about ready to change. Just checked my Haynes manual for specs and it says the torque for front caliper bracket is 210Nm + 30deg, rear 130Nm + further 45deg. The front torque seems incredibly high - more like the kind of value to hold hub nuts on! Does anyone please know...

Hi all - just wondering the best tyre size to get for a 1999 93 2.0lpt SE ? It currently has 205/50/16s - The alloys are ok but could do with a returb so was looking at maybe getting a secondhand set off the bay of bits with reasonable tyres already on them. So need to know what size tyres will...

Oy, I've got what seems to be the classical wet boot on left hand drive 98 9-3 5 door. It's always damp in the rear corners of the boot and the front windscreen fogs up on the inside ( this winter i had to scrap ice from the inside more than a few times.) In rooting around under the carpet...
