    Check engine light is on. Taking my car to the shop to just find out what a code means gets expensive. Can I just buy a standard code reader or do I need a special one for a 2000 Saab Viggen? Thanks

    Good evening! I wonder if anyone can give me a hand with the following problem... I have finally got fed up with the collapsed driver's seat on my 2006 Sportwagon, and decided to replace both front seats. Luckily enough, I was able to find a very smart pair of seats for a saloon on Ebay. From...

    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, I'm new to Saab after buying a 2007 9-3 TiD 120. It's a lovely car to be in however it sometimes struggles to start even when the outside air temp is 15°C. I cleared all the error codes but one code remained, P1180-04 (fuel filter heater circuit open). When testing relay 4 (fuel filter...

    Hi all, Looking for a bit of advice. My car has given up starting and is registering a P0335 error code for crank sensor circuit A. I've got a new crank sensor to fit, but it is an absolute pig to remove the old one so thought I'd check if there's anything else that might be causing it...

    Hi Guys I have a 2006 Saab 95 Estate. Its got the halogen headlights and i tried some HIDs in it. When i turned them on, they didnt come on and the dash display mentioned a failed bulb. I assumed it needed some warning cancelers so got a good set of them and the problem still happens...

    Hi all Just had the car serviced and after a few days got a P0400 error (only had generic fault reader with me at the time), BUT the car is remapped with both DPF and EGR removed? I thought P0400 was EGR so am now puzzled as it's been mapped out. light came on when starting at work, once reset...

    Pretty daft but since topping up my washer fluid, the warning message still comes up each time I start the car. Obviously I can clear it with the steering wheel controls, but anyone else have an idea what could be causing it? Or better still how to resolve? Thanks

Phoned the guys who fitted and they reckon the had to unplug one connector but plugged it back in fine. Changed fuses to no avail so any help would be appreciated ! Only had the Aero a month now...

    Hi All- First time poster. I searched, honestly. Sorry for the long post. I figured better to include the details than not. I got a sweet '06 9-3 Convertible at a fire sale price. It was technically running but sounded like absolute crap. I only looked at it at night, made the deal and...

    New member looking for help. Before I take my car to a garage my 2009 93 1.8t (36,000mile) has started miss behaving. Twice in the last 10 days its felt sluggish and feels like its holding back then I get the Limited Performance error on the dash. Next time drive the car its like its hardly any...

    Hi all, About a year ago my 2006 Saab 9-3 convertible started jumping into limp mode. Reading the error code with an OBDII I found the error code P2138. This code suggest that there is something wrong with the gas pedal sensor. As I have no experience with doing any repairs myself, I...

    Hi all. Slight problem. For some reason every time I start off the passenger seat belt warning keeps going off with nobody in the seat. And I have to constantly remember to drive with the passenger seatbelt done up. Any idea of what could be causing this? It may just be as simple as a fuse or...

    Hi My lovely saab9.3 is at the mechanic. My OBD Reader is giving code P1109. I think is something to do with the manifold. Has anyone had the same error code and could they share some info about it? Thanks Mark

    Hi everybody, I did a scan today ( Delphi ) and got the following errors. What should I be worried about ? Is there a need to change the BCM module and / or other components ? The car however is running fine and I have no messages on the SID. Saab 93, 1.9 TiD, MY 2006, SportCombi Vector...

    My wifes newer 2008 Aero Vert 55k, a number of times when you put in key (have 2) error message trun wheel re-insert key. This happens with both keys and the fix seems to me to park with the wheels strieght. Dealer of other Saab expert can't figure out why.
