  1. Saab 9000 (1984 - 1998)
    My old '95 LPT has given up on me ( 240 k ) so I have decided to treat myself. I have purchased a '97 Aero - Ho Hum speedy or what. I need to access a good, thorough service schedule to keep it in the manner to which it is accustomed. Already had new timing chains and modified air filter...

    Will all the 'my heater has stopped working...' posts switch to 'my air-conditioning will not give me cold air...help!' Just a thought!

    after years of sweat,blind alleys, broken gearboxes,quick fixes,bodges the aeromonster is as I planned... The final chapter was to replace the throttle flap which was modified when in sweden to allow it to idle when the cams were "off" this needed a re-do of the idle speed with a tech 2 which...
  5. Saab 9000 (1984 - 1998)
    As the car (Aero) was booked in for a service with WMSS I thought it was time to have the heat plate removed while they had the car. WMSS were very good got a courtsey car ( first time I've driven a non-aero 9K, was a 2.0 lpt, makes you appreciate the power of the aero). Typical though the...

  8. Saab 9-3 Sedan/Combi/TurboX/AWD(2003+)/Conv(2004+)
    I guess it was only a matter of time (two weeks infact) before my satnav system failed completely. I've tried to use it 6 times since I've had the car, and it's only worked twice. Last night while on my way to an evening meeting, it finally died completely. started off getting the "no disc in...
  9. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    Well it's finally happened!! My baby has reached the 66k mark!!! A figure that filled me with dread, but knowing that it's all serviced and I have already had the relevant 66k service done over 2 services since 60k by the specialist, I'm actually feeling pretty good about it!!! So that's 14k...

    Since I've finally fitted my speedparts stage 3 to the aero, I may as well post a few thoughts: Engine Spec: 2.3 Aero Speedparts stage 3 Full JT 3" Decat Custom intake with ITG filter Heatplate removed. Well, the words 'doesn't hang about' spring to mind - I haven't hooked up the boost...
  11. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    Well I'm well pleased today. On the recommendation of the local dealer, I yesterday took the 9-5 to a small place called Mota-Bars in Leamington, who fit tow bars, parking sensor kits etc, and do work for the Saab dealer too. Anyway, they fitted a four sensor rear park assist system onto my...
  12. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    Now I've had this Saabscene sticker for ages, but never got round to fitting it. But as I had a day of cleaning out the car yesterday, I decided to remove the sticker of the trader I bought the car off from the back window, and replace it with the Saabscene sticker....and the result is rather...
  13. Saabscene: Performance
    Ok - so I finally sorted out a couple of my upgrades for the '96 Aero. General thoughts below: 1) Speedparts Stage 1 (265bhp, 317ft-lbs ) - This took about 10mins to fit and had me laughing on the first outing. I hadn't actually expected a huge amount but was well impressed. Reaction and spool...
  14. Saab 9000 (1984 - 1998)
    Hi everyone, First off, thanks for all your input and help on the previous thread I started about Aero private sale pricing, that was very useful indeed. I never actually got to see the Aero we discussed, as it was sold before the weekend arrived. Gotta be quick I guess! Anyway, went down to...

    I have finally got the phone installed in my 02 Aero. I will write up the procedure as an addendum to the "Mk1" instructions on Leon's site as soon as I can get round to it. It should have been straightforward, but it wasn't. I never found the end of the lead from the sharks fin aerial. I...
  17. Classic Saab 9-3/GM900 (1994 - 2002)/Conv ( -2003)
    My 1999 9-3 is finally broke-in! Hit 100,000 miles this week!
  18. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    Thanks to you all with your input about my tyre query a couple of weeks back when my Aero had consumed its original Pirellis in 8,000 miles. I finally decided on the Goodyear F1 Extra loads.Yes they do 225/45 ZR17 94W in Extra Load version,after being confused by their website. Having said...
  19. Classic Saab 9-3/GM900 (1994 - 2002)/Conv ( -2003)
    Hi all, been without an internet connection at home lately as I've been too poor to keep paying for it Anyway, good to be back! My 9-3 has been doing this for a while now. Every morning, regardless of temperature but worse on cold days, has a rough idle immediately after starting it. Put...
