Hi all! I have 2001 Saab 9-5, 2.3l MFI Turbo. I have Flashing CEL, low power and shaking engine, aND mis fire in cylinder #2.Trouble codes indicated catalytic converter, and Oxygen sensor. I'm helping my son in law troubleshoot issue. He has replaced cat converter and oxygen sensor to no...

I'm happy with the general power output of my car, except when starting from standstill...which is dangerously slow (as covered elsewhere). I was thinking of trying the software re-flashing (there's one offered by Neo Bros for £300+), which changes the car from 150bhp to 180bhp...effectively...

I'd appreciate any pointers please. Immobilizer light has stopped flashing. There's nothing wrong with the immobilizer, both my keys work fine and car starts without any issues. Alarm both internal sensor and tilt also works ok, siren and horn go off as they should. Just can't work out why the...

(warning: mechanical newbie)My left rear tail light started flashing yesterday when I locked the car - just a couple of times then stayed off - but today it's staying on.I saw some vague references to a power distribution unit online so I had a rummage around in the boot and can see the fuse box...

Hello, I am having issues finding a place that is able to flash a used ECM for my 2004 Saab 9-3. I have called local and non-local shops that work on foreign vehicles and was told "they can't do it" and "they don't know anyone that can". I then contacted a GM dealer and they said they could...

Hi, just bought a '03 9-5 Vector 2.3 auto estate to replace my reliable old 9k. All went OK for the first 25 miles, then the indicators decided not to work. The would be OK occasionally but with the odd missed flash. If I stop and turn the engine off, then restart the will work briefly...

Can anyone help me. I have noticed my xenon lights keep strobing when my side lights are on. Is this a common fault or because I have replaced my side light bulbs with led ones. Has anyone else had this problem. Please help

i put l.e.d foglight bulbs in today in my 03 9-3 to replace the old stock ones and when the car is off the lights flash for a couple minutes(I read this is normal) but when i have my lights on with no fogs they still blink even with my highs on, any suggestions?

My 2007 9-3 has the trailer module and constantly flashes the trailer’s LED turn/brake lights. It sequentially lights one side (turn), both (brake), and the other side, a brief pause, then repeats. Nothing on the running light lead. Key out or engine running, car’s lights on or off, trailer...

My LH indicator is flashing much faster than my right. All 3 bulbs are flashing, but (the same?) relay is flashing too fast, at twice the rate, on LHS as RHS (which also has all bulbs working). I thought this circuit used an electronic timer in the relay, so is independent of current loading...

Can anyone help please with this, my car when being locked used to activate the hazard light to show it had been locked, this has now stopped working can anyone advise me on this please Kind regards Chris

Hi guys, It's been quite a while since I've visited the forums. I haven't had too many problems with my Saab over the past year but now that has changed. There are 5 fault codes that my OBD scanner is catching. 2 of them cannot be identified and are probably Saab specific but I"m not sure...

Hi, I have a recently bought a 9-3 03 Plate. I think the previous owner mis-treated the car a little and I've had to spend a fortune gettng a new radiotor, suspension d-pads, alternator belt, cam shaft sensor etc etc etc. Most covered under warranty (THANK GOD!!) one problem was that the...

Hi, my 9000 is playing up, it won't start at all even after I turned it on around 30mins before, there is a flashing symbol above the volt text on the dash maybe it has something to do with it. Also there are a few part that I have to replace like the heater core and water pump, but I don't...

hi all cleaned throttle body last weekend. replaced the white check valve yesterday. and now a get a flashing engine check light....(god i wish i just left it alone as the car was running great!#). i did'nt replace the rubber seal between the throttle body and manifold could this be the cause...

This seems like an earth fault of some kind; When I pull the flasher stalk (with all lights switched off) on my '97 CSE the headlighhts flash but also my brake lights come on and the pictogram on the dash lights up showing the rear lamps as being faulty. Does any one know where I should look...

After a recent fairly quick drive of around 80 miles on a French autoroute, as I drove up an exit slip road and around the roundabout, the SID audible warning activated together with the oil pressure warning 'oil can' symbol which illuminated briefly then flickered and then went back to normal...

Hi I have had the flickering xeons when turning them off, but this morning they are constantly flickering when the headlights are off (hadn’t turned them on) is this a bulb failure or worse

Could anyone shed any light on why, after towing a newish trailer, my indicators are now flashing rapidly. I have checked all inducators and they all work however they are acting as though one of the bulbs have blown. Everything had been ok when towing and the towbar was fit by saab
