  5. Saab 9-3 Sedan/Combi/TurboX/AWD(2003+)/Conv(2004+)
    The dealer told us the belt had been changed at 100k, it had, but not pump! We think we stopped the engine before damage, but when we took things apart the belt fell off so we lost the timing marks. This is a 8 valve 1.9 TiD and I have found two lots of timing mark info on the internet. Crank...

    Simple really, I have a TTID 180 and want the upgrade to 210 bhp, but maptun.com only lists that in the full upgrade rather than "software only" section, with the implication that you have to physically swap the ECU. Neo Bros on the other hand lists it as software only, and £100 cheaper -...

    Hi, looking to buy a 9-3 in the next couple of weeks and just have a couple of questions, what is the best model to go for in the diesel 120?150?180? And in the petrol models what are the differences in the aero models? I'm looking at 07 08 reg as per budget and am really thinking of importing...

  14. Saab 9-3 Sedan/Combi/TurboX/AWD(2003+)/Conv(2004+)
    Does anyone have any info on the Haldex system used on a Turbo X? My previous car had a Torsen permanent 4WD set-up which was fixed at a 53% rear bias. I was wondering how the Haldex XWD system compares. I appreciate that XWD is not permanent 4WD and that normal operation is for it to drive...

    The wife's 9-3's stereo is a little 'tinny' to say the least. Especially compared to her old TT with Bose and my current BMW 5. I've just taken it to my local car audio place in Grimsby to see what they suggested and I've been quoted £545 for them to fit new front components (tweeters in dash...
  16. Classic Saab 9-3/GM900 (1994 - 2002)/Conv ( -2003)
    Hi I've just bought a 2001 Saab 9-3 convertible with 63,000 miles. I had a heart attack last year and told my wife that I intended to purchase a motor cycle, so the Saab is a compromise to prevent her from worrying that I might do myself harm. I'm pretty exited about it and am looking forward to...

    Hello, I have a 2006 95 with the Fiat (I think?) engine, one of the problems is a Fault Code for Turbo Overboost, and just a few days ago a Turbo Hose Split and was replaced. I would like to have a look at the Turbo and just taking a peep under the bonet I can see it tucked away at the front of...
