Search Results for ‘load’

I've done lots of searching but couldn't find a definite answer to these two questions - 1. What should the load index be for tyres on a MY2002 9-3 2.2 TiD? The car has 16 inch wheels, and the tyre size according to the handbook is 205/50/16 W. It doesn't mention the load index. 2. I've...

Hello to everybody! I have searched for an answer to my latest problem, but I can't find any through previous posts, So I will try a new thread! I run a '98 9-5 2.0 LPT Manual, and for the last few weeks, I get a strange misfire under load. Now, when the engine is cold it runs like a dream...

I'm looking at buying a set of winter tyres for my 9-5 (no, I don't want a debate on the lines of "why"!). However, I'm unclear as to the load rating required. My old 15" wheels had Michelin Pilots which were 205/65x15 94V (went to alloys a couple of years ago so I still have them). The Saab...

I've just had to replace my front offside tyre. Its worn a strip off the outside edge. Next step to check the tracking, although the nearside has no uneven wear. Anyway, I digress. When I went into the dealer in Leeds, I asked for a 225x45x17 94W. He ordered it and it came that day! Great...

Hi there, My aero estate currently has no load nets for securing items in the caverous boot Does anyone know how easy the 'nets' you can get from saab dealers are to fit, what they are and how they are fitted? Do i have to take the rubber strips out from the boot floor area to allow use...

Just been looking at new tyres for my 9-3 and came across load indexes. My current tyres have 88 as their load index. Any ideas as to what to aim for and what it really means. Yours, a confused saabisti

1992 Saab 9000 CD 2.3l V4 Turbo 5-speed Transmission Recently the temperature here in NY(USA) dropped to the freezing point, unluckily for me, my car did not appreciate it. Now when I leave my house in the morning when its cold the car acts a bit sluggish but seems to respond normally. Once...

I've been given orders from SWMBO to collect some bits from Ikea on the way past tomorrow. The flat pack is for a 202cm high piece of furniture. Assuming the package is no longer than say, 210cm, am I going to get it in? I suspect I might have to fold the passenger seat right forward, and I...

OK, I'm gutted for the second time in 2 weeks. My tyre man who had promised faithfully that he could get the XL variant of the F1 GSD-3 (225/45 94W 17) by today has called to say "actually, they're the ordinary ones (225/45 91Y 17), the others will take another day and will cost 25% more"...

Got one cheap off ebay. No instructions, just lumps of metal and bag of bolts. Before I let loose with a drill has anyone got any fitting instructions. Thanks

This is a problem which bothers me most when trying to park. If electrical load on engine is high (air con, full loack on wheels etc) the idle blips between 500 and 1500 (ish). My concern when parking being that if i release brake just as it blips it surges forward (or backwards) and one day...

Hi All, My 95 9000 aero's turbo bounces under heavy load. Acceleration is fast into the upper end of the boost but when it peaks it immediately drops back down to the into the low end of the boost and then climbs back up the the top again, In a fairly fast fashion..kinda like riding a bucking...

I am experiencing a knocking seemingly from the top end of the engine when under load. You can rev to the limit when in neutral with no noise at all. Any ideas? Not really noticeable from cold so wondered if the timing chain tensioner could be the culprit as it is oil driven. Plenty of oil in...

Do Saab sell a dog guard and load liner for a MY 2001 9-3? Genuine reason for asking.
