    Hi I have a 2001 93 and I noticed it is not pulling as well as it used to, it starts and runs perfectly just not as quick as it used to be. If I disconect and plug the hose going to the turbo wastegate it is back to normal, so I assume the turbo and hoses are fine. I checked the resistance...

    Hi Folks, My first post. My 11th Saab. Just had 7 years trouble free motoring with a BMW 320d, but it was never a Saab, it was boring and perfect, not like my old 99's and 900's. I've just got hold of a beautiful 08 black Aero convertible, but the dreaded 'bing bong' limited performance...
