    Hi guys, Writing for a qyuick bit of guidance ref above. Car is 55 reg 93 convertible aero with xenon lights.

    Hi There, I don't know if anybody can help me with my problem. I just changed the heater rad as it had been leaking but when I took it for a test ride, although the heater was fine, I noticed my main beam was not working. I had spare relays which I swapped and made no difference but as they...

    My 1999 9-5 estate decided it would not light up its passenger side main beam and had me scratching my head. A search gave the result in SAABSCENE - the orange Filament monitor box may have a cracked or dry joint between the circuit board and connectors. I prized open the box looked at the...

    2004 9-5 2.0T Vector Automatic Estate Main Beam won't stay on. When I've the headlights on, and pull the stalk to put main beam on, the main beam lights come on, but as soon as I let go the stalk they go off again. The stalk doesn't "latch". Is this likely to be the stalk or a relay?
  9. Saab 9000 (1984 - 1998)
    My Saab 9000 (93) 188.000 kms developped a noise a while ago. It's related to driving speed. A fried who heard it last week said it's a failing main bearing on the transmission (he had similar with his saab 900 many years ago). Is this a known problem? If so, any instructions on how to replace?

    Hi all I generally dio an oil filter change every 6K on my TTID which is obviously more frequent than the service interval. Usually the intermediate and main service alternate but what do you guys do in the case of more frequent oil changes? If the normal (too large) interval is 18K then would...

    Hello all. About 1 month ago I purchased a clean 2005 Saab 9-3 Aero with a 5-speed manual transmission and 108,000 miles. The car has more rust than I would normally like to see, but mechanically seemed to be in good condition. I bought the car in Scotland and drove it back to Germany, and it...

    Hi All, Visited a Saab specialist today and got 2 new key fobs coded and asked about the oil leak on my newly acquired 2003 Saab 9-3 Aero. Good news is that the cim is fine (the key fob I had was faulty) and I now have 2 working key fobs. The bad news is (Now I know why the car was cheap) the...

    Hi. Looking for help as I've just lost the side light and main beam on the drivers side of my 2006 9-5 Dame Edna with HID headlights.

    What’s inside the black box on Pos battery terminal (Battery Main Switch)? Most likely I have a going bad Battery Main Switch. It looks like a coil and a resistor. Does anyone have a schematic for this Battery Main Switch or know what components are inside.
