  1. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    In addition to getting a TD04 on my 9-5 2.3t vector, I decided to replace the breathers while I was at it and bought the full kit including the oil trap. However... having just been out to do it, I realise my car is a 2004 (MY2005) and hence the PCV system is actually completely different, as...

  4. Saab 9000 (1984 - 1998)
    I just purchased a 1989 Saab 9000 turbo. The turbo and intake tubes were loose. Tightened them up. after starting it back up smoke came out the exhaust. then oil starting squirting out the fill tube when I gave it gas. Maybe something backwards. The Hayens manual did not have a diagram of the...

    I need to update my AERO 9-5 crankcase ventilation as it's has the older type PCV on it, my question is can i just use crankcase filters instead as I dont like the idea of nasty dirty smelly oil being recirculated around the engine into the inlet manifold and cobra pipe, i mean whats the point...
  6. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    I was changing a headlight bulb today and I had a quick look at the breather system. I have the update kit here, but haven't gotten around to fitting it yet. I read somewhere that if the breather hoses have directional arrows on them, it is the updated version, so has this been updated already...
  7. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    Hey guys, So I just installed the new pcv upgrade kit on my Saab 9-5 Linear 2002 and replaced all the hoses part of the pcv, but I still have a pretty bad oil leak. It is coming from the passenger side close to the wheel and seems like its starting from somewhere overtop of the oil pan. Also...

    Hello All !! Could you please advise on whether this is a broke one way valve or some kind of restrictor valve ?? Cheers. Vin.

    Hi, I did a search but pcv is too short a term for it to pick up. I'm sure there are threads but I couldn't find them, hopefully someone can answer this for me anyway. I recently picked up an '02 9-5 with the 2.0t lpt engine. I tracked down the service history for it, and at the last service...
  10. Classic Saab 9-3/GM900 (1994 - 2002)/Conv ( -2003)
    I spent an inordinate amount of time reading the threads on the PCV check valve, Crankcase Ventilation Pipe and the banjo Bolt. After thorough research and a lengthy wait for some parts I managed to complete my project and the vacuum is working superbly and the "check engine" light went off and...

    Hi All, I want to check the condition of the PCV system (2003 new shape) to make sure it is not blocked etc and just wondered if anyone had a diagram please to show where it is on the engine etc. ? All help greatly appreciated. Kind regards Ian
  13. Classic Saab 9-3/GM900 (1994 - 2002)/Conv ( -2003)
    Hi I've just rebuilt my turbo on a 9-3 SE (118K) and fitted a PCV kit (no.6) It seems to be pulling better than before ;) but the fuel economy has dropped noticeably. I used to get 29-33mpg driving to work (17m on mostly motorways) but since the rebuild I'm getting 23-25mpg on the same journey...
  14. Help, Advice, Saabs and Motoring
    Hi all I had a broken "pcv valve" (the bit that goes into the cam cover) so I put a thread into the cam cover and made up a small manifold, and hooked up both the hoses again, The previous "stock" "PCV" valve was just a manifold and you could blow both ways through it. Is my approach putting...

    I just bought a very well taken care of 99' 9-3 LE with the HOT set up. I've been reading there was an issue with sludge in the 9-5's, and an upgrade was released for it. Is this kit needed for my 99? The previous owner put a bunch of miles on it (has 162k) so I'm guessing it would of seized by...
  16. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    Just picked up my pcv kit from my local dealer. A comprehensive kit but no instructions. I can see where the pipes go no problem but what is the piece of foam rubber and ties wraps for? I presume it stops something rubbing against something? Anybody got the instructions or a picture of where...

    Good Morning, Do I have the "old" version of the PCV? Also, I seem to have an oil leak from the turbo area. Its dripping onto the oil filter then onto the floor. Any idea's where this may be coming from? Last question, I recently had my drop link replaced + a laser wheel alignment...

    Hi I have PCV kit #6 fitted , all pipes in good condition but getting slight mayo at oil filler!! When checking the pipe going into the oil filler I noticed that the arrows on pipe and check valve pointed into filler is this correct? I would have thought it should suck vapor out ratther than...

  19. Saab 9000 (1984 - 1998)
    The vacuum hose on my 9K's PCV system fell apart (brittle) and when I also tested the one way valve, found that it was blowing both ways. (which would account for the intermitent rear main seal oil leak) I have 2 questions that I am hoping someone can answer for me. 1)Which way should the flow...
  20. Classic Saab 9-3/GM900 (1994 - 2002)/Conv ( -2003)
    Seems like there are several PCV kits available and also an extra's kit now! Any recomendations as to which is the best to buy and any fitting issues for an average home machanic? Car is original 2001 Aero so assume its the original PCV kit however did the dealers ever fit replacements kits as...
