  1. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    Hi all I have a saab 9-5. I have trouble getting a positive close on the sunroof. I move the knob forward as per instructions it closes as it should. However as soon as it is fully shut it instantly goes into the tilt/vent position so it is difficult to get a positive close. I try to take my...
  2. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    Hi, I am new to SAABs but have experience with BMW/Volvo/Mercedes. I recently bought a 2001 9-5 2.3 cheap with what the seller's mechanic had diagnosed as a bad alternator. The symptoms were that the system was not charging, but it would run fine off the battery until it was out of juice. I...

    :thumbsup: Just a quick note on a positive slant. I live in Birmingham, I know... but my wonderful children live in not so sunny Torquay. I promised my elder boy that I would see him play football in the finals of the schools district cup. Low and behold his team qualifier for the finals, so...
  8. Saab 9000 (1984 - 1998)
    I noticed a week ago that the positive battery cable on my 1993 CS running to the starter motor had some insulation that had gone brittle and fallen off. I replaced it with another, but when I got the old one off, I saw that it had corroded inside and that the insulation around the end bolted...
  9. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    3.0tid – a positive experience I picked to 3.0tid because the 2.2 in a 9-5 estate was too weedy. Car was an ex-demo with about 11k on the clock. Over 3 years 8 months and 65,000 miles I can say that I had absolutely no engine related problems with this car. The problems that I can recall are...

  12. Classic Saab 9-3/GM900 (1994 - 2002)/Conv ( -2003)

  13. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    I know that if you are thinking about buying a 9-5 and look on here for advice as to what to consider, you might get the skewed view that they are unreliable. But don't forget, people like me who've never had a Saab before this one, use Saabscene to exchange thoughts on problems or potential...
