    Hello all, a newbie here to Saab's and this forum. Although i have found myself surfing the forums quite a bit since buying the car and this place has been a major help on a few things already so thank you. I've got a 2005 9-3 Linear 8v diesel. I bought it just before Christmas so am still very...

    Like many before me I have a problem with the alarm on my 93 sounding randomly and now it is showing as a theft protection system fault. Initially I tried setting the alarm to door only - still goes off. I checked out loads of posts, following which have rewired the back window to bypass...

    First sorry for the alliterative header, or perhaps I've set a new trend. Anyway the Pinch Protection kicks in on the driver's door window of our 57 plate 93 Conv when there's no obstruction, but the passenger door window works fine. However, if the window is raised with the door open then it...

    My window started playing up when I got to work this morning. Just what I need at 3:15!! Quick search shows I need to reset the pinch protect. So it's down, up, down, then hold up till a beep? Will this work? As if I put the window down and then up the first time, I'm pretty sure it'll bounce...

    Hi, Just wondering if someone could shed some light on a problem with new purchase. Yesterday we collected our 55 plate 9-3 vector sportwagon and there is a warning light in the centre console stating there is a "Theft Protection Failure". Can anybody help? :confused:

    Has anybody used this? Does it actually do the job? Does it look stupid? Cheers in advance

    A few weeks ago I started to get the "Theft Protection Failure" message on the SID on my 2004MY Aero estate. I assumed originally that it was probably the batteries in the alarm box but now I'm not so sure - I don't have the alarm going off randomly, and the car is just under seven years old...

    Since the weather is good for this weekend I thought I would see if I can do anything about the erratically intermittent Park Assist on my recently acquired '05 Aero Estate. Access to the sensors would appear to be by unclipping the corner pieces then removing the upper protection panel but I'm...

    I was woken up at 1am this morning by my car alarm going off - horns, siren & flashing lights. Now the car is displaying "Theft Protection Failure" on the SID. Can anyone suggest the cause, or better still a fix. Is this a common 9-3 problem - I didn't find much with a search. Thanks

    Hi, I usually add contoured mud flaps to my cars as I believe they protect the sides from stone chips as well as keeping spray down. Apart from Elk parts I haven't found anyone offering saab genuine parts - and they are not cheap. Any advice or recommendations please people ? Im wondering if...

    Hi - can the drive protection on a 57 sat nav be disabled ? The use the handbrake on generic units like Kenwood etc but I guess the newer ones use Canbus.... Has any one done it ? Also does any one have a manual in PDF form for the newer sat navs... ? I've only found one for the car its self...

    started car this morning and got 'theft protection failure' message on SID, no problems with alarm (yet!) looked on forums and could only see less worrying 'service alarm' posts which mostly pointed to failing batteries in pack under front wheel arch, is my message likely to be this or something...

    Is it worth getting the safeguard protection £249 on my nearly 1yr old convertible or the GMAC value guard.
