  1. Classic Saab 9-3/GM900 (1994 - 2002)/Conv ( -2003)
    Well, work on the saab has been going well! Steering brace fitted, turbo problems sorted and even the rear view electric mirrors move again now. Next problems are headlight wipers not working (havent looked at yet) and the front left speaker not functioning, then its on to the suspension...
  2. Classic Saab 9-3/GM900 (1994 - 2002)/Conv ( -2003)
    Hello, I was so stoked when I found this forum and read the thread about my exact problem and the fix was so almost simple. Alas, my wife's midlife crisis car has no IAC valve to clean. Am I left with a bad computer or a blowed-up manual transmission as my only outcomes? Any guidance would be...
  3. Saab 9-3 Sedan/Combi/TurboX/AWD(2003+)/Conv(2004+)
    I have a tt satnav living on the "Thingi's" Shelf....... I bolted the bracket thro' the ashtray ....... But that leaves me with where to attach the Road Angel ...... TT's safety camera warnings are pretty useless :mad:....... I don't need to see the RA, so I guess I could shove it in the...

    Hi I have a 93 TTID 2008, with 6 disc changer in dash. It accepts CDs, but when I press CD/AUX to play one of them, just displays loading. Any ideas?

    Say for instance its a third full..... Then I chuck £50 worth of unleaded in it :rolleyes: No it ain't happened...... But what I'm asking is...... What happens ..... (I'm surrounded by blondes in my house ya see) TBH I have no idea what diesel smells like ...... I should imagine different to...
  6. Saab 9000 (1984 - 1998)
    Sorry if my terminology is wrong, but the intake manifold as seen in the below picture (or at least the 4 silver tube things behind the engine) blew off (there was quite a loud bang) after I put the car into accessories and closed the passenger and driver window and then removed the key...

    Hey guys, my AC has been acting up recently and I was wondering where I can put more/new refrigerant/freon into my car, and what kind to use if it matters. I have a 2004 Saab 9-3 Linear. Thanks, Alex
  8. New Saab 9-5 (2010 - on)
    Hello everyone I've got a problem starting my car. Normally when I put the key in, the car was giving clicking sound, and the steering wheel lock got disengaged. At the moment there is not sound and the steering wheel remain disengaged all the time. Key is being accepted but the car will not...

  10. Saab 9-3 Sedan/Combi/TurboX/AWD(2003+)/Conv(2004+)
    I've bought myself a HIDS4U Ultimate HID conversion for my dipped beams. Testing them before fitting gave no errors on the SID so I'm very hopeful of a good solution. My question is that I can mount the nearside balast unit on the battery box with no problems, but the offside is stumping me...

    Hello all, Not been here for a while ! my old 9k CSE 2.3 came off the road a good few years ago for a rebuild and has not made it back yet. Outline of my dilemma: I have or will soon have a fully rebuilt B234L engine with forged pistons a minor rebore, L&B'd crank, new con rods and some major...

  14. Saab 9000 (1984 - 1998)
    Fresh from my success of replacing my offside headlight reflector which has proved a quite reasonable improvement, I started thinking about whether it would be worthwhile putting relays into the lighting circuit. Whilst this would mean that the bulb monitor won't be effective, that's not the...
  15. Saab 9-3 Sedan/Combi/TurboX/AWD(2003+)/Conv(2004+)
    thinking today whilst sitting in jam on M25 dartford tunnel, What is it about saabs that makes them magic ? I mean they are certainly not built as well as they could be and you do wonder if it is going to start in the morning without some kind of error mesage in the SID. But yet despite all this...
  16. Saab 9000 (1984 - 1998)
    Apart from the c/lighter, as it (charger) sticks out to far and hits the g/stick, can the lighter be "moved" to the opposite side. Just wondered as I'm putting it (phone) in the "shelf" down from it. Btw, its a s/e holder/charger from Tesco, it's a simple wee thing and great, but this is the...
  17. Classic Saab 9-3/GM900 (1994 - 2002)/Conv ( -2003)
    When i raise my car up og9-3 where should i put the jackstands the instructions book describes it as being on the same place where i put the lifter that comes with the car. But i dont find that to be a good place and that its a big risk of destroying the grip for the lifter since its just thin...

    Having owned cars from run of the mill manufacturers my wife and I were tempted into SAAB ownership and have put a deposit on the below rather than a Scenic or C Max. Price and style did it for us, plus it drove beautifully, was very well spec'd (1/2 leather, sat nav, heated seats etc)...
