  4. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    My 2003 Aero started exhibiting the pulsing under light braking recently. Research said it could be the ABS ring on the CV joints broken or cracked. O/S Wheel duly off and checked but on prodding the ring came away and stayed there - you can't remove it in situ! ABS lights etc on dash now -...

  6. Saab 9000 (1984 - 1998)
    Hello, The Tube that connects oil pump to engine block located in oil pan. I purchased O Rings from dealer and they seem loose, if I double them up they fit snug, not tight, but seemingly just right based on my knowledge. I may be over looking a reason for these being loose ( expansion etc. ). I...

  13. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    First of all big Hello from another newbie !! I'm a little embarrased as my first post is about a problem the car has encountered. I've just bought my wife a 2003 9-5 Aero (Facelift Model) and the Warning Traingle, ABS, Brake lights all flashed up (well let's just say that the dash lit up like...
  14. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    Yep - it is a bloody stupid as it sounds. I put my ring on the dashboard, knocked it and it plink, plink plonk as fell into and down the drivers side windscreen vent. I have tried to locate with a flexible graber but it is lost in the depths of the aircon somewhere. Does anyone have any...

  16. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    A while ago the steering wheel controls on my R reg 9-5 started developing faults - i.e when I pressed for volume down, the volume went up; when I pressed to search the radio it changed to CD! Then my horn stopped working. Its due for an MOT and I need to sort it out. I think it is a fault...
  17. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    Don't know if this has been covered here or not. Took my 05 MY 2.0 in for 36k service today, usual excellent job by local dealer (expensive but want to keep warranty intact). They also put new O rings in the water pump - "coolant leak from coolant pipe to water pump" - service reception said...

    Hello everyone. I have had my car for just over a month now (1999 9-3 TiD S) and in the process of sorting out some of the niggly faults with it. The problem is that the steering wheel stereo controls and horn don't work (Horn wired to seperate switch on the dash) and air bag light is on. I...
