My wife bought me a 2011 93 Aero convertible 3 days (yep 3 days) after my 2000 MCY Viggen was totaled. The Aero only has 14,000 miles on it. I received it about 4 months ago. When I got it it was 90+ degrees outside. Needless to say I had the top up and down several times (with no issues.) I...

My 1998 2.0 litre 9000 Anniversary has a front drivers brake which only squeals when you put gentle pressure (From about 20mph or less) it. I've had new pads, caliper put on it and the disc is less than a year old with no corrosion on it. The efficency is very good and no pulling or feedback to...

I have noticed some minor issues with my Saab 9-3 2007 and was hoping for an advice. Although the problems are not related, thought I better create just one topic rather than splash out on 2-3. Rattling: There's a piece of plastic that rattles occasionally, especially if the gear is too hight...

Hi, The squeaking is bugging me and it only started after I cleaned the engine & bay after a turbo change & sump drop.. (Good old truck wash!) If I WD40 the belt the noise goes away but then comes back after a short while. What is the best way of stopping the squealing, change Belt, tighten...

I've got a squeaking from the front of my '92 LPT. It only sounds when the car is being driven. It comes and goes but is getting progressively more common. It tend to increase whilst the car is turning - not necessarily tightly. It's definately a "squealing when it's turning" type of squeaking...

Hello All Had the car about 3 months now, covered about 5,500 miles and very pleased with it. It's now done about 17k total miles. Does anyone else have problems with a squeaking driver's seat or know of any particular issues or causes etc ? All help appreciated. Cheers SaabNumber5

Hi there, I am a newbie to this whole scene and have just bought my first ever Saab which is a 9000 1998 2.0t cse anniversary with 80k on the clock and is an auto. Really has brought back the joy of driving again and am so happy with the car. There are a few problems with the car, the main...

Hi all This morning I've noticed a rather irritating and embarassing squeak from one of the front wheels at low speed. The squeak disappears once the brakes are applied. I can only hear it at low speed say less than 20mph. I was stuck in a jam last night for an hour..on and off the brakes...

Morning. The drivers side air vent on my 9-3SW moves/flexs within the dash making a horrible creaking noise. I'd like to remove and try the silicon lubricant trick but am unsure as to the method? ie does it have fixings that can only be accessed when dash out? Any body else tried to get one...

Hello, My 02 Aero is doing my head in ! The rear shocks sound more like an 80's Metro than an exec. cruiser and they're really annoying me. The rear sounds like it squeeks all the time, whether it's around town or motorway. Is this a known thing ? Do they shockers fail at the rear ? Ta...

Well after 5 attempts - they still cannot silence my nearside rear seat that rattles around as the mounting bracket at the top is non adjustable. Does anyone else have this too?- As mine is squeaking away permananently now as I drive and I am told that "there is nothing they can do apart from...

Another saabtastic problem - looking into the engine bay there is a squeaking noise coming from the left hand side - please don't tell my this will be expensive to fix (already had my final warning from the bank manager ). A post mentioned idler pulleys but I'm assuming that's for the V4...

Car: Saab 9-3 SE Sport M99 200bhp (upgraded to stage three 270bhp) Issue: For some time I have had a squeaking sound that may be coming from one, or more, of the wheel assemblies. The noise IS speed dependent - though at speeds of more than about 25mph I can no longer tell if there is a noise...

Hi all good to meet some of you at the Ruby Aniversary at Newark. my 9000 Griffin 2.3T has developed an onnoying speak from one of the pulleys. This has since developed into whinning when driving off up to 30mph and the engine doesn't sound smooth at tick over at all. I had a sqeak on the...

Hi Folks, I've got a squeaking sound from the front of my engine. My car is a 1993 9000i. It only happens when the engine is warm, and at idle makes a squeak-squeak-squeak sound, not unlike a a hungry seagull. As the engine revs it turns into an high pitched constant sound. It seems to be...

This is part 2 of how to renew the front brake system on a V4. In part 1 you can find information on dismantling and on which parts to buy. Before describing how to put it all back together again, first some additions to the previous posting. About dismantling: - detach the brake lines before...
