    She's gone, parted ways with the lowest mileage ttid aero in Ireland (I think) @ 77k miles, served me well, a few niggles along the way, but nothing like some of my previous cars. Well - looking for landrover forum to keep a TD5 on the go :) , that is if I manage to drive past...
  3. Saab 9-3 Sedan/Combi/TurboX/AWD(2003+)/Conv(2004+)
    When i switch my car off and lock it, the clock on the SID and the illumination on the ICM and climate control stay on. I have read on here that it may be a fault with the ignition switch. Can the switch just be swapped or will i need to have the key recoded or will i need Tech2 for any reason...

    2004 9-5 2.0T Vector Automatic Estate Main Beam won't stay on. When I've the headlights on, and pull the stalk to put main beam on, the main beam lights come on, but as soon as I let go the stalk they go off again. The stalk doesn't "latch". Is this likely to be the stalk or a relay?
  6. Saab 9000 (1984 - 1998)
    My 9000's aircon switch won't stay on This is the third one that's failed, so I'm looking for an alternative. It's the square, push and latch type, except it just doesn't latch! The compressor kicks in if I hold the switch in. I can wedge the switch in, but it vibrates loose. I'd like to...
  7. Saab 9-3 Sedan/Combi/TurboX/AWD(2003+)/Conv(2004+)
    Daughter's 2003 9-3 high beams work but won't stay on, and it's not the circuit breaker. Holding the staulk back, the high beams stay illuminated. It feels like there's something worn down inside the switch mechanism. 103,000 miles, everything works fine except this. The car is due for...

    Time has one to sell my 9-3 convertible after 3 months of owning. I can honestly say I was the worse car I have ever owned. Cheaply made, cheap interior rattles, scrapes. So if anyone is considering a Saab, just be warned :)

    Hi All, recently had the car service and a couple of bushes change. For some reason the EM symbol wont go away. That car is performing as usual, mileage is good for my type of driven anyway. Any ideas?? Thank you
  10. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    Hi. realize there are quite a few threads on this but believe this is a new problem. In the wet and this maybe associated with turning rear wiper on (rear wiper moves an inch and then stops), the rear lights come on and stay on. If you turn the headlights on the rear lights go off, but when...

  12. Saab 9000 (1984 - 1998)
    Hi all, I was on holiday for 3 weeks so left my 1995 9000 CS hatchback unused. When I got to it, the battery was flat so I jump started it. All is well but I cannot close my boot (I'm sure it was fine before the battery). When I go to close it, it doesn't catch. If I look at the boot latch it...
  13. Saab 9000 (1984 - 1998)
    We live on a steep hill with a steep drive and I normally park with the car facing up hill. Unfortunately the passenger door has stopped holding itself open and in the last week it has slammed shut on our sons leg, my wife's head and my fingers. All the other doors are fine. Is it an easy job...

    In 1960 SAAB GB was set up to import the SAAB throughout Great Britain. Since that time, there have been a lot of milestones and relocations with the company, most recently in 2005, when GM Europe setup their consolidation with Saab along with Cadillac, Hummer, Vauxhaul, Opel & Chevy. With the...

    Yes. Sadly, the Saab 99 has not fared well in the latest Folksam safety report. In all honesty, you should stay right away from it if you want to get to the shops and back in any state that remotely resembles being alive*. But the rest of the Folksam report is good news for pretty much...

    Hey everyone, im new to this forum so hello to everyone who reads this. I have a little problem with a 99 Saab 9-5. As the title says the rear tail/brake lights stay on. This is when ever the key is in the on position or the car is running. If you turn the car off the lights go out, but thats...

    Hi I've just developed a problem with my boot lid on a 2000 saab 9-5. When I close the boot the catch doesn't keep it shut. Should I be looking at a electrical fault or is it as simple as the latch has just gone kput, & needs to be replaced. Thanks for any advise offered.
