    Hi all, My 07 93 Tid has about 180kmiles on the clock. It has been using a bit of the oil the past year and I suspected the turbo for some time, oil around the intake pipes and pipes out of the turbo. It got progressively worse so I changed out the core of the turbo for a new powertec part...

    Hi guys, new member here, I bought a saab 9-3 off one of my friends who was thinking of scrapping it after the fuel pump failed. I stripped out a fuel pump off another saab 9-3 54 plate which was a write off but the vehicle was starting and driving. This is where the fun begins. Unfortunately...

    So went to swap the diesel filter on the 93 and whilst unplugging the water sensor from the loom, the brown wire snapped at the plug on the LOOM side :mad::mad::mad::mad: Wiring is hard quite a ways back, so is it possible to bypass the water sensor, say by shorting the wires?, can probably...

    Just wondering if anyone is, or has used Shell V-power Diesel..? I've started using it given that it's only a quid or so more expensive than a standard tank. Back in the days when I had a sportier machine, it was V-Power petrol all of the way, but this is the first time I've used the stuff with...
  12. Saab 9-3 Sedan/Combi/TurboX/AWD(2003+)/Conv(2004+)
    Hi Just bought a 150 and have a few questions: 1. There is a very slight wurring noise on acceleration in low gears, I can only hear it with window open and only at low speeds - is this normal? 2. Where is the OBD Diagnostic plug?, as I am ordering a scanner from ebay. 3. Is there anyway I can...

    Hi guys, I Dont have WIS, so Where is my EGR Valve located and is it easy to remove? I'm wanting to remove and clean the EGR as a fault came up on the DTC regarding the EGR. Is that Wynns EGR3 any good? Or would removing the EGR and clean it that way be better? Cheers, Dan

    Hi all... I have recently been reading through posts and working out the logic for myself regarding these EGR valves... I have made a blanking plate enbtirely blanking the intake at the bottom of the valve. I have run the car like this for several weeks now with no noticable detriment to the...

    The (fairly) faithful 95 2.2TID 156,000 miles decided not to start this morning. It fired up, chugged happily for about 10 seconds and then cut-out. Now it turns over, but it won't fire up at all, so I'm waiting for the AA to toddle round. I don't think its battery, but it'll drain donw iof I...

I'm looking to buy a 05 plate 9-3 1.9 TiD Vector Sport but was wondering whether these models were fitted with the DPF/Emissions stuff? I've read here that these devices affect...

    I have a Saab 9 5 3.0 TiD 2002 (150k) which over the last 2k miles has been very slightly hesitant for a fraction of a second on the odd journey which normally only happens once and then everything is fine. There has been no engine management light warning of any problem. Coming home the...

    I posted a message around a month ago about a leak in the rubber hose between the engine and the expansion tank in my 2003 3.0 TiD Vector (155K miles on the clock) and how the car was fixed near Maidstone in Kent. Unfortunately, as we were driving back to the continent two weeks ago, the engine...
