A couple of days ago I reset the mpg reading & the usual "Trip Computer reset" message appeared on screen... but it has stayed there & now doesnt scoll thro any of the other computer data readings.....temp, mpg, DTE etc etc. Does anybody know how I can reset the system

FOR SALE Just got an Autel TP100. It basically plugs into your OBDII socket and gives you loads of live data and records some of it too. Does a lot, so probably best to look here for details - Autel website I got it from America a few days ago, but am now considering a Scangauge II as it can...

Hi guys! Just done a 400mile round trip journey to Abbott to get my ECU upgrade. After being installed the car was jumping and guttless! They tried hard for hours to fix problem, new di, valve with the 3 pipes, bov, airflow meter, new exhaust checked turbo and vac pipes all to no avail! Had it...

I have a problem on the speedo mileometer trip. It will not reset to zero. It was dodgy last time I did it, took two or three attempts. Now it won't reset at all. And it gets worse. I now find the DTE is stuck at around 300 miles (give or take depending on driving conditions) despite filling...

Just bought a Trip computer off ebay for a '95 9000 CSE to replace the clock, P/N 45 19 443 and when fitted the display is very dull. There is also another one up P/N 41 10 607 which one should I be using for the '95 car? I've tried the computer in a '98 9000 CSE and it works fine (45 19 443)...

The illumination on the trip computer and the display below the speedo/rev counter is very dim. I know its supposed to be controlled by a sensor on the trip computer. Is this a simple fix?? I've checked connections behind the trip computer. There are two connectors there. One with about 8...

Does anyone know where I'll be able to get rid of a dead 9-5? The engine's most probably beyond economic repair (timing chain gone and who knows what else). I would like to think I could strip out the good bits myself but don't have the space to have a broken car outside the house. Any where in...

I've read around the forum a fair bit before making the jump to posting, and I've seen others relating various problems with the trip computer, but I don't think I've come across anyone with the specific problem I have! Basically my 06/06 9-3 2.0T Aero seems to have a mind of its own when it...

We’ve come to the end of another fantastic Canadian holiday and I’m a little sorry that it overwhelmed content here in the last few weeks, but such is the way of these things. Lance, I’ve got your emails and will get back to you as soon as I land in Oz. So, on to some Saaby topics before I...

I havea 9-3 05 TDi Vector Sport. I cleared the trip display and all the info aboout fuel consumption etc. and the usual message came up saying that the trip computer had cleared but now it will not go off. As such I have no info such as outside temp, miles to empty etc. Any ideas how I clear this?

Volvo have released a CD of summer road trip songs, so naturally I couldn’t resist tearing strips off theirs and releasing a list of my own, which you can then proceed to tear strips off whilst writing your own lists in comments. To Volvo’s list: “Born to Run” Bruce Springsteen* “S.O.S.” ABBA...

Hi Folks Not sure if this will gather much interest, but I thought I'd post it anyway. http://www.mrandmrssmith.com/glovebox-guide Looks like the Boutique hotel company has joined forces with Saab for some kind of driving tie-up (presumably driving by many of their hotels!) Thought the...

Greetings, Am currently looking at buying another 9000 and one has come up for sale that looks quite nice. It's a 1996 3.0 V6 CSE auto. The seller says that to start the car you have the press the remote fob five times before you can start the car, I also think he said something about being...

Well, I flew in today after a hellishly long flight. Grrrrrr. I’m in LA and the first thing that happened was getting my fingerprints scanned and my photo taken. Security is everywhere. The next thing that happened was a greeting from 1985Gripen, who met me at the airport. I don’t have...

I think I’ve got tipping sorted….. —— I’m going to sound like a complete noob here, but what the heck. Maybe some of you Euro types that travel to the US can help me out here. Computer…. I’m bringing my laptop along for the trip. Here in Australia we run about twice the voltage in our...

Today a few of the local Saab nuts got together for a drive. There was only three cars - Drew B, Saabill and I - but it was a brilliant afternoon. We were joined by Brendan B, NSW chairman of the Saab Car Club of Australia and part-time Swedish tourist. If you ever come and visit Tassie...

Our last full day in Melbourne. —— The Priscilla verdict - predicatable and pretty poor jokes, great music and some brilliant, brilliant costumes. The funniest parts? There were two. 1. The fact that one of the leads reminded me very much of Richo. 2. Seeing Michael Caton (from...

My friend, who we shall refer to as Dennis27k as he now has 3 9000s on the road is a bit of a technophobe so as asked me to post this for him. The car concerned is a 1997 CSE 2.0lpt. Only 94k on the clock and looks like a good one. He tells me that the trip computer does not give a reading for...
