    Hi I am new to the forum and have recently done some simple modifications to my 2000 93 base. I am attempting to create enough boost to make my turbocharger whistle. From what i have researched i have a low output turbo installed in my car. What this means i have no idea. Currently i have...

    Saab 9.3 2002/3 convertible 2.0t. I have an annoying whistle which is intermittent but dissapears when touching brake pedal. It sometimes still whistles when car is stationary with engine running, so not associated with the brake discs. If vaccum pipe is disconnected when engine running and...

    Hi all. New to Saabscene, not new to Saabs though. 5 saabs in 16 years and still very happy. I have a 1.8t 2006 Sportwagon. Has anyone come across a whistle on the turbo when depressing the clutch to change gear. I have had it checked under warranty at my local dealer, they have checked and...
  6. Saab 9-3 Sedan/Combi/TurboX/AWD(2003+)/Conv(2004+)
    Can anyone assist. I have just had a new intercooler fitted to my Saab 9-3 2.2TID (2003- 75K). I now have a problem of an engine 'whistle' when accelerating and exhaust fumes within the cabin, the whistle varies in pitch on acceleration and resembles a siren in the distance. I'm taking the car...

    55 Vector 150 TiD I have a whistling/wind noise which seems to be coming from my rear passenger window at 40mph+. The window is fully open as far as I can tell and the window trim seems okay. If I open the window the noise disappears. Any ideas?
  8. Saab 9000 (1984 - 1998)
    Hello, Im new to the world of both saabs and turbos (I've driven vans for the past 4 years) and recently picked up an N reg Saab 9000 turbo 2.0 lpt. I only paid £360 and despite the somewhat worn gearbox everything appears to be in order. This forum has been a great help for all my initial...

    Does anyone with a 1.9 TiD hear turbo whistle and, if so, how loud is it?
  10. Classic Saab 9-3/GM900 (1994 - 2002)/Conv ( -2003)
    I have a whistle while the car is running on idle, If i remove the cover near dipstick it is coming from the little white valve, Now does this just need replacing or is there more to it?
  11. Classic Saab 9-3/GM900 (1994 - 2002)/Conv ( -2003)
    I have a 99 Saab Convertible SE. There is a strange whistling noise coming from the dashboard (not the hood) - sounds like it comes from the SID area. It doesn't occur until speed reaches 70 to 85 mph, depending on the wind (especially strong if there is a cross wind) and it varies in...
  12. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    Just returned from Germany and on the way back I could clearly hear a whistle ( presumably from the turbo )when I used ' kickdown ' to quickly get some speed up ( not the usual background whistle that I usually hear when gently accelerating from low speeds ).It's a Griffin V6 with auto .No smoke...
  13. Saabscene: Performance
    I have a 2004 93 2.2TiD and I am just curious what the whistle noise is everytime I change gear. It sounds kind of dump valve like but diesel turbos don't have them do they? If antone knows what it is, can I make it louder?? Cheers...

    My 2.3FPT Auto seems to have developed a rather loud whistle/whooshing when I'm accelerating hard. It seems to get less when the engine gets hot and I had the exhaust replaced for the last MOT (and the tail pipe shows not one sign of carbon etc). There doesn;t seem to be any obvious leaking...
