Does my 9-5 Aero ('03, 40K) have a dicky dump valve, I wonder. Under boost there is what I can only describe as a buzzing whooshing sound as the boost builds, which is heard until it is lost in the general clamour above about 3000 rpm. AND I've just noticed a drop-off in boost - it only goes to...

Last year my 9 3 TiD ocasionally emitted some nasty smelling smoke from under the car. Turned out to be the auxiliary fuel heater (which I'm told you don't really need in this country). As the weather is only going to get colder I was thinking about turning it off. Can I a. Just unplug it...

Leave the noisy dump valves to the boy (old boy) racers. If you want to preserve the Q-car element to Saab driving, get Abbott's recirculating dump valve - all of the performance but none of the noise.
