    Not sure if this is the right place, but figured I'd share my data. Unfortunately my brother recently erased almost the first two years of ownership during which I racked up quite a bit of mileage between my old job and ex-girlfriend taking it on a couple far weekend trips while I was out of...

    Hi Guys, I never know what to write when introducing myself. I have had various Saabs over the years from flat fronted 900's, various 9000's, 900 convertible and now a 2007MY 9-3 Aero Sport Wagon with a couple of minor modifications so far..... I was a member here many years ago and found it...

    93 Sportswagon with 1.9tid 16 valve. Unresolved dpf issue. Checked everything, replaced many parts and all seems well until 300miles of driving and the dreaded warning light comes on. Code for dpf blocked with sub-code pressure sensor. Force regeneration using tech 2 and all is well again, for...

    Hi all, my husband and I are on our 4th Saab, my husband has an Aero 9-3 and I have recently purchased a 9-3 anniversary edition convertible which I absolutely love. Having been Saab lovers for many years I am glad to be part of a Saab community. I guess it's a Saab thing, I can't help it...

    My first car was a 96 V4. Then a 99 GL 2-door, then a 900 4-door GLE 5-speed (proudly proclaimed by the badge at the back), then a 99 EMS 3-door, before a run of non-Saabs. Back after a few years in a 9000i CC, then a 9000 CS Aero. By this time, my wife had started on her succession of 9000...

    Hi all - I have been a Saab owner for over 5 years now, I love the build quality, safety and security of these cars I first bought a Vector Sport Tid 55 plate. First service cost me over £1500 as EGR, DMF, Disks pads and glow plugs all needed changed. It did take the shine off the car a little...

    Hello, Just got my second SAAB, after a 12 year break. Had a 900 about 12 years ago, heating stuck on full and steel flats welded into seats as they had collapsed. Absolutely loved it, even though you had a numb arse and had to hang your head out of the window in summer [like a dog]. Love 4...

    After very nearly 8 years of owning my 93 Aero, I'm after a bit of advice for niggly problems which have just starting happening. My 04 Saab - just gone over 140K miles - has been serviced by Saab every year regardless of the mileage done so its been well looked after. South Wales Saab have just...

    Hi All - Have just bought a 2006 9-3 Aero Convertable and am delighted with it. My first Saab was a blue 95 that I inherited from my father-in-law and ran for the best part of ten years. If I get half as much pleasure out of my Aero then I will be well pleased. Am no mechanic but hope to be...
  10. Classic Saab 9-3/GM900 (1994 - 2002)/Conv ( -2003)
    I am hoping someone will let me know why my steering rack replacements are failing after about 1 year? This is getting very expensive and I am tempted to get rid of it. Surely someone has had the same problem. The previous owner had two fitted within 3 years and I had mine fitted last year...
  11. Saab 9-3 Sedan/Combi/TurboX/AWD(2003+)/Conv(2004+)
    Dear all, Hoping it may be of some help to someone now or in the near future. I explain one problem I've been suffering with my Saab 9-3 Cabrio since I bought it (December 2008). From time to time, in the control panel it showed the message: “Complete soft top operation before driving”...
  12. Saab 9-3 Sedan/Combi/TurboX/AWD(2003+)/Conv(2004+)
    I wanted to thank everyone on here for the passionate and helpful advice over the years. Even today -the day when I am part-exchanging my car- I needed a pointer on how to resolve the "popping gear knob" issue on my 9-3 conv. Once again, this forum was just the ticket. The knob came off during...

    My wife and decided to acquire a 2006 9-3 Saab Aero Convertible. It is a beauty, black paint and top with some 47,000 miles. Years ago we had an orange 99, a cream 900, and a black 900 Turbo. We live in a small, mostly retirement community near Chincoteague Island, Virginia. It's quiet down here...
