The particle filter pressure sensors sometimes go wrong.

 

thanks matey, i'll try that (probably cost an arm & a leg) the fooking thing has only been out of warranty 1 month, thanks for the reply, dave,

Take it to the dealer, and complain that it's only been out 1 month, they will almost certainly get Saab to pay.

 

i'll give it a try thanks mate :thumbsup:

 

Well folks, I changed the pressure sensor today but the fault is still there, looks like replacing the cat/particle filter next then off to the auctions with the damn thing, why did gm get involved with saab, i ran them for years in the 80's & 90's without any problems whatsoever, no more saabs for me i'm afraid

 

I agree davkirk, about your comment regarding GM's involvement.
Just bought a two year old 1.9TiD Vector Sport, to replace my old 5 door hatch and I feel underwhelmed, this is the most I have spent on one item apart from my house.
I got into Saabs because of their build quality, difference to everything else on the road, the kudos etc. I have owned everything from 900GL, T16, 9000 Carlson & Aero and two 9-3 hatches.
I feel underwhelmed because this car just doesn't feel like a Saab anymore, I could be sat in anything, doesn't give me a kick like other Saabs have
Also what happened to the internal boot release and radio mute?
I will have to see if it grows on me as I need the economy of the diesel for business use, otherwise it would be a late 9-3 Aero.
