I just got my car aligned and immediately I noticed it was pulling to the left. If I let go while steering wheel is straight it will turn to the left. If I let go when steering wheel is in the position where the car goes straight but steering wheel is crooked it will continue to go straight...

I just recently purchased a set of MSW 18' rims that have a bolt pattern of 5x112 but my 2007 Saab 9-3 bolt pattern is 5X110. I was able to mount the rims on the vehicle without any issues. However, when i go past 45-50 mph (72-80 km/ph) my car will start shaking a little. My wheels on the rims...

Hello, I have a 2005 9-3 arc. It loves to chew right through the inside of tires. Whenever I put a new set on the techs come up with excuses as to why they can't give me a 4 wheel alignment. Yesterday the tech said the eccentric rear bolts are frozen and if I replace those with new ones they...

Just bought a 2003 9-5 Aero sedan w/ about 116k on the odo. Really nice car with a few issues, but the price was right. I took it to a Saab specialist shop before the sale to get it checked out, and they quoted me some prices that seem kind of crazy, but then again, I don't know the ins and...

Over the last couple weeks I've replaced control arms, strut inserts, and tie rod ends as well as gotten new (used) front tires along with an alignment from Big O. Here's a timeline: Phase 1: Before replacing any hardware or tires - pulls to the right a bit Phase 2: After replacing control...

So I took my 2005 Saab 9-3 to get new tires and alignment done, however the guy said he wouldn't do the alignment because it needs all these parts Drivers side axel Cool springs Control arm, front driver side Front struts Sway bar link Sway bar bushings What parts are the ones I should get so...

Had an alignment done, drives better but still pulls to the right. Is the camber off enough to cause this? I realize it still might pull even with the camber bolt if the tires have uneven wear. Top is before, bottom is after alignment. Thanks.

I have a slight pull in my 93 a convertible to the right and I know it needs to be aligned. However I am also in need of some new suspension bushings in the front and rear because there's some squeaks and pops. Should I get the aligned now or should I wait until after I do the suspension work...

Is there any chance replacing an axle can put the car out of alignment? To replace the passenger side front axle on my 1994 900S, taking off the sway bar bolt and the rear control arm bolt (I wasn't able to break the front control arm bolt - the one just behind the ball joint). I used a hammer...

I am told by a trusted alignment shop that the car gets aligned, and after a few seconds, the numbers on the computer start to change. They aligned it three times and three times, it did this. They questioned the integrity of the computer, but this issue only happened with my vehicle. History...

Hi, First I'm mechanically challenged so hopefully this question isn't completely stupid..:D On my 2008 SC the steering wheel is tilted to the right when driving straight. Someone mentioned to me that there is some adjustment under the car that can make it straight? All I know is that the car...

I am planning on replacing my inner and outer tie rods this weekend. One driver side is loose between at the adjustment nut which requires a new inner and outer, plus a new nut. The passenger is seized up. The bushing end looks easy however I am not sure what I am in for on the Inner rod...

As I have read with the older saabs, the clutch alignment tool is a pain in the *** to acquire. Now, what about for our sport saloons? I have an 06b 2.0 5sp I am doing the clutch on this weekend but I CANNOT find the tool. I would rather not listen to some ideas I have read i.e. a 1/2 in metal...

Hey Everyone, I have an '01 9-3 Convertible and I just had 2 new front tires and a 4-wheel alignment done. It was pulling bad to the right before and the front passenger side tire was worn to the cords on the inside of the tread but looked new on the outside. Here is a link to the printout...

Hello Everyone! I recently finished a 6 month journey of replacing many suspension components (listed here) including new Koni Sport (yellow) and Vogtland springs. After alignment, they weren't able to get rid of a leftward pull that persisted throughout all the changes I've made. They...
