Hi there, my 2001 Saab 9-5 is one of the last pre-facelifts, equipped with the 4-speed auto trans box. Now I have the opportunity to acquire a 5-spd auto box, but I have the dim feeling that it's not done with that as I do need also the ECU, controllers, instrument cluster, probably the ABS...

Im working on a 2005 SAAB 9-3 2.0T Cabrio. Originally I would drive it and it would run fine until I take it on the highway then it goes into limp home mode, and throws a throttle code. so I replaced the throttle and it did nothing, then I replaced the MAF and it did nothing. then randomly a few...

I have a 2006 9-3 Aero 2.8T, Auto. Recently while doing roughly 75+mph with cruise control on, after a while (could be hours or minutes) it bucks slightly as if pulled out of gear. It pops a gearbox error light with P0606, and goes into limp mode. I can clear the code and restart, and it runs...

Might be relocating my 81 8V turbo sedan soon. It's been out of rego and stored in someone's shed since mid-2014 and has been leaking ATF for a while. I never addressed it since my situation required the car to be dropped out of rego when unemployed. I know the engine still runs, but if it's...

I am looking a 1996 Aero Auto but I was under the impression the 9k Aero had the TD04 yet this one has a T25. Someone shed me some light on this I am confused.

Need all the help you can stomach

Hello, I've found and read the Auto to Manual Conversion PDF doc that's available on the C900 tech forum for performing the swap on a C900 (obviously :roll:). While I understand the fundamentals would be the same to do the swap on a 99, is it as much of a bolt on conversion on the 99 than on...

Having trouble identifying spring code. On the spring there are 3 painted dots, white then orange then silver or gray i think. Attached is a picture of a tag from inside the drivers door. Anyone know which springs I should order?

Firstly Hello All, Secondly: I obviously tested the top speed in the title on a private road. So: I have a new to me, Saab 93 Aero convertible, which is very good. I have retrieved Code P0730 and done the obvious checks: I have corrected wiring where the PO had pinned out the shaft...

I am very heavily searching for an 06 or 07 9-3 aero and have a couple of questions. I test drove an 06 yesterday just to get the feel. I didn't plan on buying this one as it was red and an automatic. But driving with the paddle shifter was surprisingly fun. My main question is, since I have...

Right, someone said I should start my own project thread - so here it is. Last weekend I fulfilled my long-term ambition of buying a Saab 900. It all started back in 1995 when I went round to my friend's house after school and saw his dad had a blue one sitting in the garage. Due to lack of...

Hey guys, I am trying to decide whether to fix this car or sell it but as we have 4 in the family, I thought I would throw it on the forums and see if anyone out there would like such a beauty. If it doesn't sell by March, I will take it off the market, either by fixing it or scrapping it! I...

Hello people, I have been researching all over the net for a while to see if someone has come across my same problem, and while I found descriptions about similar issues, I haven't managed to find anyone reporting exactly the same problem, so here I am asking you for help. Thanks beforehand...

Its a long story but my V6 has auto box issues. The guy who is rebuilding it is having a struggle getting a valve body for the Auto Box. Its a ZF 4HP18. Does anyone know of a source of a spare? I gather that one from a 4cyl 9000 is different. Would one from a Auto 900 or a Carlton 3.0 V6 be...
