  1. 9-5 Workshop
    Hello all, I’ve recently been unable to start my 2004 9-5 while the engine was still hot. The engine cranked (not suspecting neutral safety switch). I know this typically points to a bad CPS, but it’s already been replaced with a Bosch unit 6 months ago. The no-start issue propagated shortly...
  2. NG900 & OG9-3 Workshop
    For the last week or so my car (‘01 with about 57k miles on it) has been doing something where it feels like it is misfiring when at highway speeds-at first I thought it was related to the fact that my abs module was on the way out, but I replaced that, and while that fixed a host of other...

    2002 9-3 SE Hi there, I've been dealing with a no start when hot issue. Replaced CPS and swapped DIC but issue remains. I got it to start up while hot after disconnecting the coolant temp sensor, so I also replaced that. Car seems to run normally but sometimes after turning off when hot it...
  4. NG900 & OG9-3 Workshop
    This is my first post, I’ve seen some similar stuff on here but not to a T. My main problem started a couple months ago and is getting increasingly worse to the point the car is cutting off 4+ times on my drive to work. It seems to be competently random unless I push the accelerator too quickly...
  5. 9-5 Workshop
    Hi Guys my 2002 Saab 2.0t lost power during 1 mile then stopped and won't start again. I read in the forum that the crankshaft postion could be a good reason for this failure and the way to check it is to see of the RPM moves. I saw a YouTube someone starting with broken CPS and saw his RPM...

  6. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    Hi there, Last week commuting I noticed my passenger DIY LED DRL was flickering when going over road bumps in the early morning, I chalked it up to shoddy wiring or poor part quality. Forgot to work on it, same thing the morning after - may or may not be related to the current issue at hand...

  8. 9-5 Workshop
    New CPS, new fuel pump (<1000km replaced), tried two batteries (one known good one) and two DI cassettes. 290k (km) on the odometer. Cranks just fine, just doesn't start. Fuel pressure should be fine, however I'm checking it properly tomorrow. The wiring leading up to the CPS seems to be...
  9. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    2003 9-3 Linear here. I've been having this issue for a few weeks now with it being rather intermittent and random, but at some points when I go to start the car, the engine with crank and crank but no start. I don't have any CEL/MILs, so I'm at a bit of a loss as to what would cause this...
  10. NG900 & OG9-3 Workshop
    Morning all, I drive a 2000 9-3. Yesterday while on the highway I started getting a jerking motion as I would accelerate like power would come and go. Right before I broke down I lost my rear light and the blinkers stopped working. As I pulled into my parking space the car stalled out...
  11. 9-5 Workshop
    Hi everyone! Yesterday I bought my first Saab, a Saab 9-5 2.0t from 2006 (facelift). When I bought it yesterday everything worked as it should. But today I took the car on a long journey, around 300km (185mi). When I got home from the journey, I waited for around 1 hour before I was gonna drive...
  12. 9-5 Workshop
    I have a 2002 9-5 Aero wagon with 97,000 mi. For the last few of weeks I've been experiencing an intermittent no start. The engine will still turn over and the battery is strong. There are no check engine lights. At first I thought it was DIC related. Being a good Saab owner, I carry a spare in...
  13. 9-5 Workshop
    Hi everyone, Car shut off while driving multiple times on my way home. Both times I replaced the DIC on the side of the road with two spares I had and was able to make it the rest of the way. Since then it's had trouble starting. Will crank but won't start. Tried replacing CPS, spark plugs...
  14. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    Got a weird issue going on. And after 2 days of working on it I'm turning to Saab Central once again. Prior to this issue the car had the following CEL codes: P0301 P0245 (Turbo Wastegate Solenoid A low) P0201 (injector circuit/open cyl 1) P0442 (existing since forever ago) Car was running...
  15. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    Had my 2006 9-3 estate with the 2.8t V6 (auto) for about two weeks now and had no major issues so far (apart from a bit of coolant escaping but was topped back up) On Sunday afternoon I drove less than a mile when the car started to judder quite violently at low rpm then just died, after...
  16. Parts for Sale/Wanted - North America
    Hi: I'm looking to buy the bracket that holds the two O2 sensors and the CPS sensor wiring connectors on the 2002 and on 9-5. It mounts near the thermostat housing. My car is missing this part and the connectors are just loose in the engine bay. I can't find a part number for this thing...
