  1. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    I've gotten a couple of fault codes regarding the EGR valve (the last one was EGR Flow). I am trying to take it off and clean it. The manifold also looks like it needs cleaning, is it worth it to take off the manifold too? I would also appreciate detailed steps on how to remove the vacuum lines...
  2. 9-5 Workshop
    Hey guys, I’m new to the community but I have a 2004 saab 9-5 aero 2.3t, at low speeds going around 1200-2000rpm the car stutters and shakes. I am throwing a mass airflow sensor code, but after some research I’ve seen it could be my egr, no idea if I even have a egr. All I have done to my car is...
  3. 9-5 Workshop
    Hi all, I have this car, and over the years there has been an error that nobody seems to be able to fix. Four (!) garages have tried, I have spent a lot of money trying to remedy this, but now I am very close to giving up. The thing is, the car goes into limp mode. Error messages are P0400...

    Hey folks, I'm looking at 9-3 in a few days which is labeled as a mechanic's special. It's been taken to two dealerships and two indies for various bits. The car has had a pretty good service record but it looks like it failed emissions because of high NO x. The coolant system has been...

    Hiya, My car went into limp mode (in a particularly terrifying crossing on road), AA came out and checked it over. Said that the EGR valve was one of the points up on diagnostic. Reset it and nothing came back up. Went to the SAAB garage and they said that there was something wrong with the...

    CAR 2008 9-3 Aero TTiD Sports Sedan Manual 82,000 Km (Approx 51,000Mi) ISSUE Bought the car about 2 years ago and since then the time and effort it seems to take to get the car to start from cold is getting worse. Originally it was not too bad and I just wrote it off as being a diesel thing, as...
  7. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    I am aware that newer cars may not have EGR valves and so far its very difficult to try and find out if the 2005 9-3 2.0t Linear fits into that category; would anyone happen to know the EGR valve configuration, if there even is an EGR valve installed in this vehicle?

    Hi guys, I’ve got a 2005 Saab 93 1.9 TD 150 BHP and I seem to have developed a quite major problem with my Saab that I am unable to narrow down after trying. Just a bit of history for you. I’ve had numerous problems in the past with the usual culprit the EGR Valve! I don’t tend to do many...

    Hi everyone, whilst cleaning the EGR valve on my 2.2 TiD today I noticed that a vacuum pipe that runs close by was worn through. The pipe goes to a diaphragm type valve that is above the EGR and I was wondering what this valve does and where does the pipe run to/from? I have been having lots...
