  1. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    I’ve recently had a misfire only on warm start never cold start and I’ve been trying to figure out the problem. I decided to do a fuel psi test today and it confirmed my suspicions. On the warm engine I put the key on engine off and the gauge read about 7 psi this would Definitely seem like the...
  2. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    I have an 07 2.0T SS and I did a fuel pressure test. An immediate test came to 35 PSI. What should normal PSI be at? I’m sure 35 is too low. Fuel filter? Pump? I already replaced the regulator.
  3. NG900 & OG9-3 Workshop
    My '96 900 has been sitting outside for about four years now. I have little to no knowledge about fixing cars but I'm enjoying the challenge. I checked and changed all the fluids in the car, plugged it up to my car's battery, and it started right up. Dash lights and SID were dim or not...
  4. 9-5 Workshop
    Should there be a solid stream of fuel coming from valve when depressed? My 2003 9-5 with the 3.0 died on the highway. Have changed the CPS but no change, still won't start. I can hear fuel pump running for a few seconds when key is turned on. Seems to be OK. When I depress the valve on...
  5. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    Hi everyone, I have a 2006 Saab 9-3 Aero V6 turbo and my check engine light recently came on. The code reader displays P2187 which reads as system too lean at idle. What does this mean? I absolutely have no clue about where to look to see what the problem is and how to go about fixing it. Any...
  6. 9-5 Workshop
    Hard Starting, possible fuel pressure loss Hello all, I'm a pretty amateur diy mechanic, but using these forums and the power of google I've been able to fix everything on my car (2002 Saab 9-5 Aero 2.3L) so far. I've run across an issue lately that I feel I'm just throwing time and money at...
  7. 9-5 Workshop
    Okay, so for what it's worth I am posting an experience I recently had. Car was sluggish and died going up a hill, low gas level. After that it would crank but would not start. Didn't pull DIC to check for spark but was close to doing that. Fearing ruining the DIC kept that from happening...

    2006 9-3 aero I have a check engine light returning a code for a fuel pressure sensor. I know there is 2 in the car if I'm not mistaken. I need to one that in the gas tank. Called the saab dealer and they said it's 505$ for the sensor. Called the GM dealer instead and they gave me the GM part...

  10. NG900 & OG9-3 Workshop
    I am currently experiencing some problems with my 2001 9-3 (base 5spd) 140,000 miles. It is randomly stalling out and not restarting unless you unhook the battery cable to reset the computer. Then it starts just fine. The garage, a small independent saab shop, that it was taken to could not find...
