Afternoon All! I have a '97 900 convertible, we've been through a lot together, but this morning she bowled me a bit of a googlie: I popped the catches to get the roof down, and the Close Trunk Lid message popped up (first time ever!). I checked (it was closed) but still no joy and no roof...

Hey! So I was in an accident last December and am just now getting to the point where I can fix my beautiful beast. I used the insurance money to pay off the remaining money on my car and bought a new trunk lid. So my questions: Can anyone direct me to guides or videos on how to remove and...

Hello all, new to the group. Had my Saab almost a year. When I bought it from the dealership last year, it had been advertised as a 2000 9-5 Aero. Well, I ran the vin about two weeks ago and turns out it's a Gary Fisher Edition. Are they really as rare as it seems? I can't find any for sale in...

So the other day i started hearing a strange rattling noise from my 1991 900, she's a four door with a manual transmission. I came to find out that the splash shield on the back left wheel was loose because it had broke free from two of the bolts that held it to the brake caliper. I have removed...

Alright I am officially stumped. While i'm driving in my 2000 9-3 any uneven road surface causes a sound from both sides of the front of the car that sounds like a rattle like a loose bolt or something which turns into a loud knock the bigger the bumps get. It really just makes a racket. My dad...

Hey oh, so I started into replacing the O-Ring on the back of my water pump (a replacement job in itself that I finished about 6 months back) and was feeling quite comfortable. I had located the leak and was going to fix it once and for all. Then I got stuck. When I replaced the water pump...

Hi all, Just doing a few pre-roadtrip checks and found that my PSF is very low. Looking about on the forum it seems that the Texaco TL4634 stuff isn't available any more, and the GM stuff from Saab is either hard to come by or ridiculously expensive. Castrol GT isn't easily available in the UK...
