  1. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    Hey Guys, I have a 2010 Saab 9-3 2.0T 6spd MT. Recently 2nd gear stopped working. I believe it's the synchro, I want to rebuild or swap the transmission I can't find a rebuild kit anywhere. My first choice would be the rebuild, but if I can't get a kit I will swap it. If I have to swap it will a...
  2. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    ANY IDEAS???? Hello! My 2008 9-3 Aero convertible has 52,000 original miles and I am the original owner. The car has not been driven in stop and go conditions its entire life, so I truly don’t feel I’ve got a bad clutch. I was driving home the other day and it started to become more difficult...

    Howdy everyone, hope you're all having a great day! So I've been struggling to find any replacement to the crappy plastic shifter bushings which have plagued our cars from the factory. I've seen that Eeuro used to sell an aluminum alternative but they seemed to have ceased selling them for...

  8. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    I'm having issues with occasional pop out from 1st gear. It feels like it's not going completely into gear and sometimes I have to shift between neutral and first to get it to properly engage. Around 7 months ago I had the shift linkages replaced and this pop out issue has been happening for...
  9. C900 Workshop
    Hi all, I have a problem with my manual tranny. I was driving pretty normally down the street and when I pulled up to a stop sign and tried to put it into first... nothing... I could not move the shifter at all side to side. It would go into third and fourth(didn't feel like normal though). I'm...

    Hey! My name is Sarah and I have a 2004 Saab 9-3 Aero manual. I adore this car so much. Unfortunately, I signed up for this site so I could get tips on fixing her up (had an accident back in 2014 that just messed up my back end). So you'll be finding me in the repairs topics a lot!!!

  12. NG900 & OG9-3 Workshop
    1999 Saab 9-3 SE 5 Speed 2.0T. Been having an issue starting. Everything turns on, but the starter doesn't engage. I've been able to previously stick the shifter between 4th and R, then apply pressure and the car's starter would begin to kick over and start. I think whatever the issue is has...
  13. NG900 & OG9-3 Workshop
    I was planning on changing my transmission fluid on my 02 93 but when I was looking through my Haynes manual it said to replace the washers on the drain plug, check plug, and fill plug. However, I couldn't find this washer anywhere online to buy and the schematic at thesaabsite didn't even have...
  14. NG900 & OG9-3 Workshop
    I changed out the manual gear box oil in my 01 9-3 vert over the weekend. One of the issues that I read was that there isn't enough clearance in order to get a regular 8mm hex key into the space to open the drain valve. I did some research beforehand and found these short end "stubby" hex keys...

    I am the second owner of a '94 CE, it is a 5-speed turbo. It currently starts and drives fine, but after 5-10 minutes of driving, 1st and 2nd gears become impossible to shift into. I have very little confidence that a local transmission shop would diagnose my issue properly, and that the costs...

  19. 9-5 Workshop
    Yesterday I was driving around and my clutch started feeling weird. The car was still shifting fine even though the clutch felt 'empty'. About 10 minutes afterwards I found that I couldn't shift at all. There is little action from the clutch, just seems like it's not engaging all the way. I...
  20. 9-5 Workshop
    Hi there, I'm trying to research what the differences are in the manual transmissions by year, particularly from earlier model years in comparison with an '03. I understand that between '01 and '02 the upper transmission mount changed in location on both transmission versions of the car. I'm...
