  1. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    Car runs rough especially at idle, lost power and occasionally in hot weather engine may stall at low rpm. ECU spits these trouble codes P0300, P0325, P0340 and P1350. What I did so far was to clone the existing ECU to another used ECU using the Trionic CAN flasher but nothing changed. Car has...

    1. BACKGROUND: Hi friends. Finally inherited my 1999 9-3 SE 2.0L Hatchback in midnight blue from my mother. She (the car) ran rough and shaky at idle but otherwise ran fine and had no warning lights. After a short road-trip coming off the highway the engine vibration got quite bad during normal...

    Hey guys, got codes P0340, and P0420 and also an incredibly battery drain again. Problem: Car dies over night.. Question: Can a bad DIC drain my battery? Small overview: Had a drain problem before, it was the Amp and my AC compressor. Bypassed the amp, and replaced my AC compressor, all was...
  4. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    Alright, lets get to this. So, the car is a 08 9-3 with a Z19DT (8v) engine. I have been skimming through a lot of forums with this, and it sort of gives me the idea that it is not the CMS. So, the symptoms: The car started to become difficult to start, cranking for about 5 sec. At the time...

    I have posted a thread before involving the CEL codes P1312, P1334 and P1110 on a 2001 Saab 9-3 SE 2.0, I have fixed the error code for the P1110 but the P1312 and P1334 still remain, (which I know is cylinder misfires). I have looked and looked and many different people have different...

    I have searched and I understand this code pertains to the DIC/ spark plugs. I replaced the DIC from AM Autoparts (Not OEM but built to same quality they say) I also replaced the spark plugs with NGK BCPR7ES-11 and gapped to .035 and torqued plugs to 20lbs. I went to start the car up last...

    So my 2000 Saab 9-3 Hatchback 2.0 Turbo with about 100K miles on it was throwing 3 Engine Codes P0340 P1312 P1334 So, after going through many forums it looked like 99% of people replaced the DIC and spark plugs and the problem was solved. I called the Saab dealership, gave them my VIN number...

    This isn't the first time this code has come up for me, some time ago it occurred. Then it went away. Can't what I did exactly. Now it is back, I plan to check the connections on the DIC. Anyone have experience with using the cheaper black DIC or buyng a parted out red DIC?

    My 96 900 SE turbo will not start. Drove it to a store and it ran fine. Came out of the store and it would crank but not start. Had it towed home. Ran my scan tool and it threw fault code P0340 Crankshaft Sensor Circuit Fault. Is there any way to test the sensor to make sure it is the problem...
