What if anything can people recommend I do to troubleshoot my 93 aero cab as cheap as possible? For some time it has driven in first and second like I'm towing a caravan. A Nissan micra could take me off the line. I've long suspected boost leak, but I have a have a obd2 and I have no related...

Hi Guys. I am new to Saab and just bought a 2008 9-3 Tid Combi. The car is absolutely wonderful and drives really well. Except when I try to put diesel in at the pump. It will take me 10 minutes to fill 10 litres. The fuel gauge is working ok. It seems like the pump keeps shutting off. I have...

Hey! I just bought a saab 9-5 2.0t 2005 mod to see if i can get it back on the road again. The car starts and runs fine, but when i go to accelerate is super slow. It feels like it has no power at all. It has no lamps in the dash and it has no problem getting up to 100 kph, but it takes forever...

Hello all, I recently became the excited new owner of a sleek 2008 Saab 9-5 in Titan Grey, an amazing upgrade from the 2004 9-5 Linear I was sporting before. Unfortunately, taking ownership of this car has caused me to join the "9-5 slow acceleration/low boost" club. Here's the issue: The A/C...

Hello again guys, Fixed my previous problem with the dreaded gearbox malfunction turning out to be a Crankshaft Position Sensor but still have a coolant leak even after the water pump had been replaced. Very weird one guys, the coolant tank smells if petrol! gas to you Americans :) but that...

Hi all, I've had a search through the forums but couldn't find anything that directly applies to the problem I've got with my Mum's car. It's an '06 9-5, 2.3t. Recently, it's had a problem where it will intermittently become very sluggish, to the point where it's dangerous when pulling out...

I have a 1999 9-3 with 177k on it. After having to get a jump start my Saab is slow to start. It has to crack several times before actually starting up. Any ideas? Could it be the crank position sensor going bad?

A little history first - when I bought my 'vert, the speedo needle was stuck behind that little pin that should normally keep it at zero when stopped. It looked like the tip of the needle had broken off (I found it at the bottom of the instrument cluster) but just enough of the needle was there...
