I got this dreadful code the other day on my Saab 9-3 2.0T from 2008. I've been opting to do all repairs for my car myself typically as much as I can ever since I got this darling and now I've hit this snag that I see is dreaded but not really documented on how its been fixed on these forums...

Hello. I am new to Saab Central. I have a 2002 Saab 9-3 SE Turbo Convertible. It is a car that is not used on a regular bases as it has had a lot of reliability issues over the last couple of years. But recently, I have been trying to get it back on the road. Within the last 30 days, I had a...

So the wires leading to the throttle position sensor have corroded to the point that I can't even solder the wires reliably. The three prong plug connecting to the throttle position sensor works fine but the wires need to be replaced or fixed some how. The attached picture shows where the...

The other day my check engine light came on with my 1996 Saab 9000 CS and gave me the P0121 code. From time to time there will be a bit of a delay when I am stopped and go to give it the gas. It kind of bogs down and then all of a sudden its like full throttle. Does that just mean its the...

Hello, I am new here and wanted some help badly. I am not that technically skilled, but I need to have some idea what is going on to get it fixed and not waste money. I bought a 2006 93 2.0T sportcombi a few months ago and its been nothing but trouble since. First the fuel pump needed...

...so after figuring out that it was NOT the head gasket and getting it put back together, it fired right up. There's a video of it starting and idling on my facebook, but it's not public unfortunately. It idles great, 850-900 RPM (guessing, sorry I'm used to a Honda tach where every 100 RPMs...

I seem to be having issue with acceleration that is getting worse 2007 93 2.0T manual, 6-sd, anniversary ed. 60k had the car for 2 months It used to be that the accelerator wasn't responding right away, almost as if there was a half second delay before the car would get-up and go (oh, and only...

Running great until two days ago. Slowly getting worse. Runs very rough at idle and first gear, hesitates, surges in second. I did get the cassette at the junk yard, bad luck? Could it possibly be something else? air idle control? Throttle position sensor? crank position sensor...

The car was running perfect for two days, Now running real rough, bogs, hit gas and rpms go up, gas bogs. Could I have gotten a bad one? junkyard. :cry: crank position sensor? throttle position sensor? dirty evap valvev dirty air idle control. first Saab over my head...

It was going into my indy dealer tomorrow to get new tires mounted anyway, so I'll have them check it, but my 2000 Viggen lit the CEL while in the drive-through line at idle when picking up lunch today. The idle was a bit rough, so while in neutral I went to blip the throttle and nothing...

a couple weeks ago my car started acting up. it would idle just fine but could not accelerate or rev the engine at all. i found that the manual throttle cable was moved into the fully open position and discovered it was caused by a stuck bleeder valve. i then unpluged it so that i could drive...

It's been ages since I posted any update to the "jerky low-end throttle response" drivability problem I've been having with my '06 9-3SS. To summarize, when I let the throttle out gradually, there is frequently (but not always) a total instantaneous slamming-shut of the throttle plate before...

Hello everyone!!! I'm trying to replace the throttle position sensor on my 93 9k aero after my check engine light came on indicating that it was out. Well I have a new sensor in hand but can not for the life of me find where the sensor belongs. Can anyone help me locate this sensor? Thanks

Hi all. I'm new to this forum. I've got a 9000 with turbo, a 93 CDE. It has several issues. First is the TCU light is on, and I'm in limp home--permanently. Now, the TCU light sort of hesitates when the car starts--the light only glows a little bit, then strengthens and becomes strong...
