GM parts direct has the brake vacuum hose 55556698 for $25. They call it a Venturi.

 

had misfire and high idle codes recently, found this part to be broken.

thanks for the verified p/n. gonna try picking it up from a local gm dealer to avoid the frickin $13 shipping/handling fee from GMPD.

 

Good Source for Purge Valve

I found this place to have a bunch of parts that I needed. Good prices and SAAB OEM.


Here is the link to the purge valve:Cost is $33

I ordered the part. Waiting for it to come in.

Good Luck all!

 

This is a very common part and is still used on many new GM cars today. You can get them at rockauto for $20 which is what I did and its been fine for over a year. Since this part is so cheap to buy I would suggest you replace it whenever you are changing spark plugs or rear coils on the V6 since its such a pain to get in there and you have to remove it anyway to get to the plugs.

 

Hello All,

I successfully changed my purge valve thanks to Ferms. I used the part from EEuroParts, but it turns out it was the same part as the GM one, bracket and all. It does come with a year warranty though.

One tip I would give is to actually remove the bracket in step 8. It is not necessary, but makes removing the hose with the black connector and swapping the valves much easier. Here are some picks of the bracket with new valve:

Thanks everyone!

 

Brake boost check valve

Just thought it worthwhile to post this current link to a replacement brake booster vacuum check valve line as there has been discussion about this part as well (Step 5 in removal of EVAP Purge Valve). Appears some people just buy a generic check valve and replacing the OEM one. Others cite the need to replace the entire assembly as the rubber line gets hard and cracks as well;

9-3 Aero intake manifold air pressure

Hey guys, I've just replaced all my spark plugs and ignition coils on my 2006 9-3 Aero SportCombi but upon removing the intake manifold to access the coils I found a sensor not plugged anywhere, just loose. I was wondering if anyone could tell me where this goes. I've looked everywhere to see where the wire could reach and couldn't find an specific location. It doesn't seem to affect the performance and neither the CEL came on so far. I'm assuming I've been driving with this thing not plugged for a while. Am I losing performance because of it and what is the function of this sensor? I'm attaching a picture here so you can see what sensor I'm talking about! Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

 

Atmospheric pressure sensor

It's an atmospheric pressure sensor, bolts to the bracket the cable tray for the ECM loom goes on....there would be a spare M6 hole on that bracket
the o ring doesn't seal against anything

Can you guys repost the pics for this process? I am going to do this tomorrow and dont want to break anything. TIA!

 

Hi guys,
I've been experience a rough idle and a sort of shuttering when quickly accelerating (like when passing someone on the highway). I'm getting the P0446 code, and it's saying something about the engine running lean at idle. Will replacing the purge valve fix this issue?

As an aside, I'd say probably 3 out of the last 5 times I've gotten gas, I have trouble getting the car to start right away, but eventually does after a couple tries and has no problem starting any other time. Any idea what that's about?

 

Yes mate, replace the purge valve, thats your problem. Get them cheap from rockauto. Good luck

 

Just finished this on 2007 93 aero, took me awhile to figure things out, since pics are gone, but got it done, light on dash went away. The blue button, grey button references and the vacuum hose with the black tab matching the one near the MAF by the radiator practice was spot on.

 

resurrecting an old thread as I just got the P0496 code.
All the pics in this thread are gone. How easy/difficult is it to replace the purge valve on an 06 Aero Convertible?
Would this be causing any performance issues?

 

In my case vehicle was hard to start after filling up, believe it took me about an hour to figure it out, used google images for 2007 evap purge valve and YouTube I believe, just take your time when disconnecting and reconnecting.

 

Can anyone confirm this is the right part for a 2006 Aero

Got the part, but damn, couldn't get the old one off. I was afraid of breaking something else. Any advice?

 

Ferms_93_2.8T any way those pictures can be reloaded?

 

it's over 2yrs since Ferms has signed in..

 

Could some please post a, if not some pictures of this thing on a 9-3 2006 Aero?

 

Update the pictures?

 

Diagrams are from the WIS - you really need to down load this maintenance manual. The EVAP canister purge valve is on the back of the V6 left side. Follow earlier instructions in second post . You have to get some stuff out of the way. The part you are replacing is #10.

 

I have it but the desktop does not have it yet. I reinstalled the wise on the older laptop.

 

I am having issues with my 2007 Saab 9-3 Aero cranking over for long periods of times only after refueling completely. Also noticed when trying to accelerate up a hill or to pass a car my car stutters to go. This has to do with the EVAP Purge Valve still correct? I am going to get the part from a parts store, Oriely’s has it listed for $41.99 with a part #CP569. Is this the part I need?

 

Bump because im having issues with P0443, already changed the valve but that didnt help. Anything else i can do?

Cheers

 

Check wiring between UEC, purge valve and ECU.
If this is also OK, you have bad ECU.
