9-5 Oil change / Shocks
Published (2009-11-22 23:26:00)
I don't think the bushes are very expensive. Probably not worth the cost of searching. However when the garage did mine, one of the bolts to the body seized and needed drilling and re-tapping.

Petrol Engines
Published (2009-11-22 14:08:00)
I must admit to being an advocate of petrol over diesel, and not just on Saabs. The issues on the old engines were sludge related because the recommended oil was semi synthetic and this caused excessive wear. How much of a rework the new engines are over the old is not something I can't answer but fully synthetic oil is standard now and that makes a big difference to both engine and turbo life. I'm on my third Saab, the first a 9-5...

9-5 Auto Noise on Acceleration
Published (2009-11-22 09:09:00)
Have had the sumped dropped off, cleaned and replaced, whilst a new turbo has been fitted. So far (100 miles in), the noise seems to have gone away so my guess it was turbo related.

Am I going blind?
Published (2009-11-22 19:14:00)
Well I cranked up the n/s headlight 3 full turns and the o/s 2 turns, and no one has flashed me on the way home tonight. Not sure how much better they are, as I was stuck behind several cars on the lanes, but will report back when I get a clear run. Have to say the light still looked dull though. Also noticed that the car in front, an old BMW, was lighting up the hedge to the side much higher than I was, so I suspect it's beam pattern as...

First off there aren't any non-turbo 9-5s, so that means we might be looking at a turbo problem. Valve stem wear is fairly rare compared ot otehr possibilities. How many miles has it done and which version of PCV kit is fitted? Do you ever see smoke from it and if so what colour is it?

Back on topic Called in at Nidd Vale Harrogate and they said they wouldn't do the Stage 1 for less than 700 pounds, but that was me on my own...... Even if 500 pounds I think I will have to settle for 210 hp as I have an expensive hobby....

Joe, Welcome. You might be better to look at the classic 9-3/GM900 forum since this one is for the MY03 onwards SS model. It's likely that the software is a bit different between the two models. Have you contacted a Saab dealer or independent? They should have all of the right computers to help you. Regards, Paul

Welcome, The Vectors are better spec'd in general but a Linear with lots of toys might get there. With a 58 plate you should be clear of the diesel issues that populate this site and you'll have 2 years manufacturers warranty as a cushion. Just enjoy the drive and see what you think, if there is a petrol car there have a drive in that too. Paul

This happened to me twice on different windows, Its a simple fix that a garage will just do for you foc (mine did anyway). The anti pinch needs resetting. Done, if I remember correctly, by disconnecting the door connector with ignition on, reconnecting it then holding the window up button til it beeps.... Hope it works
