Thread: Living with the Hirsch Aero

http://www.saab9-5.com/faq_acc.htm

I reckon you could get away with fitting plain flat ones to the wheel arch and sill covers. I did this for the rears on my Aero but in the end didn't bother on the front because the covers seem to do a reasonable job of preventing most of the splash etc.

"it's when you apply the power again after an overrun, or idle period.(Like when changing gear)" Think that sums up whats happening to mine, If it doesnt effect the emisions then i'l soldier on till MOT Thanks Neil

QUOTE(CitTone @ 2 Dec 2009, 13:28 ) I have just got some Bosch wipers off ebay, (£9 the pair, no spoilers) and, not only do they not skip like my old ones (with spoilers), they appear to have cured the problem I had with the rain-repellent coating on my screen! Either they've scraped the stuff off, or the problem was actually with the wiper blades all along! So come on, don't tease us, give us a...

Oh I hate the word planted It reminds me too much of the garden or heavy machinery..............dum dee dum - ok I'll go back to the home. Have PM'd you Craig.

51 plate but it says MY02 on the plate the other side of the engine bay. Thanks for looking into this for me!

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.

Cheers fellas , it just seems daft that a car company like Saab who used to build cars for the extreme conditions in Sweden don't make flaps for 1 of there cars , my old 900 classic even has flaps in front of the rear wheels to reduce spray , ah well another GM cutback I guess !!

The wipers arrived the day after I bought them which is excellent service. Well packaged, etc. Genuine GM part and were also easy to fit (and believe me it has to be easy for me to do it!). Well done to Droitwich Garage, Saab dealers in Worcs.

IIRC when I was seeing a girl from ‘buzzard years ago, I went to one your way for bits for her knackered Golf… it was called LCP or LCS or something like that.
