| Odd intermitent squeaky noise.... Lionel Hutz 20:01:45 |
| |
Occasionally my car squeaks while I am driving. Turning the wheel
slightly left or right, as well as depressing the brake slightly,
brings the noise to a halt. Any ideas????

| Possible fuel pump problems Roo 22:29:39 |
| | Hi Guys,
I have a '93 Saab 9000. A few weeks ago I had a tame mechanic fit a 'a
good as new' fuel pump for me. All the while I keep the tank topped up
there's no problem. However, it's when the fuel level drops below 1/2 a
tank is when the problem starts. Normal driving is fine, but when I
ease off the throttle to turn, slow down etc. the engine falters almost
to stand still as I apply the throttle. What ever answers you have will
be much appreciated, especially if they involve NOT forking out for
another pump.
Thankyou,
ROO

| Wiring Smoked From Inside Dashboard. Here's what Happened.. Markc@Merr.Com 03:12:47 |
| | Because of what I think was bad gas or a clogged fuel filter I was
having problems with the engine stalling and dying (I just bought the
car so I don't know the history of it but it had been sitting for at
least a year or more). It would start and idle (sometimes it would not
idle. very erratic) but then die if I tried to drive it (especially up
hills). What happened was a that I panicked and kept on trying to start
it (so I could get it home just a few blocks away) but then it
overheated the wiring to the starter (what else could it be?). I was
getting smoke coming from inside the dash and fortunately the car
didn't start on fire. What I need to know is where to look for the
section of wiring where it most likely overheated. I was out taking the
dash apart today but I'll have to get a steering wheel puller. From
what I can see so far when looking inside the dash from the top &
underneath I can find no obvious melted wiring sections. While I was
trying to start my car, someone from a nearby house said that they saw
small flames underneath my car so I'm thinking that too much gas was
getting down into the system (maybe the fuel pressure regulator is
bad?). At this point I want to first figure out & replace the burned
wiring before I troubleshoot the starting problem. Any help with this
is greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Mark

I have updated my photo galleries. They are now better organized and laid
out. I am still working on the Saab 9-x Gallery, but the Aero-X, 9-3x and my
own Car all are finished. I added jumpstations to each page and have about
30 MB of pix.
Be sure to sign the guest book.

| More Sonett return rumours ... Paul Halliday 00:35:00 |
| | Hot on the heels of the Aero X, rumours are that GM are to release a sports
cars. I know these rumours have been around for some time, essentially for a
car based on the Saturn, but now with the Aero X, perhaps SAAB have an ace
up their sleeve?

Not true, at least for the 2004. My 9-3 has the Xenons and I've the
daytime running lights off since the 30-day check up.

| difference in ride/power 9-3 Ginny Wong 18:11:08 |
| | I have year 2000, 93 -low pressure autobox and love it. Goes like stink when
called to perform! Looking for newer 93, perhaps the anniversary edition
with premium upgrades.
Is it worth it?
What are SAAB peoples opinions on the differences between low and high
pressure turbo engines? Gas needs to be a better grade in the high pressure
but is the extra expense worth a more powerful turbo engine?
Thanks, . . . .Gin
'83 900 Turbo -still going
'88 9000 auto -dead gear box but shows well.
'00 93 low pressure Turbo -automatic daily driver
Next car . . .a '93 convertible!!

| Re: P0300 and P0340 (Cam shaft position Sensor) Saab 93 (1999) Guest 22:53:42 |
| | Hi,
I think I have my problem solved. I went to a dealer to get the
stuff diagonized. They told me I need to replace the spark plugs and
the DI cassette.
I bought the spark plugs and replaced them myself and ordered the DI
cassette from the
http://www.eeuroparts.com/home.aspx. Replaced the parts myself and
reset the check engine light.
Have not seen the light come back on after that.
This might help someone with the same problem.

| Any pipe smoking 9.5 drivers in the house? Michael Hudson 18:22:41 |
| | My '02 9.5 has no ash tray and is not exactly awash with handy spots to
rest a partially smokedand possibly still burning pipe of tobacco. The
little change/glasses cubby hole thingy is too small to accept a pipe
and I'm not sure where I could safely/conveniently/aesthetically mount
a pipe holder. Would anyone with 9.5 pipe smoking experience care to
share their thoughts and/or solutions?
Thanks very much,

| Wiindscreen washer stuck Wido van Krieken 17:05:22 |
| | My left windscreen washer did not spray fluid.
The problem was the little plastic T-part under the hood.
After removing this part and connecting the hose directly to the spray-head
it works fine again.
What is the function of the plastic T-part in the hose which I now removed?

| re currency Niks 00:38:47 |
| | Hi,
I have a small query
Actually there is an option like Foriegn travel card which could be
loaded with the currency and then you could use it to withdraw money
from Visa ATMs world wide. Suppose i have a card loaded with Euros and
i wan't to with draw money from a VISA ATM in Sweden . Then what 'cross
border currency conversion rate ' be charged for each transaction.
Cross border currency conversion rate: It is the exchange rate applied
by VISA for processing cross border transactions where the billing
currency is different from the card currency.
Hope i have made it clear now

| Radiator Fan is killing my battery! Will Frazier 06:35:56 |
| | Hey everyone. I have a 1988 Saab 9000. After purchasing the vehicle
from the previous owner, I noticed that the radiator fan would stay on
after the car had shut off (i'm not sure if this is normal). some
months later, the fan switch went bad, and i replaced it. After
replacing the fan switch, I began to pay more attention to the fan,
seeing that it now switches on whenever the car is started, regardless
of how cold the engine is, and it will stay on for 10 or so minutes,
regardless of how long the engine is running. This has been causing my
battery to go dead whenever i turn the car on for a short period. I
could really use some advice on this one. Could I have possibly hooked
the fan switch up wrong?
