These switches are really stubborn in my 9000 CSE 95. I removed the leather gear shift shroud to try and get under it to push while prying with a plastic tool, and this thing will not budge. I’m afraid of putting more leverage on it, I’m fearful it’d snap.

Trying to diagnose that the back windows won’t go down as well as the sunroof won’t move.

When my motor is warm after 30 minutes drive my oil lamp pops up after only when I brake or drive slower then 20km/h what can be the problem ignore the other lamps :)

Bought from Germany for 600€ and after seeing that the oil pressure light is staying on a bit longer after starting, i decided to remove the sump and check the strainer and holy sh*t… I hope that it wasn’t too late to clean it. Since it was this bad, i assume that the rest of the engine is also this bad. Should i remove the valve cover and clean more? And should i use the engine cleaning stuff you add before an oil change? (1999 Saab 9-5 2.0t auto)

Just added some colored leds to my seat switch’s, what do yall think!?

Recently, I have been posting about my 2003 9-5 Aero wagon that I have owned since new. Being a glutton for punishment and love that only a Saab could provide I have been looking for a solid convertible. Since I could not get over to Teollhatten for their garage sale, I decided to pull the trigger on something more local. I am now the proud owner of a 2007 9-3 Aero Convertible with a 6-speed and only 52k miles… 2 owner car. Picked it up for 6k and I think I did well. Been having a blast going through the gears and the power from the V6 is super smooth. There a couple of minor things to fix- air dam for one- and got check top hydraulic fluid. It did have a CiM change-and recent water pump. Excited to have it for summer and keeping fingers crossed for a few months of non-maintenance!

I have a 07 9-3 Sportcombi with 178k miles that I absolutely love, however I came across a Viggen on fb marketplace and hes willing to do a trade and seems super interested.

His car is a 02 9-3 with 230k

Pros:

-Viggen (duh)

-Basically free, just have to swap cars

Cons:

-I love the space I have in my wagon to be able to transport stuff and go car camping

-Don't know how to drive a manual but im sure I can learn

Pics attached. Let me know what you guys think

So I have had my Saab 9-3 Aero TTID for around 7 years and have had to work on the car on and off as you do with older cars but now it's paid off as it has now finally become a high mileage hero. Glad to have kept a car on the road that others would have scrapped with more plans to restore her to her former glory (of course with some added modifications to solve her up!).

I don’t know what it is but there’s just something special about a og9-3 interior (obviously have to post an outside shot too). 2000 viggen with way too many upgrades to list.
