Hello

My 9000CSE has just started having this fault, when I have the engine at
idle it sits at about 1200RPM then goes up to 2000RPM then after a couple of
seconds drops back to about 900RPM then repeats this going up and down after
a couple of seconds. I had it serviced a week ago as the check engine light
came on so I took it to the garage and they serviced it but now a week later
it has got this fault, I don't know what is making it happen and I don't
know if something maybe the garage did has caused this? I don't want to take
it back to them and tell them they hadn't serviced it correctly if they
haven't caused it.

Try cleaning the IAC valve, how-to available on www.saab9000.com.

Test drove a '94 9000 Aero with 130,000 Km on the clock  today; that started
doing the self revving bit during the test drive...surprise, surprise...I
didn't buy it! Not that I was that impressed anyway...my old 9000 2.0 FPT
would see this thing off VERY comfortably....no guts at all. (more like
125bhp than 225). Even in flat out in 2nd gear it was not even exciting,
never mind scary!

Pity, I wanted it to be a good one  :-{
