Been looking at the various parts places on the web and no one
seems to have springs for an 87 9000t.   Any help on this?

I am thinking if buying a 1999 9-3 LPT SE convertible (UK)
4 speakers are working but the 2 door speakers are not.
Is that a fault or is it just the case that there is wiring and
speaker grilles installed but no speakers as standard?

I am interested in buying a 95 9000 CDE I found, but a trusted mechanic
says that I should run from it...that the engine is garbage.  Yet, it
seems many people like this car.  It's got 100,000 miles on it, and is
only $3,750

I won't give free press to the actual vendor of cell phones but I just
saw this TV ad with some guys in a 900 convertible which seems to have
crashed into, and more importantly, gotten stuck under the back end of a
big rig- which is merrily making it's way down the freeway.

Just bought a 2003 9-3 Aero here in UK but want the Western Europe 2005
DVD to update the Sat Nav.
Saab want to charge almost 300 GBP for one and Navtech say they won't
supply an update. Cheeky question but I refuse to be ripped off:

Just got back from dealer (in US).  Drove an 05 9-3 Linear 5-speed manual.
Ride was nice.  Turbo felt smooth when needed.  However, I felt something
kicking down at my right/accelerator foot.  I couldn't quite see what it
was, as it was dark.  Felt like a loose panel maybe.

Anybody done it cheaper than $245? If yes,where?

Car has salvage title. It was hit on the rear passenger side. engine is
perfect condition as well the body and interior. Book value is $18000 on
KBB. I am asking $11,800 for it. A must see.

I would like to know what year vehicles use the same parts as a 1997
900 SE?
We have a 900 SE Turbo that has been wrecked and wish to fix it.
There are some 1996's and 1998's around for parts, before we go to the

I am new to the Saab world, having guided my daughter, 18 years old,
when purchasing her first car. It now has about 122,000 miles (196,420
km) on it. She enjoys the car very much. We live in the Great Lakes
region in the U.S.

There are timing marks on the CAMS and bearing journal AND on the
spoket and keyway. Wondering which ones to use? They seem to be a one
tooth different.
Any ideas?

My '02 9-5 Aero wagon has very nice-looking wheels, but you can never
see them because they're always covered with grimy black brake dust.  
You can clean them off (a nearly-impossible job because the stuff
sticks like glue) and within a few miles they're black again.

Owner of a '99 9-3 CV here... I recently caused $500+ damage by
changing the engine oil myself.  I was cussing out the dealership the
whole time while trying to remove a hopelessly siezed drainpan bolt.
What should have taken 15 minutes turned into a 6 hour nightmare.  The

Having just carried 40 feet of pvc-tubing (in four 10 foot lengths) with the
9-3's hatch closed, got me wondering what some the biggest/oddest items
hauled in your Saabs may have been?  Love those hatchbacks!
