After not using my 1998 Saab 9000 CSE for a few days of 15 Farenheit

'06 9-3 aero touring sport combi ...
can't wait...

Looks like the pesky TCS is acting up on my 93 9000CSET. I made a right
turn, shifted to 2nd and suddenly no power. Engine at 1000rpm but felt like
I was in 5th gear. Had to juggle gas & clutch to get any forward motion.
Pulled over, turned off engine, restarted, everything was ...

Does anyone know if there's any publically available figures on
depreciation of Saabs in the UK?  I know all the lease and finance
companies nust use estimates for calculating their rates and GMV

I have a 2000 SAAB 9-5 wagon that I brought to the dealer last week for
a weird sound it was making.  I was told the serpentine belt needs to

I have a 2000, Saab 9-5 wagon.  The remote feature to lock the doors, and
lock the trunk does not work any more.  I can open the vehicle remotely.
Does anyone know what could be wrong?.  Should I have the vehicle scanned
for trouble codes?

After the battery has been changed.... ('96 - 900) and the radio is
turned on, there's no security code prompt...
This  happened again the new  battery was disconnected.

A coil (I assume that's what it is; it's a black thing shaped like some gross cow's udder) snapped off my red DI cassette. I have another one; the coils appear to be part of a black underpiece that is just screwed into the red top; and that cassette is defective. Is the transfer ...

clunking sounds coming from the front struts.  Later in the day as the ...

Does anyone know if anything special is needed, or should most 3.5" full
range speakers be suitable to replace the front speakers
(dash/windscreen) in a 1999 9-3 convertible?
cheers,

Are these difficult to replace?  Silly question.  How difficult is it
to replace these?  I heard a weird rattling noise in the engine
compartment one day and when I pulled over there was the pully still in
the belt sitting there looking stupid.
