Sorry to spam your group.  Sold my old Saab 900 a couple weeks ago after 20
years and am selling all of my new old stock parts on ebay for dirt cheap
and no reserve.  http://motors.search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZringsabell
item 8068062409 and see other items.

Recently purchased a used 2000 9-5 in Canada.
Engine light kept coming on which and a module has been replaced under
warranty.
Also probably 70% of the time I start the car I get a "service theft

It's making a wheezing noise at tickover, cant hear it at higher revs.
I'm sure it's the water pump.
A genuine Saab part is going to cost £80+, whereas a pattern part from
Elkparts or partsforsaabs is around £25.

Am I nuts?
I owned a Red 1988 Turbo 900 for a little less than a year back when it was
new. I loved that car, thought it was the coolest thing on the planet. But
it was more than I could sensibly afford at the time and I was lucky to sell

Well, my mom lost one of her key/remotes for her 1999 9-5, the dealer
wants $360 to replace the key, seems a little high, do I have any
other options or places to get the key?

I have a 1995 9000 Aero. So this means alloy wheels. One tyre has
suddenly gone completely flat twice lately but each time re-inflating it
has lasted for several weeks. So it stays fully inflated for about three
weeks then suddenly goes down fast.Any ideas why this might happen?

Hello Group,
Has anyone seen the correct procedure on a website for removing the rear
door skins on a 1996 SAAB 9000 CS ?
Thank-you,

The alternator pulley seems to be going a bit noisy on me. I'm assuming
there's a bearing somewhere in there. Can I change just that, or should
I go for the rebuilt alternator unit?
I looked at a few rebuilt alternators on the web, and they don't seem to

I was given a 9-2x 2.5 non-turbo while my car is in the shop.  I like
the ride and handling, but the interior is cheap and the doors seem very
flimsy.  The engine is very touchy, hard to drive smoothly.  Not worth
the msrp in my opinion!

I posted a listing a couple of weeks ago about my drivers seat not
tilting forward.  A couple of responses later a nd a discussion with a
local dealer points to the cable inside being twisted or loose? The
dealer recommends stripping the seat down to untangle.  Now they are

My 9000 CS LPT US model 95 has developed a strange problem:
Approximately every other time I switch the ignition off, the low beams
don't turn off. If I then attempt to turn them off manually with the light
switch, they still don't go off.

It's time to replace my Pirelli PZero Rosso tires (225/45-R17 94W XL).  
I'd like to get something cheaper and with a better tread-life.  I don't
drive hard or even particularly fast, so I don't really need an
"ultra-high performance" tire.
