I replaced the water pump on my 2001 9-3 Aero today. It was a bit of a

on the drive right at it's peak, a dowty seal fell apart as I pushed

I have a 97 9000 Aero and am tired of the sound of the wind whistling around
all the doors and windows. Am interested in replacing the rubber seals
around the doors and the sunroof. Has anyone done it? If so, how hard is the
job and is it likely to solve the problem?

God rest his soul.

I have a '96 SAAB 900S (non-turbo).  There was the "Check Engine" sign
on and I found out that the computer showed error code P0341 (Camshaft

I have a 9-5 and there is an annoying rattle in the a/c grill up on top left

It's time to replace the front brakes on my Saab.  I bought it used
and it always felt that the rotors needed to be turned, but the
problem got worse recently and I've just decided to replace the rotors
along with the pads.

My Saab 900-II only has 2 headrestraints in the rear, one on the right
and one on the left. I'm wondering whether I mislaid the middle one or
whether it wasn't there when I bought the car. The "holes" to add a
third one are there though. Any ideas?

My 96 9000 CS has central locking problems. Some clicking but no action

Recently took my 900SE Turbo convertable to be smogged. The numbers
were great, but he failed me due to a couple of hoses being messed up.

I have a 1995 900S with 150,000km on the clock. Ever since I've had
the car it's had very annoying vibration. This is very evident when
the AC is running and at other times when selecting reverse or back to

fuel gauge the thing starts sputtering like it's running out of fuel or
something.  It does it every time it gets below the 1/4 mark on the tank but
