I've been asked to replace the standard dash fascia on a '99 convertible
with an OEM wooden version. from a breakers. Can anyone tell me if this is a
real PITA or an easy job?
TIA

We were so thrilled to open our inbox and find a wagon question waiting for us. With very few automakers venturing into wagon terrain these days, it gives us a chance to flex our underutilized wagon-knowledge muscle. In this case,...

ack.  The road salt has eaten my C900 ragtop and it's time to reload with
another convertible. I live in Northeast Ohio USA.  Anyone have a suggestion
for a replacement?  I've looked at NG 900's and they look decidedly
effeminate.  I like the looks of the TT's, but they're not ...

I have a 2000 95 SE (V6) - it's what we in the states would call a station
wagon.  Auto has 90k miles.  I am original owner, all periodic maintenance
done at the dealer.
I just had the 90k mile service performed.

I just bought my first Saab - '08 9-3 2.0 sedan (auto, although I'd
prefer manual). Love the handling, interior space (size considered)
and the workmanship, for most part, seems very good (a bit too much of
plain black plastic in the middle of dashboard, looks cheap compared

Saab has embraced E85 as an alternative fuel in Europe as a way to offer good performance and relatively good emissions using small turbocharged engines. Because ethanol has a higher octane rating than gasoline, boost pressure can be raised, allowing for a higher specific power ...

I want to buy a 2003 9-5 Aero. The vehicle started very rough and it
stalled. I started it again and needed to hold my foot on the gas pedal
in order to keep it running. What may be the problem?

I have a 2005 9-3 Linear and the badge on the vehicle's trunk has been
damaged and is now off the car. Is this bad for the vehicle? I notice
two holes where the badge fits in, but I can't determine if inside these
holes the car may be susceptible to damage from moisture or the like?

Proud owner of a 9-5, but i have a couple of questions relating to the "blipper"
Just today i started the car, and it went through the usual "Test Brake Lights" spiel, and i was expecting the milage left til empty
to come up.
But instead of THAT, i got a "Change Key Battery" ...

woke up to find some degenerate has snapped off my rear wiper leaving me
with just the bolt...bastards.
Has anyone replaced this on an w reg 9-3 HOT aero? I'm assuming it's cheaper
to get a second hand arm and a new blade?

I have a '94 Turbo Convertible and the four window switches do
not work all the time.  It seems if you play with them or keep hitting them,
they will down the windows and sometimes they won't.  Is there, perhaps,
some way of cleaning the contacts?  The motors seem to be good but I ...

A 1993 Lplate that was on Ebay. My bid went in to late and I missed it.
But I contacted the seller and explained and said if the winner backs
out I'll match it.
He is emigrating to Australia on Saturday and needs to shift it.

My 1993 9000 cse 2.0 lpt has stated not firing on all cylinders immediately
after a starting in the morning. It takes about a mile to get it going
normally. DI replaced just one month ago, spark plugs and air filter
replaced only 4 months ago. So what could be the problem?

Without any evident cause, my rear windshield wiper arm stopped
working and the arm just sort of flops around.  I thought that
jiggling it by hand might reengage it, but it had no effect.  Does
anyone know if there's a simple fix (e.g., a shear-pin or breakaway
