the tools that it takes:

• torx T25

• hexagonal socket 7mm

the parts needed:
for an air filter use genuine Saab parts for the best performance.



difficulty rating:
not so difficult for people of mechanical skill.

rough time estimate for the average DIY:
about half and hour....... take easy your time.

Steps:

• -remove radiator beam screws that secure the intake pipe of turbo.

unscrew the two bolts (T25) of the air hose see picture:

• -disconnect the hose from the filter cover (7mm socket):

wires too tight in the brown connector.
I unplug for easy and security to avoid damages in the terminals.


-secure with a cloth the entrance of the intake pipe of turbo to avoid dust in.

• -remove the top of the air filter box

see the filter after two years:


clean the housing air filter....as much as you can... air compressed if you have.
or a household vacuum cleaner. never mind, I use a cloth and brush.

please note to protect the hose air admission to the turbo.

• -mount a new filter

• assembled in the same way but in reverse way.
