I used electric cleaning solvent spray on mine because couldnt get the mechanism to open no matter how many times I tried. It did the trick and havent had any problems in a year now.

They do salt the roads over here as well. The thing is, my car is repainted just a few years back and it "shouldnt" be that bad under there. What actually happened was that the plastic that covers...

Thank you so much nordwulf!

Hi. Anybody know how to remove the pictured side skirt? Ive got a small rust problem that I need to fix but first I need to remove this in order to see how bad the damage actually is.

Yeah I asked the guy that fixes my Saab and he recommended the Aero clutch as well. I didint realize the prize difference was that small.

Im pretty much on a budget so thought about getting this https://www.maptunparts.com/transmission-system/clutch-kit/4999/clutch-kit-saab-9-5-20t-23t.html since the work itself is gonna cost a ton. No...

I seem to only find kits that include the clutch pressure plate, clutch plate and central slave cylinder. Seems that I have to find the throwout bearing sold separately.

Do you know if it can be fixed with a clutch kit that they sell or are there other parts that usually need replacing too? Thanks for the help.

Well the clutch does smell from time to time and also squeeks when its pressed. But im starting to think that this problem is related to the turbo. Because when I accelerate to over 80kmph in the...

So Ive had the problem a few times that when im driving at higher speeds and switch gear the RPM:s rise but the car doesent accelerate, like it wouldnt be in gear at all. Could it be possible that...

Thanks. Do you know if it should give out any fault codes if its faulty? All im getting is the "brake light failure" error message. Think i'll check the harness one more time before starting to look...

Its a manual. Any idea where the switch is in the engine room? Cant seem to find a picture of it on google. Or maybe im just bad at googling.



edit: so its in the transmission housing and not...

So I noticed a few days ago that neither of my reverse lights worked. I changed the bulbs and the fuse, and ive checked the electrical harness for damage. No luck and no luck. Any idea what might be...

Thanks for the advice anyway tho.

The sedans back head rests doesent have the hooks. The head rests only have a button on the side that you press so that you can collapse them down.

So I lowerd the head rests in the back seat for the first time in my 9-5 sedan and now only the middle one locks back to the upward postition. Is there some way to reset the locking mechanism in the...

Im relieved to hear that.

The saga continues. While watching videos on installing brake pads and discs I noticed that the front brake pads have a small metal clip that is pointed downwards in all the videos Ive watched. But...

Yes of course. But it doesent mean that they cant try and rip you off. I dont have the proper place to work on my car since my parking spot is really narrow and my neighbours own wide sedans as well....

The only excuse was that he let a new young worker do the job and blamed him. I dont see how that excuses anything since as the one in charge he should always check out the outcome of the work....

Great find and nice work.

Here is a thorough guide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kr67JEJDbgw and as Digger said, google is your friend when it comes to find a legit company.

Good to hear. I just read somewhere that the ethanol fuel loosens more of the sludge and makes the issue worse.

Is your speed gauge still working? The ABS module failing was a common problem in the 98-04 models so it seems youre just really unlucky. And yes, it can be saved but it depends on how long the...

Haha tell me about it. Cant wait for what excuse they come up with. The fact ive never worked on brakes myself and noticed this makes me feel real glad I paid for "professionals" to do the work.
