I went through the same thing with my car a few years ago. That is, Low Coolant light coming on when the coolant level was ok. I ended up having the coolant tank and hoses replaced by a trusted...

I just thought I’d start this and see if anyone wants to add their experiences or otherwise discuss. In 1985, when we were expecting our first child, my wife and I bought a new base model Saab 900...

The right and center windshield washer nozzles on my 2009 Aero convertible failed and when researching the issue on this board I found this thread in the 9-5 area: ...

So there's a happy ending to the story. Took it to my local body shop and the guy says that he can either try to put it back in place, or remove the whole cover and inspect. Naturally, I chose the...

Digger, Thanks for quick reply and detailed information. Upon consideration, it's a bit more than I am able/equipped to deal with right now. I'll take it to a local body shop that knows me and hope...

I parked too close to the parking barrier and when I backed up, the left side of my bumper cover/air dam was pulled loose. See photos. I'm not able to get it back into place by hand. The front...

liverkelly: Please listen to nordwulf and take his advice seriously. Not only is he an Administrator on this board, but he has a lot of experience with Saabs and is very helpful. Perhaps someone...

My 2009 Aero convertible. This is my fourth Saab, purchased last December from Swedish Motors in Marietta, PA. It had been a 23 year Saab hiatus since I totaled our 1985 900 Combi. We were looking...

Welcome BT, and thanks for the interesting intro. In many ways you are rather the opposite of myself and many other members here. I'm a car guy, like to drive even when I don't have to, and am on...

I don't know what GM dealers in the UK have, but here in the US, the dealers and Official Service Centers have access to a system that lets them enter a VIN and get the complete service history of...

Hi Cloves, No it was not a GM dealer. It's Scandinavian Import Servicecenter in Rockville, MD. They've been working on Saabs and Volvos for 30 or 40 years. When Saab went under, they notified...

I want to post a followup to my problem before this thread gets too stale. Thanks, Digger, for your comments. I ended up having my tech (an official Saab service center) replace the tank, with the...

Good for you folks for saving it! Those hubcaps bring back memories: I had the same car but in red, manual shift. Hope you restore it and post details. Cheers, Steve

OK, thanks!

Thanks Digger. I will try to check this out.

I've read quite a bit on this forum and elsewhere about the coolant tank issues with the V6. I have a 2009 Aero convertible with only 39K miles. Owned 3 months, I started to have Low Coolant light...

Here are the two halves of my coolant cap. This just happened: for the second time in a month or so (1000 miles or so), I got a Low Coolant message. First time, car was hot, I stopped...

Thanks for the shots, Frank! Aren't those cars to die for? Love the grey paint with red accents. I must try and find this movie, having read the book.
Cheers, Steve

I'm reading it now, about halfway through. I agree, all Saab owners and enthusiasts should read it! Cheers, A Man Called Steve

Thanks Bruno and Digger, these responses are very helpful. Upon further reading in my Manual, I see that it recommends one to pause between shifting into Drive and giving it gas. Maybe the car is...

Greetings and Happy New Year! I’ve owned a 2009 9-3 Aero Convertible, automatic, for a month now. I have a few questions that I hope this group can help me with:
1. When the car is cold (after...

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Frank! Thanks for all that you do for this site. Cheers,
Steve

But I draw the line on Hyundai. Spare me, it's Christmas. :lol:

At the risk of near-blasphemy, I'll say that for us in 1994, life after SAAB was Honda, and that was not a bad thing. When I totalled our 1985 900 in 1994 (it didn't take much damage to total a...

Thanks for the good info folks. I read a lot of the oil thread for 9-3 last night and confirmed that we should be using Mobil One, or other oil within spec. I had heard in the earlier days of Saab...
