Well the worst reason would be a blown head gasket. I had that happen to me. You may also check the by-pass valve on the front wall of the engine compartment for the coolant leak.

It could be to the brake booster. Where does does the other end connect? Does tee with another hose or does it connect to a valve or other body?

I broke a similar hose on my turbo. It went to the oil trap. The red retainer is a bear to get out. It is compressed with an o-rind and the bottom of it bites into the plastic tube. I found a...

Finally got this figured out. Removing the hose under the intake manifold was not easy. Used a trick I found on line in a video using a zip tie and some tape. I actually wrapped electrical tape on...

Well I guess I really didn’t understand how the retaining clip/bushing was/is installed in the intake tube. After destroying the red clip to get it out, I guess somehow there is a brass threaded...

Well I destroyed the red bushing while struggling to remove the piece of tube from the intake pipe, but I took Geoff's advice and removed the hose from the MAS, but I could barely reach the bottom...

Thanks for the input. I think Geoff's idea to remove the hose at the MAS is a good one to prevent the remaining small piece from falling into the intake tube by pushing from the bottom. I will need...

I tried to steal a picture and I guess it didn't work. Maybe this one will come out. The piece in the blue circle. It's just the red press fit bushing that clamps around the the tube. My plastic tube...

So in my investigation to find my oil leak and belt problem, i broke the brittle plastic oil trap to intake tube at the intake side. I cannot seem to get the piece out of the intake tube. Does anyone...

Well I took things apart today. Looks like the oil leak is in the lower section as the top of the engine is fairly clean.

There seems to be some spray around the tensioner, but it's...

Geoff I understand your point, but that's probably not going to happen. Too expensive to do that. I guess I'll start with recharging the battery and seeing it there is a current draw on it. After...

Well my fellow Saabists I am in need of your thorough knowledge of the vehicle we love. I have an 07 9-5 2.3t which has a little over 153K miles on it. I have always had a small oil leak, but never...

What happened?

I bought a key from EEuroparts that was cut by them based upon my VIN number. I bought a used key on EBAY to get the FOB. I had to have the FOB married, which you don't need. I don't think you need...

Thanks Geoff. I tried that, but that gives four choices:

Tan/red. Code cv. Red/white. Yellowith red.
Code cw. Red/white.
Code he. Blue/tan. White, blue. Blue, yellow. Orange/blue (code ga)....

While replacing a fender that was run into by a deer, I noticed something that looked funny. Upon closer inspection, I found that my spring on the drivers side had broken at the base. Trying to find...

Should be in the center console and accessible from the passenger side. You need to pull off the panels under the dash.

Responses like Silver2U's is what makes this forum so awesome.

I have noticed that while sitting in my 07 9-5, engine running in park, I will hear chimes like a fault indication, but I get no message on the SID and no lights (i.e. CEL) on the dash. There seems...

Nice Car DeanoK, but you need work on your thread titles. That sounded like TMI...:o Just a little levity during these crazy times!

I have a 2007 9-5 and had only one key. I ordered a cut key only from EEuroparts and bought a used key with transmitter on EBay. I put the transmitter from the used key in the new cut key and had it...

I believe the vacuum hose is 3.5 mm. I first tried 4 mm and they kept coming off so I went to 3 mm and have had no problem since. This is what I used; Turbosmart TS-HV0303-BE Blue 3mm Vacuum Hose

I have an 07 9-5 2.3t with a factory head unit. While driving the other day, I inserted a CD into the head unit and it did not load. It will not load or eject. I get a "Disc Error" message when it...

My 07 9-5 2.3t had the P1110 code until I replaced the boost control valve on the firewall. I also had a similar problem with the car cranking and not turning over. I had 40 PSI pressure on the fuel...

Short term, you probably won't see much effect. Long term, the alcohol will degrade the seals and hoses. It will put added strain on the fuel pump which wasn't designed for it. Your fuel injectors...
