I have a 9-4x as my daily drive in Stockholm since about a year and a half. I would also be interested if there is a solution to reprogram the infotainment to european standards.

Nice, so we can have a local 9-4x club in Stockholm I guess your's is a US import? Would be good to meet up and compare notes on service, etc. I was in Kiel last week and visited the SAAB dealer that is on the picture above (the red 9-4x is still there) and they claim to be able to get hold of sparepart via US.

Yep, mine is a US import. I have been fortunately enough to not have any real issues or needs for spares yet, but inevitably that day will come... good to know where to turn then.
I do however have the "passenger side footwell leakage" problem (discussed in another thread). Need to find a place to get that fixed. Any hints anyone?

Nice to see several 9-4X owners in Europe. I don't want to complain or anything but.. I share Mr. Carlsson's thoughts.

Hi Joachim,
as suggested in a previous post above I wrote an E-Mail to the Autohaus Lafrentz in Kiel three weeks ago. I got a very quick and professional response from Mr. Lafrentz. (If Kiel would not be that far away from here, this dealer would have been the second home for #91 and all my previous SAAB's! )
I hope it's allowed to quote his answer:
"leider gibt es keine Lösung zur Änderung von US auf EU Navigation. Es müsste das komplette System
getauscht werden. Dies haben wir hier im Haus bei unserem eigenen Fahrzeug probiert, leider kann das
EU Gerät aber im Fahrzeug weder programmiert noch freigeschaltet werden. Wir sind nach wie vor im
engen Kontakt mit den entsprechenden Persönlichkeiten bei Saab, haben aber leider noch keine Lösung
bekommen!"
Best regards,
Thomas

I am happy to confirm that this stunning Crystal Red Aero is now standing on my driveway in Stockholm (picture taken last week when I was driving home from Kiel and just had to stop by the factory in Trollhättan to take some pics)...
Seems we can indeed start our local 9-4X club now
