@yourtechstation 2 месяца назад

The paint flaking off the bump shows it was red underneath the bumper was replaced. I bet it was in a front end accident on the driver side messing up the wheel alignment and cracking the transmission case.

@Devastator0 2 месяца назад

They are really good cars, if you can get by some of their quirks. A friend of mine’s Dad bought one new and then my friend inherited it, still has it to this day with around 250,000km’s on it and he loves it.

@tommink2577 2 месяца назад

You have the dreaded oil level sender O-ring leak. Not a fun job, but can be done with some dexterity. You can push the connector into the oil pan (retained with wire, of course) and swap the O-ring *inside* the oil pan. Like I said, not fun. Let me know if you want me to mail you one of the O-rings, I have several extras.

@okletsskate 2 месяца назад

I've done this myself, there's a good guide for this on SaabCentral. It's finicky but WAY WAY easier than dropping the pan.

@markvankampen1794 2 месяца назад

that wobble you describe can also be the engine bay mounted U-joint from the steering assembly, its a 13mm bolt and you can reach it via the driver side front side wheel arch, you do need 2 extentions probably to reach it, tighten that nut up abit then you'll loose that dead feeling it would have if you drive straight

I worked for a very large rental car company over 20 years ago. We had these Saab's. Very sporty..but unreliable. Many times we had to rescue customers stranded somewhere in Southern California. Fortunately for my company these Saab's where on a lease/purchase arraignment. So after battling these cars for six months we were able to cancel the lease and gave them back to Saab.

You have to buy new tires before the alignment, or else the the alignment will not be correct. Impossible to get a correct alignment with tires that have wearing on the sides.
