Saab 9-3 Coolant Tank Change & Test Drive 

These are really great cars. I bought one almost identical 3 yrs ago and have had nothing but success No breakdowns. No issues. A few tires and oil changes. Pretty bullet proof

Mike, at 7:16 you shout out how quiet the Saab Engine was ! If you keep this Saab 9-3 for you own use, I believe you would love it more and more ! As a Saab owner myself, I really love my 2006 9-3 2.0T and enjoy driving it everyday. Unfortunately GM stopped production of Saab after 2012.... Too Bad ! If you are planning to sell it, how much you're asking for ? Let me know ....

They go for around 4,000 without a rebuilt title, so about 3,000 would be a good price

20000 subs! Keep up the good work MWM! Hope that you and the ducks are doing great!

I think the float in the coolant expansion tank is a low level warning, a magnet in the float operating a reed switch

They're called iceblock taillights! And I love it I miss my Saab so much 😂they're awesome little cars

Always a relaxed chill video time MWM! Thanks for the update!

I would believe even with the type of title and what you have into it I can see you getting 2500 for it. 1800 is the least you should accept. The hail damage is the only thing that could be the killer on this deal. If you could get some of the hail damage taken care of you could possibly get more. But again it's a great run and drive and the turbo makes it a real fun yet very functional daily driver. Thanks for the update. As always be safe.

With all the hard work we've seen you exert, bout time you get one like this. Good luck whatever you do with it and thank you for taking us along for the FIRST ride! Sonny

Hey mike you should buy a new temp sensor . It is located top front left of cylinder head . Basically where the top hose connects to the motor .. sensor is screwed in downward you will see the plug . Just behind the metal fuel lines. . They do sell RED led bulbs at autozone . SELL IT FOR $2750 You should have no problems selling it . YOU ARE THE MAN MIKE

Monkey Wrench Mike, one of my absolute favorite RU-vidrs!!! Love the content…👍❤️

All GM coolant is orange so it can better hide the rust from their cheap radiators they used to use. That used to be what my uncle told me amd he was a huge Chevy fanatic. I think that's not true,but he swore it was. Used car prices, especially Saab fanatics and they are out there, will buy this in a heartbeat

that car is a f$cking beast for $800! Mike does it again! Well done sir

When you added up the price towards the end you forgot the additional $20 for the key shell replacement but sweet deal wish i could afford it id buy it

Saabs were good cars but what killed them in my opinion is the price of spare parts and availability. Still, they can be good sleeper cars.

Always a good time playing with the old cars Mike

Yes more off the saab, great video😀👍

Not a awful sob story here, sounds like a good sob story! Thanks for the entertainment!

You, you went to a wrecking yard without us? So, the romance of Lucky Duck was a bust? Oh dear.

Love your videos and can’t wait to watch the next one lol 🚣🏼‍♀️👍❤️🚘

As much as you say that it’s a Saab saga I think it’s not too bad

You got some interesting things going on there at your front bumper

Hi mike just wanted to say thank you for the sticker I received it last week

Good to see you mike take care good luck buddy

I don't always know. I don't always know when I think I know what I know. To keep an open mind, searching to learn more, taking great caution when sharing my trust. Just might make for a better day. One thng's for sure, though, I won't always know when I think I know what I know. Have a better day anyway. Sincerely, Jekelex

If you make another junkyard run, see if you can get the big plastic cover for the front of the engine that is missing from yours. It looks weird without it.

Well Mike what you just experienced is why SAAB cars have such a loyal following. Its the turbocharged acceleration / torque delivery. Its just like no other car in its class. Even Clarkson found this out to his surprise. My OCD is twitching though. Please get that engine bay degreased!

Thanks for the entertainment!

Man that thing looks clean.

grats on 20k!

Mike give it a good detail, bit of dirt near the driver grab handle etc. good beater car

U forgot to count the thermostat in the expenses…by the way, why don’t you get in touch with Auto Autopsy and sell him the car? He is all about Saab’s..

2995 Mike all day long for that year model and it runs good you can get that no problem at all

Nice Saab mike you should have no trouble selling it

Hey mike I would ask 2750$ for it in this market ! Decent mileage and it’s nicely equipped. Also I noticed your microphone wire gets caught sometimes during videos , maybe feed wire behind your shirt and through the neck hole and clip it how you normally do this stops it from getting tangled up !! Congrats on subscribers !!

Love it AND sesame st included..hey mate house it getting a little bit small time to move the managery out of town.

Hey Mike, If your Saab Story was a song, would it be sung by Blue Swede? Good work, now time to sell.

Put it up on all those places shouldn’t take long to sell or this market I would ask 2000 and take 1900. Just my opinion. Like always mike good luck and stay safe

Better late than never!

Great video

Love the car!!!! Great project!!!! I love your videos

Even with a rebuilt title and how good it runs I say $3500

Great video Mike!

Good Coverage On The Saab Mike, I’d Say Sell It For $5500.00 On The High Side..

Nice work. With that key fob it looks like 500bucks more. Too bad you don't want to address the paint, I guess maaco in Tulsa is also back logged for weeks. As is 2300 would be fair. Or rattle-can it and aim for 3000... Wait, flip it quick so I can get my W140 red pig content faster, Cato agrees 😁😁

Love your videos!

What would the cost be to get the clear coat redone Mike? I was going to ask how the Ducks were getting on together, but it seems we will find out in the next episode. 🤔😁

Mike S55 AMG is really Great Car 🚘 🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘

What's the wild possibility that you can fish the dropped valve back with a small magnet ? Just a thought .

then keep if it's sporty! re-dew the clear coat at maco! SAABs are good cars....

My SAAB mechanic told me? Hand over my check book, and wallet

$2500.00 or better nice job Mike. Stay Safe.

Mikess first Saab story

The sunroof might just need to be reset.

I'd say $1500 on Facebook. Nice car and good content.

Thinking the S55 AMG needs your time soon

I think it needs new shocks ,,,it bounces around even when you are just sitting in it..

Ask $2000,take $1600

2500 to 3 grand would be a good starting point for it.

Isn't that ball thingy in the reservoir a float for the the low coolant level ? Also - in the back of my mind I think that Saab motors are made by Mitsubishi, so are good... !!!

I also have a saab and documenting everything it got mechanical problems right now too 🤣

Looks like it has the good coolant T upgrade by the ecu. Those bust all the time and a good thing to do is upgrade them to the metal ones like on this car.

I LIKE THAT CAR YOU SHOULD KEEP IT FOR A GROCERY GETTER OR A SPARE RUNNER..

The Saab put it up for $3,900 but keep your feet on the ground for no less than 3k. Closer to that $3,900 the better.

Great stuff

Kelly blue Book says 2500.00 to 3800.00 value. On the lowest value scale, Fair, good ,or excellent I used the fair

Mike keep the Saab as its more reliable than a Bentley

Keep your emotions in check, it's not a mercedes

2900 or best offer don't take less than 25 00 should get that easily at today's prices

Mike that plug you found is not for the temperature sensor …. It is for the LOW COLANT LIGHT 😂. I’m guessing you did not read the paragraph I wrote to you about your cooling system situation on your last video ????? You probably should read it just trying to help you out

I gave $3000 for mine with 140k. It’s a wagon tho. Get it on highway and watch 95 mph at 3000 rpm. Like on rails. Better than a benz

Considering the condition and the rebuilt title 2-2,5K$ is a fair price

Put it up for $3000 and I'm always happy to double my money so gives you some wiggle room $3000-$2000 on marketplace

Flip it yourself. Auction fees will eat up your profit. Should bring at least $2k with rebuilt title. Good first time school car. Good luck.

Car prices are quite high at the moment I believe. Any college kid looking for a 'rough' car would probably bite your hand off for $2,500. Also be a good start for project Bentley!!

I’ll start the bid, $1,000

You cursed your self saying it will be easy oh no

I lovey saab. If anything ill get a engine swap

I would fix the mirror on it and list it for 3500. You should be able to get 3000 without a problem

Make it a giveaway car to one of your subscribers that would be cool

2500.00 sounds good

Have you been bitten by the Saab bug yet? I suspect more in your future!

I like your channel but why you never finish one project? You jump from one car to the other at the end you should rent a storage to keep your different unfinished cars,off course it’s your way off handling your channel but it’s less confusing for us to follow your project’s,any way good luck with the Saab

I guess one of the ducks has gone to a better world🤧

Monkey Mike owns all the cars I love. Those old Mercedes are charming. I owned in the past a 1972 240D, that was the best, in 2004 I had an E420, really fast, I am looking for a 300 SDL 1998. Any help?

$2500 no less, ask for more and negotiate. Good running cars are at a HUGE premium right now due to the chip shortage.

Sell it to me I love it.

I would list it at 2250-2500$ it should sell pretty quickly

I just need to change the thermostat on mine after getting a P0116 error. Well I guess I will just swap the sensor first and see if that's it, but can you easily remove the tank and move it a little to gain access to the thermostat without draining it?

You can get $4,000-$5,000 for it but i think $3,600 is a fair price

Cute kid, weird dad, good videos. 👍

Maybe sand the clearcoat down yourself then get a cheap Maaco spray?

Mike in the UK they are selling for around £3k personally USA price move it on fast $2.200 thats a start to your dream wheels.

2k only because the body damage and title. Just do 1900 firm and should sell quick

Saab's have very little resale value unless there mint ! But i do like them....lol

Congratulations 👏 on the Subs you deserve it, I'd ask$2900 and work yer way down not by much, where did you get your cool bracelets? Thank you Mike.

I would say 1,500 for your baby saab

$2500 I would ask

2850

Try to trade it up
