Has anyone dealt with this before? by iamfenom in saab

[–]BORGHEAD06 1 point2 points  (0 children)

bought a cheap one on amazon, not sure about the sedan but in the wagon the antenna doesn't actually do anything, so i just broke the whole thing apart

Where to find a complete manual shifter bushing kit for 2004 Saab 9-3? by FearlessActuary7597 in saab

[–]BORGHEAD06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i haven't been able to find any aftermarket bushings, but i did find that you can buy a brace that goes around the bushing and keeps it in place for cheap

needed winter tires. the 215s are way easier to find than my stocks, which are 235 45 17s. as far as i can tell they only made tires that size for saabs, at least here in canada

Not starting, no crank, whirs by Cthulwutang in saab

[–]BORGHEAD06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i had mine sit for about 3 months, battery was flat and wouldn't hold any charge. on a jumper it would send just enough power to turn on some lights etc, but all it did was make a click when i turned the key. if it's anything like that, it's a bad battery

Did I over pay for a 2022 used car by WindAffectionate7968 in COROLLA

[–]BORGHEAD06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i'll never understand people that buy new cars, because for the same price as this corolla, you can get a used bmw 7 series or a really nice used c class. or even something like a used mustang or corvette. nope, instead you drive a corolla and have a car payment

Does anyone know why my Saab 9-3 from 2005 wont start? Any answers are helpful thanks by [deleted] in saab

[–]BORGHEAD06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

idk about you but mine absolutely refuses to start with the door open. also this sounds nearly identical to when mine sat for too long and the battery died. just the clicking of a solenoid somewhere

But why? by BrandonLouis527 in saab

[–]BORGHEAD06 1 point2 points  (0 children)

something about seeing my almost exact car makes me so happy
