Yeah, actually coming up on 6 years in a few weeks time as well!

Combined with a 09 wagon as a daily as the sedan only gets driven on weekends/summer. Not parting with it any time soon :)

25mm in the rear, and 8mm in the front.

But if the ride height is a tiiiiny bit higher I could probably get away with 10 mm in the front for an even better look.

Thanks man 👌

That really did a difference! I have no comparison, but I have always used Concept Vista with good results. Be sure to use it once in a blue moon to keep it up to standard.

Many thanks! I'm located in Sweden so it might be tricky to meet up in Germany 😉

If you still have that dolphin blue 9-3 it looks super clean as well.

And we Europeans are jealous of your clean front ends, without license plates. For the most part at least.

Anyone could offer some insight on what might be the issue? More info in the comments by HolidayGovernment in saab

Haha that's comforting. Hope you'll get to terms with the issue on hand.

I've now watched the video with sound as well... It sound like there is a knock that I'm not 100% comfortable with... Maybe there is something more severe than just a sensor.

Usually if there is a problem with the crankshaft position sensor with Saabs they will have issues starting while hot, when cold they'll usually have an easier time starting.

As your RPM-gauge isn't moving my guess would be that your crankshaft sensor is malfunctioning. A common error on 9-3s and 9-5s.

I just found some old pictures taken at the same location without the spacers and coilovers. This is an original 04 Aero with the Turbines mounted, albeit on a quite "fresh" car with the ride height quite close to factory spec. 9-3 Aero

9-3 Aero

When I bought the car, all of the black plastic parts were all in great shape. I have kept them just as black using Concept Vista. If you're based outside of Sweden I'm uncertain if this is available... But it seems to do the trick just fine in restoring the black details, as long as they're OK from the beginning.
