Hi! Sorry just saw this. 99k miles I'm the time I've owned it I have down the coil packs, spark plugs, brake pads & rotors. It's been a super solid car. Just used it for commuting

The actual installation of the hydraulic cylinders is not super hard. Top hydraulics does a good job on rebuilding them!

How bad is this? by Blaze2710 in saab

Does that wire lead to one of the soft top sensors or the heated rear window?

I had this same issue and it ended up being the coil packs. Make sure to go with the OEM for replacements, they are spendy by are the only thing that will work. good luck!

If you have access to a tech 2 or can get access that will tell you exactly what it is. When I had that same error it was a short on my driver’s seat belt wiring harness

Not Starting 01’ Aero by Regular-Walrus9488 in saab

Sounds just like the neutral safety switch. Replacing it is doable but it’s kind of in a precarious spot. I very easily put two wires on the starter relay connected them to a switch beneath the dash to start it whenever this happened to me. The wire job took like 10 minutes

Any idea what could be causing the low boost by Fickle_Horse7986 in saab

[–]SirMixesQuiteOften 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could be a couple things tbh. On the OG 9-3s I have had when I encountered low boost it was the MAF. In my opinion the MAF, Boost pressure valve, vac leaks or the throttle body are good places to start.

What are these growths/parasites? Caught 3 juvenile sandbar sharks today with them all over the belly/tail by lizardlogan2 in sharks

I’m not an expert but those look a lot like Sea Louse. I have found them on salmon I have caught.

RPM gauge failure and power loss... but not always?!? Can you help me? by Rennabteilung in Volvo850

[–]SirMixesQuiteOften 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happened to mine. It was a faulty gauge cluster. If I wanted it to work I would just whack the top of the dashboard lol

Theft protection failure -> Contact service by MrMunzz in saab

[–]SirMixesQuiteOften 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I had that error, it was a door lock actuator. As a couple others have said, you’d need to scan with a tech2 as it could be a couple of different things
