9-5 Troubleshooting Hesitant acceleration
My saab 2.3 stage 4 has been hesitating and "jittering" on hard acceleration. it started out of the blue and wondered if any one has had the same problem. Checked the spark plugs and decided to order new once. Can it be the spark plug problem, or maybe the ignition cassette?

SELLING/BUYING A SAAB 2000 Saab 9-3 automatic 35,000 miles JDM
Beautiful saab that I couldn't resist importing into the US. The automatic shifts well and the engine is super responsive! Everything works in this vehicle and it drives super straight. If I recall correctly it was a 4.5 at the auction. The AC works great and the hatch is super sexy.
The battery was recently replaced and it's being driven in rotation at our used vehicle dealership.
The title is in hand and asking 5600 for pickup in Rudy Arkansas. We can also drive the vehicle to you for free if close. This vehicle deserves to go to a Saab person! hondajdmimports.com dealership website

ABS module question
I have a 2009 Saab 9-3 sportcombi with the V6 xwd and a six speed manual I’ve been told that I need an ABS module and it needs to be from a manual as well. Is that true or can I get away with one from a V6 all-wheel-drive automatic?

SELLING/BUYING A SAAB Is it worth getting a 2007 Saab 9-3
Per the title I’ve been looking into getting a 9-3 and found one for $6,974 with 92k miles. I looked up mechanics near me who can work with a Saab and found at least two nearby. It would be a daily use car: to and from work, short trips to LA via freeway. I still need to make an appointment for a test drive at the dealership, but wanted to get y’all’s opinion on if it’s worth it as a first time car 🫡

9-3 Troubleshooting Nuke independent garages.
I trusted them just once to do the tie rods so it can pass yearly inspection. They tightened the brand new wheel bolts into my brand new wheel hub so tight that it broke my socket when trying to undo. WHY JUST WHY WOULD YOU PUT 1000NM ON A WHEEL BOLT???? AND ONLY ON ONE OF FIVE?
I'm actually lost don't know what I'm meant to do now.

Schwedenteile order anyone?
Hey guys, anybody ordered from Schwedenteile recently? I did and chose by mistake bank transfer which says that the order will be shipped only once payment is received, unlike with card. Payment went through and I sent an email to let them know, but I've got no news from them in 2 days and am worried since it says 365 days a year customer service 🙃
Thanks!

Saab?
I was looking for a car and found Saab 9-5 V6 2010. I was researching a lot about it information is not clear for me. I just want some exotic, reliable, powerful car. Some questions are:
Those who had it, how is it?
Is this car worth good for upgrading projects?
Which one is the best?
Can it become classic in future?

Family photo
The 9-5 died randomly on the road and I had to come to the rescue with a spare DI cassette. It started to act up recently and I've already ordered a new cassette, just didn't expect it to completely fail so quickly. Good thing I had a spare one that I picked at a junkyard some time ago. Crisis avoided but now I don't get to drive the vert until I fix the Aero.

P0601 T8 Gonna clone the ECU to another ECU. Questions.
I haven't gotten the damaged ECU or the replacement yet so I am just gathering info for now.
I have a Tech2 and a Lawicel CanUSB, I have the T8-suite and can-flasher.
What do I do the ECU is so damaged that I can't read it? What do I do then?
New to T8:s but I have worked both T7 and T5 before.

Both temperature gauge and fuel gauge seems to get stuck at the same level.
My fuel gauge doesn’t go past the 1/4 mark. The D.T.E seems to be accurate. I would say that the indicator shows the correct level when going below 1/4. But I also noticed that the temperature gauge also seems to get stuck at the same level. When cold, it slowly rises but doesn’t go above as shown in the picture.
Is this a coincidence or does anyone have a suggestion of what it could be?
It’s a 9-3 -1999 2,0 SE

New addition to family: a 2002 9-5 Linear Station Wagon
Just picked her up over the weekend. She’s got 095,095 miles on the dash with a check engine light on. I took a chance on her and dropped her off at the shop. Hopefully, I can get her to pass smog soon. She’s overall in good condition: interior & exterior. Has a couple leaks but looking forward to my analog center console and being a first time wagon owner (My other car is a 1993 240 Volvo). 😁
Any tips for a new SAAB owner are welcome.

Finally got my OG back!
Celebrated my 4 years of ownership with her not to long ago, and it's never looked nor driven this good!
Right before the 4 year mark I picked my OG back up after her surgery.
And also attended my first proper car show with her a few days later which was more fun then I expected lol!
Small summary of said surgery:
She now has the old engine out of my 9-5 Aero together with a genuine Viggen gearbox!
Also did some interior upgrades such as oil temp/pressure gauges and finally installed the GenuineSaab pedals.
And had to make the engine bay look a little better, so put on a classic valve cover!

Software to Fix LED Flickering on the NG 9-3
I'm currently developing software to fix the LED flicker in the NG 9-3. I still need to figure out how to disable the check for individual lights, but other than that, it works great. I just wanted to share this, as I think it will be useful to a lot of people.

Tid fuel pressure problem
Hey, I've got a 93 1.9tid 150hp from 2009. I had the fuel rail sensor fail on me giving me limited performance when I'de presse the accelerator more than 15%. After changing the fuel rail pressure sensor I tested the car. I pulled hard on third and when I got to 3500rpm I got the fuel pressure low error again. The car is drivable, I rarely get to 3500rpm.
I've checked the realtime data and the high pump fuel regulator doesn't go more than 40%, it's always between 30% and 40% even if I accelerat hard doesn't go more than 40%. Can this be a bad high fuel pressure pump solenoid (I don't know how to call it) ?
