Hello together, I have a problem with my Saab 900 S, built in 1992, and hope that someone might have an idea what it might be. Basically, the car always starts without problems, whether it has outside -5°C or has stood for several days. The problem only occurs under a certain condition: If I have driven a longer distance (e.g. highway) and the car has then stopped for 4–5 hours, it does not start any more. The starter spins quite normally, but the mo tor feels “dead” as if the ignition is not coming. But pushing helps – then it starts immediately! Another detail: The tachometer moves slightly during the start attempt, but stays low. If this is relevant: the battery is fine, and the starter has been renewed recently. Has anyone ever had a similar problem or an idea, which I should test first? I am grateful for every tip! Many greetings

Hello together, my 900/IIer spins again the cruise control. It can sometimes be switched on (Cruise lamp goes on), but when I press “Set”, the voltage seems to collapse and the beautiful yellow cruise lamp goes off. If it succeeds here and there to activate it, it usually shuts itself off after some time. Acquired aggravation is that it can’t be switched on at all. Sounds hard after an electrical problem. Someone has an id ee, where you have to chase in contact spray or what else can it be? Thanks already and greeting, Hägar

Hello, after failure of the steering hydraulics I need a new pump. Actually no problem. Orders with KFZ24 according to chassis number etc.. Unfortunately it does not fit completely. On request with KFZ24 (my model was listed fittingly) I was informed, I should have also compared the OE number. However, the defective pump is installed, the car drives (thinking only a little difficult) and the OE number in egg-built condition not to be seen. Question: Where can I get the OE number out ohn e Extension of the original? I couldn’t find parts list according to SAAB types. Thanks in advance for your information. Greetings Edzard

The trunk of my car is always damp, when it is used some time not. It has a glass sliding roof. I suspect that part of the water comes from the rear drains …that speaks for it, that in the back window after the laundry water traces are present. My question is now, whether I can only check and clean the hoses that go from the sliding roof to the rear in the wheel box, if I dismantle the roof sky? An unwise phenomenon is anyway, w he water can get into the bead of the emergency bike ?? Can anyone say anything about it ? Gruss Artarun

Hello all, I am an absolute rookie about cars. And since a few days a joyful owner of a new (old) Saab 900II 2.0 SE Turbo. I bought the car (relatively) cheaply, with the awareness that still some work has to be put in. I am also ready to invest, because I find the car just really beautiful and was long looking for a 902 coupé. But now the joy is a bit clouded, because I “hidden in the car” an old TÜV report f This report has been deliberately kept secret by the seller (private) because I asked about the expired HU (reply: “No, I didn’t have any more”). Now to the actual question: I doubt whether I can get the car fit again (economically considered) or if it seems hopeless in the following mentioned flaws. And if yes, one could tell me about what the car is in good shape (economically considered). Here are the official complaints (there are other construction sites, but I leave them out): – 2nd-axis operating brake effect not sufficient and uneven – same for the parking brake – brake line middle Corrosion weakened – brake rope damaged at the rear – bumper defective attachment (front right) – exhaust pipe middle fixing defective and leaking – flex pipe leaking – exhaust system thermal protection fixing defective – transmission and mo gate leaks (oil loss) In addition, some things can be done in the interior, which is not relevant to TÜV at first. But of course also costs money. I would be very pleased about assessments! Thank you and greetings, JD
