Hello Saab enthusiast, I have learned today that there is a problem with the crankcase ventilation with Saab. My 93 AERO gasoline 205hp year 2000 is also affected according to the report. I just read in the forum that high oil consumption can be an indication of this problem and my AERO SÄUFT oil. However, to my knowledge these engines should hardly consume any oil. What is it like with a retrofit kit for the crankcase ventilation and is this also helpful, have read d As a result, there is too much oil consumption?!. Who is up-to-date on this matter? Are SAAB’s clientele offering? I am grateful for every answer. Greetings

THE oil for the Saab machines at risk of infarction: Mobil 1 OW-40, fully synth. with printed Saab release, with a nationwide operating car parts and workshop service provider: 4 liters 58,90 !!! The same oil over ebay at “omanitnat” e.g. 4 liters 24,- plus 7,- shipping costs, for whatever quantity. “Shipping is faster than the engine dies” (should you know)

Subject 2.2 TiD. I always use the Mobil1 SynthS 5W-40. Today I got oil again, as soon as changes are announced again. I noticed that the canisters have a new, rounder shape. I of course immediately looked at the small print. And look, it has now printed the GM release (GM-LL-B025). The other Normans were already correct and the oil was suitable before. Only as information for oil refillers or self-screws.

Hello I once again had a conversation about my 900II which is increased performance and at the same time over 93 he and 95 he Saab engines the performance can be increased which also make fun after all the 9000 cs or aero if one invests in these cars 2.3 turbo and gives wings these cars are unpredictablely inconspicuous and damn fast.The engines of the 9000 ern 2.3T should also withstand a lot more without forging piston etc. and in the maintenance are the also cheaper !? lich the strongest 9000 in Germany drives with 470 Ps. can that be possible ? is true that these engines of the 9000 he really are so good ?? (Ps. maptun I’ve already looked at) thank you for every answer.

Now I finally bought my dream car and after a long consideration instead of a 2.3 turbo decided for the 3.0 TiD, because I drive about 6000 km a month and often travel with caravan or trailer. My car is 1st hand EZ.04.01 and had run 63,000Km when buying 6 weeks ago (with checkbook). He always got 5W40 oil. Now I used 72,000Km down and with speedy driving approx.0.5l oil / consumption approx. 7.7-8.3L per 100Km. what I find appropriate. I’m very satisfied with the engine’s running performance (Vorgangerfahrzeug Opel Astra 2.2 DTI – hat stark Ölverbrauch) Now I’ve read here that almost every one of these engines is flying apart and have suddenly got stomach cramps and sweat outs. Did I buy factory scrap for expensive money now, or what can I do to keep having fun with the 9-5. According to my Saab dealer, the several with 1st engine and over 200TKm in the clientele !? Lug and Trug !? drive the engine always carefully warm and cold. I am grateful for all the advice.

Saab-community, recently I met a BMW engineer and as a 3.0 TID driver of course immediately reported about the sinking running bushings of this engine. He did not seem to be particularly impressed by this. He thought running bushings had to be maintained in order to achieve a high mileage. This would not be done at all today and at all BMW dispenses with running bushings, but uses engines constructed differently like other manufacturers. Now my question: Are engines m it Laufbuchsen no longer up-to-date? Thank you voarb! Greetings from Munich, especially to the fellow sufferers

Hello @ all My car is not always clean – with certain things I am absolutely sensitive – e.g. with the liquids and filters. Now Saab has introduced from MJ 2001 the “long life” cooling liquid (orange), which is to keep a “vehicle life” and no longer needs to be changed. I change my cooling liquid (BASF G48) every two years in May and if I look at my collection tank so, then I know “what good” to have done for my car. Freshly swirled up is she “grey” and this is also perfectly normal. My question to you … Who is changing anyway – who adheres to Saab’s promises and who hasn’t thought about it yet?

I’m about to buy a Saab 9.5 3.0 TiD from 2001. After reading the articles, however, I got a lot of thinking. The car has already run 120000 km. Did I understand correctly that the described problem with bushings applies to all engines of this size? Greeting Malte

Hello dear Saabgemeinde, since November 2005 have the convertible with the 2.8 liter engine V6 and Turbo! T u r b o ? If there is no turbo indicator on the instrument panel, I assume that it is a sucker! Now don’t complain immediately, after the moth 250 hp are fast enough, and you can drive on the highways, highways etc… with this traffic density… anyway not fast anymore! That may also be true! But it should not be that cars with about 100 hp less ä The power of a Mercedes E240 is already causing serious problems on the motorway (between 180 and 220Km/h) and GM ECO-T(Dr)eck engine sends a greeting! Who has had similar experience with the new V6 engine?

Hi, can it be that the new ignition cassette is also not ok? Yesterday and today, again short jerking – ignition oscillation at approx. 1500-2000 rpm. Tonight, after a short stand, hardly jumped. However, no stench detected. Can it be that the ignition cassette again in general? After just about 1000 km? Wolf24 P.S. the Germans play in the Bambini Liga? Brrrr
