Our SAAB 96 V4
My first car and SAAB is a type 96. And it has the V4 engine. This SAAB has been bought by my parents in 1991, as a second car. When buying this SAAB 96 V4 it wasn’t original anymore. It had already the bumpers from the last model year instead of the original chrome bumpers.…Continue reading Our SAAB 96 V4
Our SAAB 900S
As a second car we drive a SAAB 900S from 1993. This 900 is from the last year this classic model was built (except the convertible which was build a year longer). We have the 5-door version, which is great for a family. In the beautiful color Ruby red. Standard equipment This last year (and…Continue reading Our SAAB 900S
Our cars (mostly SAAB)
I do love the Swedish brand SAAB already for a long time. Beginning of the 80’s my parents switched from Citroën to SAAB and I have always felt more safe in a SAAB. That is one of the reasons I still drive SAAB although production is stopped already years ago and no new car will…Continue reading Our cars (mostly SAAB)
Our SAAB 9-5ng and why did we bought this specific one
We bought our SAAB 9-5ng in January 2016. Our previous SAAB had a diesel engine, because of the kilometers we drive. So the 9-5ng should also have a diesel engine as well. I prefer to look in The Netherlands. First I saw a beautiful one for sale in Arnhem. It was in the color Oak…Continue reading Our SAAB 9-5ng and why did we bought this specific one
Lightbar dimmed on a SAAB 9-5ng

Since I am living in The Netherlands my area of repair options are restricted to The Netherlands, Germany…Continue reading Lightbar dimmed on a SAAB 9-5ng
Issues with oil pressure on a SAAB 9-5ng TTID
When we bought our SAAB 9-5ng I knew it has an oil pressure issue, but it was told me that it has to do with the sensor. Well it has nothing to do with the sensor, since the oil pressure is just too low. Starting cold the oil pressure is less than 1 bar and…Continue reading Issues with oil pressure on a SAAB 9-5ng TTID
Issues with acceleration on a SAAB 9-5ng
In November 2016 after maintenance on the heated seats the car did barely respond on the gaspedal. Reading out the error tells us to replace the gaspedal. So a second hand gaspedal was bought and after the switch all looks fine. However a few weeks later starting the car warm there was an ESP warning.…Continue reading Issues with acceleration on a SAAB 9-5ng
