#2223 of 2231 Re: "New" 2008 9-5 Prices [chawk01] by ponytrekker Jun 11, 2009 (12:00 pm)
Replying to: chawk01 (Jun 11, 2009 8:07 am) I looked in April and couldn't get anyone to go below 28k except for a demo. I was looking to pay 25-26k and no more.   For me 28k for a car from a bankrupt manufacturer that has been sitting for close to two years was more than I was looking to pay.
#2224 of 2231 No heat on 2000 Saab 9.5 3.0 ltr 6 cyl by cdyoung Jun 16, 2009 (9:55 am)

#2225 of 2231 No history on 2007 9-5 because european delivery? by billy44bob44 Aug 25, 2009 (7:47 am)
I'm looking at a used 2007 9-5 Aero and the dealer says no vehicle history report is available because the vehicle was originally acquired by the 1 original owner using Saab's European Delivery program, where you fly to Europe to pick up the car, drive it around, and then they ship it to the US (it is built for use in the US not in EU).   Does this sound right to you? When I put the VIN into Carfax and Autocheck they both say "0 records". Any other way I can get vehicle history on this car?   Thanks.
#2226 of 2231 Starter? by aconroy Sep 21, 2009 (11:46 am)
My 2000 9-5 Aero won't start. For the last 4 months, I've noticed an electrical buzz sound just before it turned over. Now it just won't catch when I turn the key. It's not the battery, but I'm wondering if I need a new starter, a solenoid, or both.   Thoughts? Replies to this message: jlamson (Sep 21, 2009 1:04 pm) saab123 (Sep 28, 2009 9:29 pm)

Replying to: aconroy (Sep 21, 2009 11:46 am) Does the starter make a spinning sound like the gear is spinning, and just not popping out to engage the fly wheel? If so, then I'd suspect the starter. It's hard to describe sounds with words, so I'll just say that you should check your connections on the battery as well as on the starter for corrosion. Often times it will make a strange noise, possibly like the one you describe, if it has a dirty, loose, or corroded connection.   I'm not a mechanic per se, but my dad was, and I learned a lot from him over the years, and do most of my own work.   --Jim

Replying to: aconroy (Sep 21, 2009 11:46 am) Likely the crankshaft position sensor. Went out recently on my 2001 lpt. Engine turns but does not catch or catches intermittently. Part is about $200 + labour.   Saabnet.com is also a very useful bulletin board
#2229 of 2231 2000 9.5 heater problems by cdyoung Sep 29, 2009 (6:09 am)
2000 model V-6 heat won't work after air conditioning is turned on. Vacuum line on bypass valve is taken off and put back on then heat will work again. Have changed bypasss valve on firewall and have calibrated heater control panel no success. Everytime I pull the vacuum line and re-connect it I can get heat but then if you go to AC and then back to heat... no heat. Any help is greatly appreciated
#2230 of 2231 Headlamps question. by maxszn Oct 03, 2009 (7:54 pm)
Just bought a 2006 9-5 from dealer. asked why there are 4 headlight and only the outboard lights come on. They came up with a story that the inboard were for other country's and not for the USA. Also while driving at night, there is a light that is like a spot light shinning on the roadside ( shinning for deer??) Dealer is suppose to check that next week. Any thoughts ??
