Ok so I'm out here in the rain polishing my #Saab 9-3 trunk lid in preparation for new rear plate.
Also, new center badge both front and rear is now installed.
Will try to fix he parking brake situation, fuel filter and new plates tomorrow. That should pretty much make it ready for inspection 😎
Yay, lots of goodies for the 9-3 arrived today from Maptun. Hopefully this should make it roadworthy again 😀 fuel filter, parking brake cables, US Corner lights, oil, oil filter, wiper blades, parking brake Springs, etc.

A taste of what's to come with my 2000 #Saab 9-3 2.0TS Coupe. Just got my Compomotive MO1776 wheels installed on it for the first time 👌🏻

Saab will build four corvettes of this type for the Swedish Navy
www.defensemirror.comGot a late 90s Pioneer head unit installed into the #Rotten9000 last night. ISO adapter harnesses for these cars are somewhat hard to find in Sweden now so I made my own. #Saab
#Rotten9000 engine is back together and first test drive done. Had to turn back home quickly as there was a very bad noise from front left brake.
Turns out the front discs weren't that good... Got new ones on there now.
Also changed spark plugs and fuel filter. #Saab
We did a very quick polish on the rear of the #Rotten9000 just to show the potential of the car a bit. Still looks like shit, but a lot better! #Saab
More progress on the sad #Rotten9000 today. We're currently reinstalling the popped freeze plug. Had to remove the intake manifold, starter, IAC, wiring, fuel rail, etc to get to it. Sigh.

Kivasti kalustoa ja ihan kohtuu keli wanhojen Saabien tapaaminen wst Hyvinkäällä #Saab
We finally have the parts needed to get the #Rotten9000 ready for it's first test drive (hopefully).
Used PS pump, new water pump, 2 new pulleys, new belt, PS fluid, coolant, oil filter, oil, fuel filter, wiper blades and fuel filter mounting hardware. #Saab
I just had a look at one of Sweden's 14 remaining #Saab 9000 CD V6 with manual transmission. Took no photos, but:
1. Ambassador blue, sadly.
2. 1995 CDE Griffin, fully loaded (full leater, power seats, wood panels, sunroof, etc)
3. B308i, 211hp V6 engine, broken. Not sure what's wrong.

This is how the #Rotten9000 looked when I stopped working on it last night. I'm tearing the interior apart to rip out all aftermarket electronics (alarm, telephone, crossovers, speakers, amplifier wiring) and make sure the OE wiring, fuses, etc is OK/intact. #Saab
Meanwhile, Johan is working on the interior of the #Rotten9000. Cleaning carpets, etc.
We also discovered that the power steering pump is broken and missing it's pulley 🙃 #Saab
Summer is finally coming. And I have the day off from work. 😀
Short drive in the 9000 CDE today in the perfect weather. 👌🏻 Imagine if cars today were this good (and good looking). #Saab

Le mercredi sur POA, c'est la voiture du petit observateur. Cette semaine, c'est la Saab 9000.

youtube.comHere are some interior shots of the car. Another rarity for 9000 MY94: Dual front air bags, was usually just driver's side. #Saab #SavingSaabs
Hahah, this thing is _SO_ bad. We definitely overpaid for it (because of the rare spec), but oh well. When did you last see a 200hp 9000 CDE Griffin with sunroof?
Kinda excited to see how good we can get it.
#Saab
I try to save at least one #Saab from death every year. That means 2024 too. 🇸🇪
The difference this year is that the effort will be a collaboration between me and my friend Johan.
We bought this rare gem today:
1994 9000 CDE Griffin 2.3T 200hp AT
Been sitting since 2002(!) ~180K Km

We went out for a little cruise around town in my lovely #Saab 9000 tonight. Such a good feeling.
Still a bit to be desired with wheel fitment etc but slowly getting there.

I really, really like the 2006-2010 #Saab 9-5 interior. Nowhere close as fancy as other (especially Euro ones) cars from that era, which makes it even more special (apart from the nice looking design, that is).
Hmm just did an oil change on my #Saab 9000. Not sure if it has a blown head gasket or if the crazy condensation we experienced in the workshop this winter is the cause of the goop that came out..
I've been having issues with my 9-5 Aero going lean when driving lately.
Suspected fuel pressure regulator issue, so today I changed to a BioPower FPR (to better handle the E85) from the junkyard on my lunch break. Car seems to work great now! #Saab

I sandblasted 3 things today for my #Saab 9000.
The OE paint on the DIC was real tough to get rid of.
Nowadays, thanks to the community, we can have working ethanol content (M=74%) and fuel temperature (M=8C) in our #Saab 9-5 SIDs.
Alternator on my #Saab 9-5 Aero died on my way home from work a few days ago. About to change it now, which is a bit of a process on these cars, sadly.
