My 2003 Saab 9-5 Aero 4-cyl Turbo Won't start. However, I have power in car, lights windows and radio works. But it won't turn-over. It could be Starter or Starter Relay. I can't find out

Ok, those systems might still work because the not require as much energy as the starter. Check the Battery Voltage with a good Voltmeter. If below 12, there might be your problem!

Trying to find thermostat on a 2000 Saab 9-5 Aero turbo

Most thermostats are located at the engine end of the upper rad hose. Rarely some thermostats are at the engine end of the lower rad hose but unlikely. Certain VW's have that distinction.Let me know if this helps.Moe

2006 9-3ss 2.0T petrol, runs OK but not as it should. Turbo seems to spool up OK but when coming off throttle you dont have that crisp dumping sound as it did. Also travelling at speed (160km/h)and you...

There may be a loose or split intake (Boost) hose.
You may need to have boost pressure checked.
The transmission kicking down may also be caused by low boost pressure as the transmission receives boost pressure, to regulate shift pattern.
Hope this helps.

2000 Saab 9-5 wagen - engine stops

Sounds like your CPS (crankshaft position sensor) is defective. It is a cheap sensor $75ish and only takes 30min max to R&R. Both the 4 cylinder turbo and 6 cylinder turbo have this sensor (different sensor, same concept) You can also check the function of your FPR (fuel pressure regulator) by sucking on the vacuum line attached to the intake manifold. It should hold vacuum without leaking down.

Saab 9-3 1999 convertible

On 1999 9-3 models there is a fuel filter located under the pass rear door. However if this was plugged it would not kick back in after a short time. Typical suspects are crankshaft position sensor which will work well on a cold engine and intermittently cut off and on when the engine is hot. Its a cheap sensor, and very easy to change. Possibly check condition of spark plugs and the DI cassette as well. Also check function of Fuel pressure regulator. Any fault codes stored (CEL on?)
