Transmission dipstick 1996 Saab 900 s manual

SOURCE: 93 Saab 900 manual transmission is seizing

check the fluid ( reg oil 5 w 30 or 10 w 30 )by checking the check point when the car is cold ( not run for 6 hours) on the passenger side bold under the exhaust manifold. I think it is 19 mm. you should have 3 quarts. Also there is a filter on the rear cover that has a magnetic trap that needs to be replaced. Also you need the rear gasket if you are taking that panel off. dont reuse paper gaskets! they will always fail.

in that transmission shift gear first, then give gas. it is not very forgiving.

SOURCE: 96 Saab 900 Clutch Cable: Manual vs Self-Adjusting

just get the manually adjustable one. I just replaced mine today and I have a 96 900SE. the new clutch feels better and you only have to adjust it when the pedal has alot of "slack". that means that the pedal can be depressed about and inch before it starts operating the cable. anything more than an inch needs adjustment

The filter is behind the pump, and is not serviceable without pulling the transmission. Someone posted a picture of a filter for the ZF transmission in a 9000. your transmission is an aisin warner.

SOURCE: reading the gauge on the oil dipstick 1998 saab 900

The dip stick end should have a plastic square piece with two roundish bulbs on each end. The oil level should read just at the bottom of the top bulb (the bulb nearest the yellow cap at the top end of the dip stick). This indicates full. A level reading anywhere between the two bulbs is adequate but not optimal. Oil below the top end of the bottom bulb, means 1 quart low, and no oil at all on the bottom bulb means get some oil in there double quick.
