SAAB
Early Saabs were basically Vauxhalls, convertibles much sought after recently.

The Drivers Side Door Window is very squeaky when you go over bumps the whole side of the window and door seem to shake. Also the Electric Motors seem to labour winding the window on this side. The LCD Display for the Air Con has started to fail. It seems as if some of the LCD elements fail and then recover. Leaving me with an Air Con display which is sometimes unreadable. The Soft Top Support bar directly over my head squeaks like mad
SAAB turbo versions
A lot of problems with these systems, the most common is failure of the coil pack, this blows and causes misfiring also make sure correct plugs are fitted.
The air mass meters fail quite frequently causing rough idle and very poor acceleration.
Another common fault is with the throttle housing, this is semi fly by wire and causes the engine to stall constantly. Cleaning the throttle sometimes does the trick but often the body will need to be replaced.
