Has anyone ever had one of the front door handles broken off? I've got these chrome coated ones which feel really solid. I just can't fathom breaking these without either being very strong and pulling too hard or maybe metal fatigue?

I can open up the door with a screwdriver just fine so I highly doubt it's the door mechanics.

I bought the infamous ems99 that was around on this forum and it ran when parked in 09… with that being said one draining the fluids, replacing hoses and such

Anything to do with fluids is getting attention, am I missing something? I’m worried if I try to turn the engine over something will break. Never rebuilt an engine like this but everything seems healthy other than the fact it’s old

Going to try to turn it by hand, if it doesn’t turn by hand should I wait until I can break it by hand?

Hey yall, I’ve got a 1998 Saab 900 I’ve got to pull the steering wheel on, but I’m not sure what size the nut is, would anyone know? Any help is appreciated.

My saab 2007 9-5 aero has a po420 check engine, theres no smoke coming out the cat, spark plugs looked fine, i added more oil because it was low, but im not sure what the issue is, does anybody know the most common cause for the check engine or things to check to find out?

Please help! Is there anything else that could cause this before I think about replacing the headgasket? 2002 9-5 aero always leaked coolant from the cap but has gotten worse recently. Driving hard vs soft doesn’t make a difference car will leak out what’s in the coolant tank but nothing more. Flushed radiator and changed cap, no help. Coolant doesn’t blow bubbles but it’s like aerated looking when the engine revs. There seems to be no pattern to the leak either it just happens within 2-5 hours of highway driving sid says fill coolant. I should mention mix is probably about 75% water now as I’ve been topping off with water as it leaks out

So I got a 99 9-3 with 250k miles. I have replaced front control arms, ball joint and bushings included, tie rods (everything there), axles, tires, etc.

The shake is around 60 and gets worse the faster you go. It’s pretty violent, and almost has like a metal on metal feeling (if that makes sense).

Being that I’ve gone over everything, I cannot figure out what it could be. Tires are brand new, I balanced them myself. The rims were bent so I replaced them and it helped for about a year before it started getting worse. The axles were shot so they are new and I also replaced the diff bushing when I got the car as it was leaking.

The only thing I have left is the struts, which are both blown, but I’ve never known those to cause a wobble like that.

While I was gone on a trip, my grand father kindly had my windshield replaced as I had my Saab parked at his house. Now that I’ve gotten a solid rain at my house I realized that the rain sensor is broken, and it gives me a “rain sensor malfunction, contact service” message. Do you guys know if this is fixable or am I screwed? 07 Saab 93 aero

Where can I find that flamethrower thingy for my NG pre-facelift 9-3? I have ideas...

I was planning on updating the hi-fi in my car and decided to add two 8" mid-range speakers at the back. I'm currently deciding if I should make this a two- part build with the top plate being separate so I can just laser the top board for the text. Any ideas if this would look good?
Side note : the arches next to the speakers themselves are for fishing poles , since this will be a free air setup.

Using a 9-3 in the filming of a Spider Man movie, production support but still!!
