My 6/2001 Saab 9 3 will be repaired for the 5th time in 5 months. First a nozzle, thta injects the diesel, has been replaced. 10 days later all of them were replaced because i had the same problem (Motor in emergency-mode, max. 2200rpm) In Summer i had howling noises and they replaced the part of the exhaust, that is attached to the motor/turbo (german:Auspuffkr¸mmer) After that i had differend howling noises and they replaced the turbo. And this weekend i had the motor-lamp/emergency mode Problem again. I¥m very glad to have the extendend warranty, but this is getting annoying. I¥ve had these problems between April and now and between 28000 and 35500 km with the car. I¥m thinking of ending my leasing contract, if Saab is not able to fix the motorproblems. Has anyone else similar problems with the diesel? thx, Christian
