Is fuel tank 3/4 full when you hear these noises?..... Posted by MI-Roger [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Curious question about rear thud noise., RobSaab, Mon, 31 Jan 2005 07:32:23 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
If tank is somewhere around the 3/4 mark you will notice a thud as the fuel sloshes in the tank after a full stop. Saab has a service kit to remove the sound, it involves installing baffles in the fuel tank to stop the fuel movement.
If the sound bothers you a lot, have the baffles installed. If it is only a curiosity factor, you can safely leave things as they are.
