97 9000t CSE manual 100k
Im experiencing the same kind of problem as steve was/still is. it is now 2006, however.
Poor performance, that pleasing 2200rpm torque band is not there.
I have to hold it in the same gear for ages to accellerate at any considerable rate.
poor fuel economy, about 80 miles less to a tank despite economical driving
HORRIBLE, UGLY labouring noise on accelleration, its like the turbo isnt there.
it cant be the DI box, it doesnt die at certain revs or misfire.
New stock plugs.
Saab dealer says the turbo feels free but agrees that the performance is flat.
I dont want to spend £80 /hour on diagnostics.
Please help,
Dan N
