i have a 4.5 month old 9.3 linear and since about 1800 miles the performance has degraded...car has 5300 miles (mostly highway). issues:
~ idle can sit as low as 700rpm...even after the car has warmed...at
times it is at 900rpm (what i would expect)
~ muffle is load on cold start up...goes away ~3 minutes later
~ accel. between 40-70 mph is poor/bogs down (need to jam on the gas
to "go")...jr air filter has made it a bit more responsive, but
still not what i would expect from the turbo
~ put in a sport exhaust...looks better/sounds cool...no performance
difference...realy didn't expect it
~ switched from mobil to shell gas...noticed a slight diff., but not
noticable perf. increase
~ used techron cleaner at ~3700K...no improvement
~ T8 software upgraded...no improvement
so after all this i am still not happy w/this car's performance...my 3rd saab! anything else worth trying that won't voide my warranty? would
the NGK BCPR6ES-11 plugs gapped to 0.037"/20ft.lbs help?
thanks in advance,
dan
