We recently purchased a saab 93, 1999. It is a 4cyl. auto and starts, runs really well. It has about 75k on it.
1)There is a ticking or tapping noise, I suspect lifters, and I am trying to find ways of solving the problem. What weight synthetic oil does this car require? Is 0w40 or 5w-40 ok? I read somewhere that dropping the oil pan and cleaning a screen somewhere can help with oil starvation, what manuals can I use to help me with this kind of project or should I start somewhere else?
2) A clunk in the front drivers side wheel area has started when hitting bumps, I suspect bushing of some sort. how can I check this? I jacked up that side of the car and everything looks to be ok but I am unfimiliar with saabs.
Thanks
