Distr. all
9-3, 900

Noise from the upper part of the windshield
Cars Affected
*Saab 9-3, 900 and 9000 models*
Background
*On some 9-3, 900 or 9000 models, a whistling noise can arise coming from the center, upper part of the windshield. This complaint is usually generated at higher speeds and is more likely to occur during hot weather.*
Material:
Double-sided tape: 74 97 357*
*5 pieces required per car - 10 pieces supplied
Teroson cleaner FL (1 liter): 30 15 815 or equivalent degreasing product
Action
In the case of customer complaint, the noise can be eliminated by fastening double-sided tape between the upper part of the windscreen trim and the roof panel.
If this procedure is done in conjunction with a windshield change, the tape should not be divided (see point 3) but should be used as it is on the card.
1 Lift the trim from the upper part of the windshield. See Figure.
2 Clean the edge of the roof panel and the surface of the trim where it makes contact with the panel using Teroson cleaner FL or equivalent degreasing product.
3 Divide the tape while it is still attached to the card. See Figure.
4 Center the first tape in the middle and then place two pieces of tape close together on either side of the center one.
5 Refit the trim.
