Subject: Re: 2000 Saab 95 transmission fluid smell ================= Well I would say that all engines I have ever come across leek at some point. My 85 900 all original seals leaks slightly with 3 or 4 drips on the ground in the morning. The 9000t has all new seals and still gives a drip every few days. That said it should not leak enough to stink up the cabin.
Thoughts. Yes petrol fumes are considered toxic, but at specific parts per million, smell itself is not toxic. Though I donāt have a 9-5 I assume it draws the fresh air from below the windshield area and should draw fresh air not engine compartment air. I would also try http://www.alldata.com/ to see
if there are any bulletins on this issue, I looked briefly and saw a few things that could be related. I donāt know if the 9-5 has a pressure regulator like a regular gm train.
I would look for a different wrench guy or gal, someone who knows Saabs in and out, I would also check the cabin air filter and replace. A good Saab tech should be able to tell you whatās wrong and how much with little or no up front cost and leave the decision to you. And let the tech know another person thinks rear trani gasket. If you let people on the list know where you are they may b able to recommend a shop or mechanic in your area. Also try the Saturday chat when a tech or two are online.
Cheers.
