Hello from Australia I have a 2003 model 2.0T petrol car Auto..
car has 95000kms only or about 60,000miles on it and good service history when I bought it.
Drove for 3 months no problems, touring,,open road driving city driving and one day all lights came on dash panel,
ABS out TRACTION CONTROL OUT, STABILITY CONTROL OUT, ENGINE LIGHT ON ,, service lights on I freaked out as the car was still driving fine...no limp home mode,,after 1/2 hour the lights went out and I drove home,, the lights came on the next day and went out soon after,, still driving ok..
2 days later car goes into limp home mode and engine light comes on,,, saab diagnose the car ant T8 and Throttle body give codes to say replace botyh items.
I bought a second hand T8 had it reflashed to suit my car and bought a throttle body and had saab use the Tech 2 and we kept getting throttle body codes,, it was changed for a 3rd unit and then the T8 went into limp mode again and we installed a 2nd T8 and it ran for 1 day then it failed again.
Codes again T8 and throttle body both codes..
A fresh T8 was installed and it lasted 3 days and again limp home mode again.
Codes indicate T8 and throttle body again,
We changed the throttle pedal and all was good for 5 days then T8 codes again.
\Car has had 3 T8,s and 3 throttle bodies,, 1 fly by wire pedal and all codes cleared.
Im using a borrowed T8 for 1 week and its gone into limp home mode 2 times.
Both times the battery terminal is removed by me and its ok for a few days again.
Engine light comes on everytime and the limp home mode comes and goes.
The instruments work fine all the time and I am thinking the ABS unit could have an electronic issue.
That keeps giving us same codes,,
We did have an ABS unit code 1 time 2 days ago but the car drove ok but engine light is on but drives ok,, no issues.
This car is a joke,,,,,i had a perfect 2001 95 T I just sold,,it was fully sorted..
This low milage 93 is a heap of S**t
can you help me.
Saab serve at Parramatta has been helping me and im going broke throwing money at this car.
The guys there are pretty good and I trust them fully
