2001 Saab 9-3 Se Hatchback 4-door 2.0l on 2040-cars
Joliet, Illinois, United States
|
Up for sale is a low mileage Saab 9-3. I would describe the mechanical condition as being good but some issues need to be addressed. The engine, trans, and turbo all work fine. Blows cold A/C and the heat works fine. Some items that were just replaced. Has a new Serpentine Belt, Idler pulley, tires have less than 5k on them. It does have an oil leak. I was told that the Valve Cover Gasket needs to be replaced and I actually have the gasket. This is an easy fix if you like to work on cars or not very expensive if you take it to a mechanic. The Valve Cover gasket is right on top of the engine. The thermostat also needs to be replaced and I have that also. Body condition I would say good with some flaws. The driver's side front bumper does have some marks from being swiped in a parking lot, captured in pics. Also some small rust spots on edge of 2 doors. Interior is ok, passenger seat stitching came apart, info display has 90% dead pixels. Radio and temperature controls work but can't see the info. The radio, info display can be replaced with parts from ebay or Saab junk yard. All power windows work, 2 power locks are broke. The arm on the hatchback also needs to be replaced or a part needs to be fixed. I have been using a broom stick to hold up the hatchback if needed. Questions, I will try to answer the best I can.

Son surprises mom with her dream car, a 1973 Saab 99
Wed, Aug 13 2014Often, it feels like the news is just a never-ending stream of one depressing headline after another. It can be so liberating to see something positive and uplifting every once in a while. Just look at the ecstatic expression on this mother's face after receiving her dream car from her son. Mom has some seriously quirky taste too: she isn't after a muscle car or a two-seat droptop; instead, it's a 1973 Saab 99 EMS in a very '70s shade of copper at the top of her wish list. According to the video, it took her son about a year to track down this hunk of Swedish steel and save up the money to purchase it. Though, judging from his mom's reaction, it was worth every penny. She puts together what's going on with the Saab pretty quickly and immediately starts swearing at her son – out of love, of course. If you're feeling a little blue, consider this a much-needed pick-me-up. Watching the unbridled joy of someone getting something that they always wanted just feels wonderful.
3 former Saab execs charged with tax evasion
Mon, 20 May 2013The Associated Press reports three former Saab executives have been arrested on charges of accounting fraud. Swedish prosecutor Olof Sahlgren has refused to identify the individuals, but says they're suspected of attempting to evade taxes by falsifying Saab accounts between 2010 and 2011 during the Spyker years. Other reports indicate the parties involved include former General Counsel to Saab Kristina Geers (seen to the left of former CEO Victor Muller, above), a 15-year-veteran of the company - her husband, Eric, was the company's communications director for 9 years as well.
Saab filed for bankruptcy in 2011, and was purchased shortly thereafter by National Electric Vehicle Sweden. If convicted, the trio could face up to four years in prison for their crimes under Swedish law.
GM recalling 250,000 SUVs over door electronics
Mon, 20 Aug 2012After a door-fire investigation that dates back to February, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially announced a recall today that affects around 250,000 General Motors SUVs for a faulty driver's door module. The recall applies to the Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7X from the 2006 and 2007 model years, as well as the 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL for vehicles sold and/or registered in the Snow Belt.
Road salt use in these midwestern and northern states can lead to corrosion of the driver's door module on these GMT360 and GMT370 vehicles, which allows water to come in contact with the circuit board. If shorted out, the vehicle's power door locks and power windows will not work, and could possibly lead to overheating and, in some circumstances, a fire. No official word on how many total vehicles caught on fire, but back in June, 28 fires had been reported to the government agency. A fix for the problem is still being worked out, but all affected vehicle owners will be notified by GM.
