For Sale is a 2000 Saab 9-5 Aero Wagon. 2.3T high output turbo with 230 horsepower. 5 speed automatic. This is a very rare/hard to find car. I bought this car from the original owners, so I have all the maintenance records from day one, including the original window sticker.
-The odometer display turns on and there is a reading of 114,880 miles.
-The information coming from the engine feeding the ABS ECU (i.e. RPM, speed, distance) is flowing from whatever engine sensors to the ECU. This is apparent because the Speedometer and Tachometer both register correct speeds and RPM’s respectively.
-Yet, the Odometer is stuck at 114,880 miles which leads us (me and my mechanic) that it could be a simple connector or LCD display issue (not the ABS ECU itself but the full issue is unknown).
The Saab Information Display (SID) has a lot of dead pixels (it is still somewhat readable). Also common on these early 9-5's)
The struts to hold up the hood and trunk are old/dont work. I do have a set of trunk struts I will include. I also have a spare window regulator/motor I happened to get.
Otherwise all the features work: keyless entry, power seats, heated seats, sunroof, radio, climate control, CD player/6 CD changer.
The tires are fairly low on tread.
Thats about as much as I know, I am getting rid of the car because it's just more work than I have the time/money to put in. My loss your gain.
The car would probably need to be towed (as the coolant leak is pretty bad).
Im a Saab enthusiast, and this car is trully a gem. I would love for it to go to good hands.
Feel free to message me if you have any questions.

GM SUV window switch recall urges owners to park vehicles outside
Thu, 07 Aug 2014It's not unusual for there to be a lag between an automaker announcing a recall and the official documentation showing up on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website. So it's no surprise that a recent GM campaign took about a month to appear in its official capacity. However, there appears to be some big differences between the two reports with potential safety implications.
In late June, GM announced that it needed to recall 181,984 examples of the Chevrolet Trailblazer, Buick Rainier, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7x from the 2005-2007 model years, plus the 2006 Chevy Trailblazer EXT and 2006 GMC Envoy XL. The new documents paint a slightly different picture with 184,611 needing repaired and different model years listed.
The reason for the fix is still the same, though. It's possible for fluid to contact the master power window switch module in the driver's door, which can corrode the part. Eventually this could cause a short circuit, leaving the buttons inoperable and potentially leading to a fire. But the new NHTSA documents add an important note: "A fire could occur even while the vehicle is not in use. As a precaution, owners are advised to park outside until the remedy has been made."
What brands have Saab owners defected to? Polk investigates
Sun, 02 Sep 2012When a brand goes belly-up, it's natural for analysts to wonder where that brand's consumers will turn. General Motors has mothballed more car brands the last decade than most other automakers' have in their entire portfolios, so "Where did [insert brand here] buyers go?" has been a common question asked of The General. According to reports, it didn't do so well at retaining Oldsmobile owners (who supposedly went to Hyundai), or Hummer and Saturn buyers, but did get some return love from Pontiac owners.
A consultant with Polk has turned the loyalty lens on Saab. The Polk Disposal Loyalty Methodology tracks owners selling vehicles within six months of buying a new one. In 2010 and 2011, Polk found that when Saab died, owners went right up the middle of the mainstream to Honda. It was close, though, with just 0.2 percent separating Honda from number two Volkswagen. Audi comes in third.
After that it's back to the masses with Toyota, Chevrolet and Ford trumping import luxury brands. And if you combine all of the General Motors brands that Saab owners have migrated to, GM more than doubles Honda with a 15.2-percent share, so all the love is not lost.
National Electric Vehicle stops Saab 9-3 production amidst financing woes
Tue, 20 May 2014It seems that quirky, Swedish automaker Saab might be on life support yet again. Its owner, National Electric Vehicle Sweden, has announced that it's reducing its workforce and temporarily halting production of the 9-3 due to financial problems. NEVS was only building six cars a day, anyway.
The company put out a press release admitting its economic woes, but it still appeared hopeful. NEVS claims it's developing "a new platform on the Phoenix architecture," and it has a frame agreement with an international automotive OEM. It didn't give any specific details about either one of these assertions though. According to The Wall Street Journal, NEVS needs the partnership to lower development costs in order to stay afloat. Saab spokesperson Mikael Ostlund told Autoblog in an email that the stop in production of the 9-3 in Trollhättan would last four weeks.
NEVS says it's in negotiation to sell a portion of the company to an automotive company. Its current monetary woes are caused by shareholder Qingbo Investment Company not financing the company as agreed. "We plan to have the results of the discussions at latest during June," said Ostlund.
