With chinese tech2s available and various very sketchy garages working on SAABs since some "official" SAAB garage may not be found nowhere nearby, this is a very good information. Check it after every work done on the car. It also works with the old generation of 93 and 95.

Took my Wife's C1 for MoT - one of the number plate lights was out. Ggggrrr!!! Still passed. Why? Because it's a pass as long as there is at least one working. Result! Still got to fix it, of course, but saves me going back.

@@CycloneCyd I'm really sorry to hear about your JLR treatment, the global automotive industry is in it's biggest ever mess, I often wonder that the Swedish government saw the writing on the wall with Saab, and chose not to fund the manufacturing as they had done historically. I wasn't aware of the JLR move, of course the media have a bigger story just now. Where would I find an accurate representation of the ins and outs ? Good luck, these wee how to's are excellent.

when adding new, you actually need all of your old ones with you, that you want to remain programmed.

Hi Cyd, I’ll need to buy 2 extra complete keys but the blades keys that comes along with the fob are most of the times with bad design so the handle leaves a gap between the fob and the blade when assembled plus a bit o play so the blade jiggles when you shake the fob, and they’re made of hard plastic, not rubber coated as my keys. Do you know where I can source the oem fob with good rubber handle blade keys ? The rubber of my blades is starting to deteriorate and I’d like to replace them. Thank you

Hi Cyclone, FYI, regarding the heat protection of the ECU. A kit is supplied here in Aus that does the job well, (and has some vibration protection too) I had it fitted to my 2006 by John at JB Prestige in Melbourne. Seems a good product. I found another Saab-ie has posted about it, and I attach the link. All the best from Sydney, (ex Nottm , so not far from your part of the world at a guess :) r's kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y8-kYLhov7GUpZs.html

@@goodgriefmike yeah, I get how this type of failure could be more prevalent in Aus. We do see them here though. Heat is the big enemy. Thes engines are very smooth so vibration shouldn't really be an issue. I might copy their idea with the anti vibe mounts though. I was gonna just use solid studs.
