1991 SAAB 9000 CSE review from UK and Ireland
"A wolf in sheep's clothing!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Traction control system fault @ 102k which failed again @ 107k despite new throttle control unit - very expensive! Also a new potentiometer for the throttle.
On both occasions managed to get car off the road with 'limp-mode'
A.C.C. problems - new condenser coil at 105k.
Turbo problem at 84k.
F/Wheel bearing at 97k.
General comments?
I suppose over 46k miles in 22 months the car is OK, but the cost of spares is very expensive.
Very comfortable, very fast, very safe!
