    This particular video shows the job on the passenger side. If you are doing it on the driver's side, some transmission fluid will be lost, so be sure to get a quart before doing the job. Luckily this axle was not seized, so everything came loose with a few sharp blows. If yours doesn't move upon a solid hit, use the nut trick to avoid mushrooming the end of the axle.

    Wouldn't it be a good idea to put a little anti-seize on the driveshaft splines prior to installation to make removal a little easier?

    I have a 1999 9-5, can you advise how the process is different? Maybe a diagram, links if not able to film it for YT? Also what is the part for the 99 vs for your later machine? I am seeing listings some of which have axle shafts out both ends, some of which have a tripod joint on the inside. Which to order? What difference?
    Also if you lose ATF on the driver's side, is it reasonable to catch it in a basin and re-add? I heard that there might be a conflict on what fluid to use and that different fluids don't mix.

    whew, man really thanks a whole for the video, was a big help for this project. I plan to do drivers side next week. My wife owns an 03' 95 so this video worked perfect for me. So yeah nobody here in lynchburg even sells an e20 inverted torx! I managed to bust em with a 16mm but wow it took a lot of torque. I ended up replacing those bolts to something i will actually have a tool for lol. any videos on a/c compressor replacements? Thanks again i will definetly be subscribing

Now it is also happening when moving from stop/low speed to some acceleration( all this I can only hear at low speeds, could be happening at higher speeds, not sure). Is this because of CV/Axle joint issues or what else could it be? Any insight is much appreciated. Thank you.

    When installing the new axle, it's not a good idea to hit the axle with the hammer which can damage the threads on the axle. Use the old nut on the axle and you won't damage the threads. The new nut is a lock nut which should thread on at least half way by hand then gets tight where the oblong portion of the nut is.

    I have a 2004 Saab 95 and just changed the cv axle that was just about to break, but on the wheel hub bearing, I didn't get the wheel hub bearing replaced cause that bad boy was stuck in there like it was pressed in. I'm gonna give it another try when I do the other side cv axle. Any advice on how to get it out, or should I just take off the hole hub and take it to a machine shop and let them do it? Thanks for any help.

    • @Eeuroparts
      @Eeuroparts  6 років тому

      Safety glasses, lots of heat, and a big hammer. The sharp shock is usually more helpful than the slow torque application of a puller on stuck and rusted parts. Soak the mating surfaces in penetrating oil first, just remember to have good ventilation when applying heat by means of torch.

      It might be possible, but in general it would be much easier to just buy one already equipped. AWD 9-3's are very low in price right now compared to the cost it would take to buy the parts separately.

      @christopheralder2666 5 років тому

      Based on the year, I wouldn't think that your lights are xenon. But I have the same problem with my 08 9-5 aero xenon headlights. Based on my research and speaking with a local Saab automotive technician, the ballast is what needs to be replaced for each headlight, which I think is only for xenon headlights. I have read the seals break around the ballast and that allows moisture into it which makes sense based on the flickering when I accelerate, break, go over bumps, I can just picture small water droplets moving around inside the ballast causing all sorts of quirky electrical problems, which my car has. But I've also read it could be the voltage regulator in the alternator, which I just replaced a couple days ago and haven't noticed the flickering yet, but I expect it to show up soon. Sorry I can't tell you where the grounds are as I don't know anything about cars really. I'm learning as I go on my Saab. But I would think anything metal on the engine would be considered a ground, but don't quote me on that. Do more research on that:)

    • @christopheralder2666
      @christopheralder2666 5 років тому

      Weird. I wish I could give you a good idea. I gather you havent tried to clean the connections yet? Maybe that will be the fix when you do that. Do they flicker when you try other high demanding electrical things, like defrost, seat heaters, ac? If so, have your alternator checked. Also try to look at your positive battery cable for corrosion, especially where it connects to the alternator down below. I've read that the cables can corrode on the inside where it's hard to see the corrosion which causes the current to not be reached and causes heat to build up. I just replaced mine cuz I've had 3 alternators go out in the last 2 years. I saw melting at the connection point to the alternator this time which means too much current is going thru too little cable and heating up. All of this is my theory, cuz like I said Idk anything about cars really. I'm still a beginning learner even tho I'm an old fart

      @@christopheralder2666 at the battery no but my cable from the alternator to the battery was cut when I bought the car I fixed it by twisting and taping it but I know I need to replace it. I install car sound systems so I'm about to do what's called the big 3 upgrade and I'll be running 2 new 0gauge lines from the alternator and new 0gauge grounds to the engine and frame plus 0gauge ground for the alternator. So after that is upgraded next spring I'll upgrade all the rest of the grounds to 0 gauge wire.

    I did this and had MAJOR clicking when I went to test drive it. (couldn't make it more than 1 foot before it sounded like it was breaking the car, so left it there)
    I imagine I didn't hammer the axle into the transmission hard enough (I just pushed fit it by hand).
    HOPING I didn't break any threads in the transmission area, hoping if I broke anything, it was the axle. (only $80 and pretty easy to replace)

    • @Eeuroparts

      Definitely double check everything is situated correctly and that nothing is binding up. It is possible the axle is defective. If you bought it at eEuroparts.com, contact us to set up a replacement return under our new Parts for Life program, which is a limited lifetime warranty on nearly all parts we sell!

    Too bad that Axle is of POOR quality . Rebuilding (clean /grease/ reboot) the original axle is FAR better
    AWARE?? that the outer CV joint is designed to be separated (C CLIP) to make servicing of it painless. NO need to remove the axle.
