Nice quick video. Try to keep your mood up. Sometimes times are tough, but at least you have your health. Greetings from Sweden.
Thanks for the kind words 😊
Excellent video! Thank you. I just followed your instructions to replace the o-ring and crankshaft seal. A couple of things I had trouble with was my 7" circlip pliers were not wide enough, so I reccomend buying the biggest pair available. I used an angle grinder to increase the width they open. The other thing was the 1/2" extension bar to take the slack out of the drivebelt. I wasn't sure what I was looking for. It's basically a square hole you slide the bar into and pull it towards the front of the car like a one arm bandit. The crankshaft seal was easy to replace. I used a vernier caliper to measure recess depth (2.5mm). Flipped the old one out with a flat head screwdriver. Cleaned. Pushed new one down with wood to create even load until flush. Used old seal and wood to push down to 2.5mm recess. It has a stop to prevent further recess, but knowing when to stop pushing is helpful. Hardest bit is the circlip.
Definitely appreciate this upload! This is probably one of the most common places the B235 engines leak oil from. Impact wrench definitely comes in handy for removing the bolt on the harmonic balancer.
Definitely! Lol
Nice, straight forward video. I just ordered the seal and the o ring.
Well that looks easy enough. I've got the o-ring and crank seal but been putting of the actual work. Than you for this video!
Happy to help!
This video is gonna save my Saab. Thanks for this man
🫡🙌🏼
That is actually a really easy job!
Planning to do that and replace the pump housing this winter on the Viggen. Thanks!
That hatch is running great! Love that OG exhaust sound!
Yep! It wasn’t too bad at all thankfully! :)
Why do you keep calling it YOUR 9-5? That baby belongs to all of us in some ways . . . we've been there with you from the beginning!!! 😊
Hahaha. It’s our 9-5 😌
Very good video! Very cool work! Thank you!! 👍🏻😊
Thanks!
Might have to be doing that job myself pretty soon, thanks 👍
👍🏼👊🏼
Just did this job! Only had to run to the store twice while working on the car 😂
Cool 9-3!!!!
It’s pretty sick!
Good video. I am not able to remove the oil pump cover though. It is stuck hard. It rocks slightly from side to side but it is stuck. I tried a pry bar like you did but it does not want to budge. Any ideas? Thanks
i just bought a beautfilly preservered 2008 saab 93 aero. very excited to keep up with it. got it at a steal I think and can even flip for at least 1k but I want to keep it haha
Up to you man!
youve really made a whole channel around saabs and to repay you they keep having issues, hoping ur luck turns around soon
Lol yep. Ugh thanks!!
Yo bro! Is it really necessary to remove the engine bracket mount? It seems like one can get away without that step? 🤔
Nice job!! Mine blew on my 95 on the highway on my way home from work. She didn’t leave me stranded and got us both home. Needed to buy an impact wrench to do this job though. Pretty easy I must say for such an important ant seal. Oh, I had to pack grease in the pump to get the oil flowing again. How did you get it flowing?
Thanks! I didn’t do anything relating to that on my 9-5. Just started it and drove it
"Finally a video that ends on a positive note!"
Also "I'm having a stroke." 😂
Hahaha
I love all of your videos.. I have a 2006 93 V6 that I need to remove the oil pan for rod bearings inspection. I can't find anything on what is required to remove to get the oil pan out. (Oil filter assembly, crank pulley, etc). Please help.. Thank you

Nice vid. Good content. Did u sell her yet?
Yes I have! thanks
That's what I'm doing I had to change the harmonic balancer and the bolt while at it I'm changing the front seal
Nice
So what should I do if the part that has the oil pump seal on it wouldn’t go in
And I kinda made it go in and now my oil pump isn’t working
Did you notice increased engine vibration on idle while these seales were leaky. My hypothesis is that the leaking oil gets smeared on serpentine belt and causes it slip occasionally giving different load on engine. I am wondering if this is a case.
not that i can remember
Cool vid, I wonder if you can skip taking off the engine mount bracket.
Have you found out about that?
Hey buddy I have an 07 9-3 2.0t I just replaced the valve cover gasket and it’s still blowing thick smoke from tail pipe. And there is light smoke coming from under heat shield of turbo when giving gas. Any ideas
If you have thick smoke it’s either oil burning in the combustion chamber or coolant which sounds like a head gasket not the valve cover. It’s also possible an oil seal somewhere on the turbo. If you have a major loss in power your turbo is blown hence the smoke
@@mattpfarr5992 it only has low acceleration up to 20 mph then drives normally only when coming from a stop it has low power I replaced plugs and coils cause I had a p1349 code now I’m just getting random misfire code p0300 so if I fix the turbo seals I should be good? Burning a lot of oil from cam seals so ima replace them but how do I clean out the combustion chamber
@@johntafoya2544 don’t drive the car till repair (if possible). Random missfire can F up the engine pretty quickly.
I wonder if the turbo is bad. You’d need to take that heat shield off to investigate further tho
@@AutoAutopsy the turbo is fine it kicks in like normal and doesn’t get red hot I think it might just be an oil line
Wait… What do you mean you think you have the glowing turbo issue partially fixed?!? That shit’s been keeping me up at night
I discussed it in the video I did previously on this car. Gonna be driving it all week this week to see how it is before I go to sell it!
If you sell the 9-5 wagon, will you need another project Saab besides the Turbo X?
Nope. I have too many projects which is the entire reason I’m selling haha
@@AutoAutopsy 👍
Why not show how you did the timing belt or put the motor mount back on :/
Dont stop ... Your videos are in a way like educating. Mix with some funny momments . i have to do the harmonic balancer on my 05 Arc put my pic upside down idlk the world doesnt makd sense anymore ... Theres a new trend here in cali witj the police pulling people over for tinted window they can only be 10 percent cover.. But the police dure can have them..
Thanks! SMH that’s stupid
Is that rain?
Bet that is a rare occurrence out there.
Very much so 😂
I‘d buy the 9-5 instantly if you could only deliver it to Austria xD
Darn…wish I could get it there for free! Lol
Hei.
Exhaust too hot = EGT too high.
Too high EGT = not enough fuel !!!
- check AFR (Air Fuel Ratio) while driving (it should be around 11)
- check the injection time corrections
- check the fuel pump
- check the knock sensor.
!!! Your engine has insufficient fuel !!!
Good luck 👍
👍🏼
Heeeeeey
Hi Steve 😅😅😅
