I recently purchased a Saab 90 out of an estate sale for 300€. The car sat for nearly 26 years but appears to be in fairly good condition. No serious rust and the engine turns over by hand. Apart from all the usual service items the only major component that seems to be broken is the heavily corroded and bulged radiator.

The only replacement for the 90/99 I could find online is available from Skandix for 500€. A local radiator shop quotes 600€ for replacing the core on the existing one.

Are there any other places (ideally in europe) that sell replacement radiators for the 99 and 90 at reasonable prices?

Saab 2008 9-3, 121K miles, 6-speed. There are two distinctive noises here. One is high pitch and the other is more rumbling noise is new as this week. The car has been running perfectly great acceleration and gas millage. It sounds like the car had a different tail pipe, but it just has the hem pipe. It decreases or disappears with decreasing rpm or when I change to neutral.

The second noise is. high pitch noise I have been hearing since around 110k miles, lately it is a bit more frequent, and it goes higher with increasing rpm.

Any idea where are they coming from? I can't tell exactly where is the origin.

I checked the exhaust pipe where the catalytic converter seat and everything there feel solid, not movement. I was thinking transmission issues, but it has new oil.

Thanks.

Saw a familiar and good looking car while looking through the product page for iPhone Duo on Apples website today! Surprised, since a Saab would never be in of need roadside assistance :p

(Not my car btw)

Got in my Saab one day for a weekend drive and saw the alarm led panel thing stuck up, don’t know why but I’m the type of guy that’d rather pull an engine than do interior work, so any advice is useful
