i drive a 9000 T16 and my engine is warm when the tempmeter is almost on the half of meter. he stay there no matter what you do. do you know that your turbowheel makes 30.000rpm?? and more when you have tune up the turbo pressure? so thats why i have reply on the movie. saab engines are strong when you use them normal! ;-)
@lechistani Temperature gauge malfunction (drooping needle) is very common on later model 9000's and can normally be fixed by simply tightening the screws behind the gauge.
@lechistani Is petrol or diesel? Does it smoke, or does the oil just disappear? If it smokes, I would suspect the turbo. 9-5's usually have the Garrett GT17 and it is not that reliable, it's been known to fail even on cars with less than 100tkm on the clock. The Mitsubishi used on Aeros is much more reliable.
@Mawerick77: it's 2,3 litre petrol. turbo seems to be ok. the oil disappears, and that happens mostly when the car is run in tough conditions (say around 5000rpm, or around 200km/h).
ican't see any black smoke, althou the exhaust pipe is black on the inside, so it has traces of oil
@lechistani Ok. Trionic 7 engines, specially the early versions often have sticking piston rings, which causes excessive oil consumption. If the engine seems to otherwise be running good, I'd probably give a shot with Forte engine flush treatment.
no its not. it has stage 2 chip, 2,5'exhaust, and a gearbox from 2,0 turbo with different ratio (faster acceleration). It gives around 240-250BHP and 410nM
man that's some instant spool up on the turbo. any mods?

@Mawerick77 Yeah, and DI cartriges on 9-5s are awful.I can prove that the 9-5 turbos fail before 100,000 miles.
