2009 Saab 9-5 Engine Q&A

  • Why does the check engine light in my 9-5 turn on when I start my car? Generally, your check engine light turning on upon ignition is not a bad thing. This is just your 9-5 testing its circuits. The light should go off shortly. Bring your vehicle in if it doesn't.

Whistling could mean a belt is misaligned or there's an intake leak. Squealing may be caused by a loose fan belt, and grinding might be a sign of brake problems rather than engine issues.
  • What could damage a Saab engine? [ordered-list-1-item-3-1]Are you unknowingly damaging your Saab 9-5 engine? Some driving habits are not so great for your engine. These include driving on a near-empty gas tank, flooring the gas pedal while the car is in Park, or accelerating too quickly, too soon. Help sustain your engine’s performance and efficiency by staying miles away from these bad driving practices.
  • Can I use water in my Saab 9-5 radiator? It’s not recommended you put water in your 9-5 radiator unless it’s an emergency. Under normal circumstances, use a 50/50 mix of water and coolant or a pre-mixed coolant. But, if you need to keep driving while out of coolant, using water is better than driving with an empty coolant reservoir.
