1990 Saab 9000 Engine Q&A

  • Why does the check engine light in my 9000 turn on when I start my car? It's okay if your check engine light comes on when you first start your vehicle. This is just your 9000 testing its circuits. The dash light shouldn't stay on. If it does, you might want to bring your vehicle in for service.
  • Why is my Saab 9000 making engine noise? Strange engine sounds can be a sign something’s off in your Saab 9000. Tapping or knocking could mean you need an oil change. Whistling could mean a belt is misaligned or there's an intake leak. Squealing can be traced back to a loose fan belt, and grinding could be a sign that something is wrong with your brakes — not the engine.
  • What could damage a Saab engine? [ordered-list-1-item-3-1]Are you unknowingly damaging your Saab 9000 engine? Some driving habits are not so great for your engine. These include driving on a near-empty gas tank, revving your engine while the vehicle is in Park, or pushing 'the pedal to the metal' before the engine has warmed up. Protect your engine’s performance and efficiency by distancing yourself from these habits.
  • Can I use water in my Saab 9000 radiator? An emergency is the only time you should consider putting water in your radiator. Outside of that, it’s recommended you use a pre-mixed coolant or a 50/50 blend of water and coolant. However, if you need to continue driving your 9000 when you’re out of coolant, having water in the coolant reservoir is better than nothing.
  • What could cause my 9000 engine to suddenly stop? Your 9000 car engine could stop suddenly due to low fuel, electrical issues, overheating, a faulty ignition system, mechanical troubles, or sensor problems.
