1991 Saab 9000 Transmission Q&A

  • What happens when you "ride" your Saab's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Saab 9000? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your 9000’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your 9000 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my 9000 transmission fluid need to be checked? Maintaining your Saab 9000 transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Saab, so check with your technician first. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can my Saab 9000 leak transmission fluid? Yes. Saab 9000 transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems.
