What Does Your Saab 9000 Transmission Do?

Your transmission carries power from the engine to the wheels so that you can drive at the speed you desire. Because of the transmission’s responsibility to translate the right dose of power into the right amount of speed, a small transmission issue can put a big dent in your 9000’s performance. Such problems aren’t hard to spot. Saab 9000 transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, jumping or grinding during acceleration, the car shaking on the road, or whistling noises or a burning smell coming from beneath the hood. If you ignore Saab 9000 transmission issues you might notice your fuel economy decrease or find that your 9000 isn’t working at all.

Questions About 1994 Saab 9000’s Transmission

  • What happens if I "ride" my Saab's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. 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 your friend's moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. 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.
  • When should I have my 9000's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Caring for your Saab 9000’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. 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. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can Saab 9000 transmission fluid leak? Yes. Saab 9000 transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
  • Who can fix my  Saab 9000 transmission leak? When your 9000 transmission is acting up, Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to help. Book an appointment today for transmission system diagnostics and repairs.
  • Can I still drive my Saab 9000 if it has a transmission fluid leak? Driving your 9000 with a transmission fluid leak is highly discouraged. Transmission fluid is vital to the smooth operation of your transmission system, and a leak can put the entire system at risk. A transmission fluid leak may lead to decreased performance, overheating, and possibly even transmission failure.
