Mine does the same but I have a 2.8L 93 2006, any ideas where that valve is?
Great video, If you're modifying the power at all, one of the first things to change are the intercooler soft pipes, for some silicon pipes. I kept on bursting top pipes on my 2006 95 Estate (Edna facelift version) with the 1.9TiD 150bhp Z19DTH engine from Fiat. I had 205bhp and it turned out that the top pipe expanded like a balloon to keep rubbing on an object next to it. I only foud out after revving it up with hte bonnet open and looking through the gap under the wipers as I revved.
Po236..changed the sensor but still getting the same code..
Just changed mine on my 2.8 for maybe the third time. I've been getting the Porsche Pierberg one, on eeuroparts and you can buy on eBay too for less money. I've been told and seen on forums that the Porsche one tends to hold higher boost and the same direct fit. I am on stage 3 Maptun so this might be my culprit 9/10 times. I know once before it was my brake booster hose in back of the engine bay that was cracked.
Great advice on those control solenoids!
There is another one mounted on top of the intake near the Throttle body, that controls the blowoff valve. Visually identical, but different part number. Each of those is about $45 new from Eeuro. Easy replacements and really woke my 05 ARC up a few years ago. My symptom was if I floored it, the boost would hit less than full and then wither away even more within seconds. Both replaced, problem solved. Glad yours was the boost hose, as that is another example of an easy check and fix.
Why are you not drivning on your BSR Cold intake anymore?
Try checking the diaphragm inside the dump valve just below the wastegate actuator, constant problem on this engine as they age,replaced many of them in my 20 years as a saab tech.a repair kit is available as a spare part,good luck
SAAB QUESTION: Having issue with heat. We replaced blower, resistor and resistor plug now heat comes on for 45 seconds to 2 minutes and then shuts back off by itself. Any suggestions would be GRATELY appreciated
Guys, just be aware that under plastic cover near throttle, there is another one (looking similar) but with different part number. Check part no. before ordering.
Thanks for all your Saab videos. Very helpful. To clean your engine bay you can spray a can of Armor All Tire Foam on everything. Let it sit 5-10 min and then spray off with compressed air. Wipe remaining foam off with a towel. Get all books and crannies. Check out Sweet Project Cars on the YT for details. I'm out here in SoCal and next time you guys have a Saab meetup in AZ is like to come out. My daughter is driving my 2006 Sport Combi at school at Washington State but when she returns in a few months I got her another car so I can have my wagon back. 190k on her. Hoping to make 250k. Best car ever.
