Hi all,
My 2001 Saab 9-3 Aero seems to be slowing down a bit recently...
It has a "turbo" gauge, which seems to be a boost gauge without a scale, but white, orange and red segments instead. The boost limit is slightly into the red. I'm fairly sure I remember it, in the past, being able to get into the red below 2K RPM, then staying there solidly until the red line at 6K.
Now though, I seem to need at least 2.5K to get into the red and it falls back into the orange slightly at something over 5K. Needless to say, the edge has gone off the acceleration.
The air filter is getting on a bit, so I guess it could be that. Does anyone have any other ideas? control system?
Also, can anyone with the same car confirm that the way I remember it is correct?
Cheers,
Colin.
