Car; 9000cse 16v Turbo, 1991.
Hello all, when pressing the brakes, the revs die & sometimes the engine cuts out. It starts again fine for a time but this keeps happening!
Fault light "check engine" comes on and off (was on for a day, but is off now)
Some history... I had car serviced 3 weeks ago;
I have a 9-5, '00 model and had the same problem with my car. The Check Engine light was constant - but when I braked the engine cut. Saab fixed it the same day, they said that in my case it was som problems with the turbo (if I remember correct) and due to that the car goes in a limp home mode. They fixed the problem, upgraded the software in the car and took the car out of limp home mode.
It all cosed me about $100
Regards Tore
