vehicle description:

SPARES OR REPAIRS - ECU FAULT
Good condition for the year with full leather. 2.0t petrol manual - been in the same family for many years now and has loads of service history and has an MOT until October 5th 2017.
101,800 miles.
The car was driving very well previously BUT one day went into limp mode before cutting out - I had the car diagnostically checked by Simply Saab in Bristol who have said that it is most likely in need of an ECU repair or replacement. They reset the car using their diagnostic scanner and it drove absolutely fine again. After a short while the fault returned - it seems to occur when the car gets up to temperature, it goes into limp mode and then will cut out. If you unplug the ECU plug under the bonnet, wait a few minutes then plug it back in, the car will start again but still be in limp mode.
Body has a few marks but nothing serious, please see photographs.
The other fault I can find is that the heater fan doesn"t work. Simply Saab said that it will need a new resistor.
Because of the nature of this fault, I would strongly suggest that you tow or trailer this car away unless you know what you are doing and have a diagnostic scanner perhaps!
I have loads of paperwork, service history, 3 keys and all books/manuals etc.
