vehicle description:
hi and welcome to my sale of my Saab 9-3 aero sportwagon anniversary edition..
all the aeros 2006> til >2011 have the revised version of the b207r engine which is where the problems for these Saabs began..( google inlet manifold valve issue Saab b207r) if your serious about purchasing one of these on the effected years ....
2003>to2006 aeros b207r are not affected by these inlet valve issues , there worst issue is rear balancing chain issue that consistently goes wrong on them.. i know as mine needed to be changed on my 54reg aero cabroilet ....
My 2007 Saab 9-3 aero sportwagon had the inlet manifold valve issue around 550miles after purchasing in march this year, at the time i had no idea of the issues that the b207r engine 2006>2011 had and had to find out the hard way , after replacing several sensors , throttle body ect to no avail...
I finally found an old chap that previously worked for Saab on Saabcentral forum that had the answer to my problem..
So the work began ... the Saab is a 16 valve which means 8 valves INLET and 8valves outlet....
the cylinder head was taken off and had the inlet valves replaced with new ones and re-seated .. the head was also skimmed and pressure tested to be on the safe side..
in order to remove the cylinder head from the engine had to be locked with a timing tool, camshafts removed (wasn"t cheap) ....
in effect the hours of labour on the job was extensive but engine overhauls are never easy jobs......
the car was obviously given a full service , spark plugs even coolant change at the same time....
the clutch / flywheel and bearinginside the gearbox was also replaced as the car became a project after a while and i wanted to make it as perfect as possible......
if you are serious about buying an aero sportwagon with low mileage for the year that has had a very expensive b207r 2006
