- An in depth video where I even show how to do the rear section and go as far as opening the broken expansion tank to show how the sensor system works, however I use poor wording so hopefully you can understand me. Hope you enjoy the video!!! Don’t forget to subscribe.

Best video out there for this job
I try 😀😀😀
Thanks I appreciate the video. After installing my new tank I was still getting the low coolant message. So I cleaned the plug with electrical cleaner and used a Q-tip to take out any debris and that solved it.
Thanks for posting this, and yes it is the best walk through of dealing with the expansion tank. I've been chasing a coolant issue for almost a year now, replaced thermostat, water pump, expansion tank and cap 3 times, and have been running UV dye in it... and still can't figure out why it keeps overheating and losing coolant.
Because it's your head gasket
thanks for showing the "thing in the back" lol it really helps
thanks for that!
Thanks for this!!
Nice work, given how F-ing hard it is to get the hose back on AND clip it, you managed to film it. The right side metal bracket the reservoir snaps into took a chunk out of my forearm, I thought there was tow in my future at one point.
Thank you!
You got it!
I’m having trouble removing the clip that holds the lower back hose, I can’t seem to find that rigged part of the clip where you insert you pick
Did you end up figuring it out? It can be troubling.
I have an 2008 93 areo with the 2.8, im about to mess around with the thermostat, they say the housing is on the side, and ill have to take off the battery box and some of the turbo, is this true?
Yes this is true. If you find me on Instagram I can send you a picture of where it is with the side of the engine disassembled. Why are you messing with it?
What is that extra tube on the back of the coolant bottle? It seems to lead no where?
Overflow hose
@@SolvingSaab does it connect to somewhere or just hangs freely? I wonder if that's where my "leak" is coming from. Got a new bottle to install and when I saw that hose I was like....nooo way..
@@blakcard just hangs freely. Don’t fill your coolant unless the light actually comes on. Saabs tend to look low on coolant due to the design of the reservoir but aren’t really. Then when it gets up to temp the coolant expands and goes right out the back and burns off the exhaust.
@@SolvingSaab thanks very much. My light comes on a lot.. Check it when it's cool and the level is low. Plus it sucks to be at a light and see smoke coming from a) a leak or b) run off...it doesn't run hot. Just the burn off the exhaust every now and again
@@blakcard if you have another reservoir swap and see if the problem stops. You could have a crack in it or something.
what about the plastic o-ring on the bottom hose? Any ideas of this should be replaced or can the old one be re-used? I tried looking for a replacement and they are all soft o-rings, the old is hard plastic ring I am wondering if it became "Plastic" due to time and heat? any thoughts?
Yes it's the opposite of dick the older it is the harder it becomes
Any videos on replacing the water pump?
Unfortunately no, I’ve never had to do it. Fingers crossed that one breaks soon so I can make a video 🤣.
Mine is currently leaking coolant so bad that it's a constant stream. I've checked the heater hose that looks like a y and the leaked isn't from there but it's coming from the transmission area under the driver side. Car is stick shift. I don't know what to order I feel like the tank is fine it doesn't appear to be leaking from the front and it's such a bad leak literally pissing. I'm wondering if it's the thermostat housing or something rather but it's so far away from it I have my doubts. Do you know any other spot the coolant could be leaking from? Water pump done not that long ago and it sprays coolant when I give it gas.
If it is something that bad I would get it checked at a shop. I’m sorry to hear that is happening. Have you located the leak?
Thank bro.
Hey man I’m having some problems with the heat the air and ac blow but when I put it to 80 or max heat no heat comes out and idk why
I will look into this and get back to you. Message me on Instagram if you have it.
Any chance you’d know where to buy and extra radiator clip (the wire clip)?.. Mine shot into the abyss and the VW substitute clip (32mm) won’t fit
I have one up at my place. I can’t find the part number on esaab. The hose it is attached to is back ordered. If you add me on Instagram we can figure out some sort of deal.
I know you probably don't need to know anymore, but for anybody with the same question, supposedly the clip from Dorman connector 902-714 fits perfectly.
Why replace?.. where did you find he temp sensors did not find them where cool to see the inside
There is no temp sensor in the unit that I am aware of. I replaced the reservoir because the proximity sensor float was stuck/broken.
@@SolvingSaab yeah i mean level sensor...
@@SolvingSaab Oke I got the OPC 2.8 my light came on.. did not replace it just fix my massa and no more lights..
@@SolvingSaab you sad you replace the level sensor a few times.. where did you order I cant find 1.. the old one can be resold and place back.. but then can broke of when it is removed. But very cool to see the inside
@@Michael-mo1lx I’ve never ordered one. I have parts cars that I used them on. Try looking on esaabparts.com.
Super vid!!! I have a new tank installed and am having a leak. Just did oil change and I coulda bunch by the lower pulley passenger side. I'm guessing water pump? Thoughts
Sounds about right. Do you have an aftermarket do88 radiator? Because your pressure bolt could be loose, that is what just happened to me.
@@SolvingSaab she's a stock 08 just clicked past 90k.
@@SolvingSaab pressure bolt?
@@chrisbartkowicz2052 if you don’t have an aftermarket radiator then you don’t have one. There is a pressure relief screw on the top of the radiator for when you are draining it. In your case it is probably the water pump.
Can you just purchase the sensor?
Yes it’s on Amazon for about 12.99. The reservoir I cut up was already broken. I wanted to see what it looked like inside.
@@SolvingSaab
Thanks. My tank is good the sensor is bad as it's showing coolant level low. Have to replace the radiator so figured I'd take care of this also.
Can't seem to find this part anywhere. Saab part Saab Engine Coolant Level Sensor - Genuine Saab 13271444. However it says it's for 9-5 V6. Mine 06 9-3 V6 turbo
@@tpdtopcop2010 I am pretty sure that will work. They are cheap on Amazon and advanced auto.
Model and year???
This will work on any model 9-3 with the v6. Any 9-3 aero. This particular model was 2008 and 2009 9-3 aero xwd.
My god you must have small hands, getting hose on back back on is killing me
@@ryanh6081 Lmao, hands arent small. Indeed this job can be painful. 🤣
