Thanks for the video ..I'm doing this on my Saab 93 tid same engine ...I cannot get the turbo air intake pipe back 😮

[@RichManPoorMotors]

From memory it was a bit difficult, it looks easier than it was, good luck

[@leethancarlton7797]

hi mate i watched your manual shut of the astra twintop roof I was wondering if you had an explanation on what to do after as ive followed your instructions and repaired the cog which was broken but got no use in getting the roof to operate at all

[@RichManPoorMotors]

if you have a code scanner clear codes and as lond as every thing was fully closed ie boot roof rams ect it should start to work, if it stops at any point then there may be another fault like the wiring etc

I was thinking if trying to replace the turbo on my vectra, after watching this I think I'll just try selling it 😂

[@RichManPoorMotors]

it amazes me how some cars are so easy to repair while others are a pain in the A

[@RandomGamingFTW]

[@RichManPoorMotors]

Always Run a turbo down when hot this is why they Fail People Come Flying up the Motorway to destination then switch it off with the Spent side of the turbo Glowing hot. Turbo is the First thing to get oil But its the last when you Switch Off. 2 min run down when motorway hot then this will not have to happen.
