new to saabs got a question

04arc -> new to saabs got a question (2/25/2008 10:12:30 PM)
so im switching up the import scene here and went with an 04 9-3 arc but when it gets down to about half a tank of gas the turbo doesnt spool in first or second and barely third when i accelerate but fourth and fifth it does... what the hell is that about? is it supposed to do that shit or is saab gunna have to fix my shit? thanks in advance

1st and 2nd are usually limited....but what you're describing doesn't sound right

04arc -> RE: new to saabs got a question (2/26/2008 12:42:41 PM)
it feels like a shortened throttle really bc if i stand on the gas with alot of force it spools a little better.... its fine when i have over half a tank but once it gets there it starts acting gay.... love the car but hate this shit... i really hope its not supposed to do that bc ill have to reprogram the ecu bc its gay

Um...no other symptoms??? That is really wierd.

04arc -> RE: new to saabs got a question (2/26/2008 2:18:52 PM)
yea i know it is and no check engine light or anything on.... o yea i just got it down to below a 1/4 tank and started running strong through all the gears again... its i cant be having this shit happen to me at the track bc i like to run between half and quarter tank of gas i will probably be paying saab a visit soon if it keeps up

It could have something to do with an old fuel filter...
