Bonjour, désolé de ne répondre que maintenant ! Je ne saurai dire s'il s'agit d'une boite de vitesses F40 ou une M32, mais j'ai mis 3 litres de CASTROL SYNTRANS TRANSAXLE 1557BD 75W-90, tel que recommandé dans le manuel SAAB. Comme vous, j'avais à peine 2 litres après avoir vidangé complétement. Aucun souci depuis et surtout, beaucoup moins d'échauffement au niveau du levier de passage des vitesses et moins de dureté également. J'ai également fait un nettoyage puis graissage de toute la tringlerie du levier jusqu'à la boite. @@drefhill

Thanks for all the videos, they've been of great help especially for double-checking all the quirks in removing trim and other things, and it's funny how you just happen to have the same model, year and color as mine. WIS states that both mine (F17, Z18XE) and your gearbox should have OEM-number 12799117, and the oils that I've found with that number are GL-5 (API GL5). Still, you advise not using GL-5? Edit: Ah, found older comments asking the same question - yes, the one I found (Febi Bilstein 32590) was both GL-4 and GL-5, so then it's all good I take it.

Thanks for these great videos, wonder if you can help with my SAAB93TID (06) Auto. i had the gearbox oil changed about 10 months ago at a knowledgeable Saab garage, recently i have developed an issue where the car stalls in gear/reverse when i am stationary with foot on the brake, sound like some TCC lock up issue from what i have been reading? no engine lights, wonder if changing the oil again might help?. Thanks

I’m having a problem with my 2000 Saab 9-5 manual transmission reverse is giving me a lot of problem car runs perfect but when is time to put in reverse it just don’t want to go some time i have to switch off the engine and it may go in reverse with no problem taking out the key takes me 15-20 minutes i was told to change the shift linkage I spend $800 for a new shifter linkage still didn’t work what could be causing that problem

I just bought a 2010 9-3X. I think it always got oem gearbox oil.. Now, do i really need to flush the transmission before i put in Castrol? Gearbox has developed a mild scraping sound at low speeds and i hope it is due to bad oil or perhaps a leak from the drain-plug causing low oil level..

Again many thanks again for all your great videos and merry Christmas 👍🎄

i´d recommend a mtf 3 75w instead of a 75w80 and fill in just 1,7 litres. i had the best results with this

Car is currently up on the ramp at my friendly local garage, oil draining. I just checked SaabWIS and it says fluid capacity total 2.4, fluid capacity refill 2.2L, presumably because 200ml remains in even after draining... I might ask them to split the difference and put in 2.3L, given they'll also be adding about 120ml of Molyslip 2001G.

@@koendb5456 is that a question or a statement? There should be a washer on the drain plug. Some plugs you can buy have an integrated rubber seal (similar to the B207 engine sump plug). At the least, use a 18mm copper washer.

@@CycloneCyd actually it's both. I've done 2 gearbox oil changes. 1st time a flush and 2nd a proper refill. Twice I haven't noticed there was a washer. No gearbox oil is leaking though. I've ordered a SS drain plug with rubber seal. Can I reuse the gearbox oil when I change the drain plug?

When are you going to do the repair of Driver's seat lumber support which you told me you will do it few months ago ?? I'm waiting ...

There's no need to change the oil in this box. The F40 is bulletproof. Seen many Saab, Alfa Romeo and Insignia diesels over 300.000 miles with the factory oil shifting as new.

I've flushed mine to check how much there was in it and it was very clean at 150 000km. There was 1,85L. This guy is nuts to change it so often.

On the mannol packaging it literally says gl4 / gl5 surely you’re going against what you said about not using gl5?!?!

Not at all. It's a GL4 that is GL5 compatible (not all GL4s are).

Lost 6th gear. Tried four garages and can't even get someone to look at it. Prob needed to refill this gearbox fluid I've never even heard of before! Oh well...car is getting sold less than a year after I bought it because mechanics are useless and won't even touch a saab

Hey, you cheated because you’re supposed to take the camera underneath of your car all the way and so wet to open it at

You supposed to take the phone I need the car all the way the camera I needed the car and shows wet piece you supposed to open how do I look like touch it fill it and spot where we’re supposed to be at and how to find it, you are cheating you’re not showing the real part of the video

Seriously...if you don't know cars yourself or know someone that does...just avoid all used cars! Too risky. Too many things to go wrong and too many knuckle dragging morons too busy to help
