Welcome!

Great video as always. How much would this job cost to remove and replace in your home province of Quebec? I was able to find esaab parts is currently selling the subframe on sale for 302 US. This appears to be a common issue in in Saab 9-3's in snow and salt road areas of the country. I have seen 2 go on sale in my area with the same issue of a rustry subframe and can't pass inspection. Thanks and keep the videos coming. If you can't quote numbers - just quote hours for the job and we can figure it out.

3 to 4 hours & add 1.5 hours, if it is XWD.

Good Man!

I'm stoked to have found your channel, thanks for the video. Are near Montreal? Where did you buy the subframe from. I salvaged one from Vermont for my 06 Aero SC, anything in the scrap yards in Quebec are rusted through/ swiss cheese. I need to do this on my 05 93 Linear. It's rusted through at the AC condensate drip spot on the passenger side.

Yes, it is hard to find good subframe here in Quebec. Thanks for sharing.

Hello, great video. Is this subframe for a convertible? I am looking for a subframe for my 2010 Saab 9-3, do you know how I can procure one?

No, it is not for convertible. Check at esaabparts with the serial number of the car.

Do you have any information on how to replace the entire 2.8 engine? I've heard from the saab community that you can remove it by dropping the subframe with it. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

You can find detailed info on SAAB WIS Online. Power train removal.

@saabmastertech5852 Is the WIS for powertrain removal pretty accurate? I'm just a bit cautious because I've never removed an engine before 😅, but I'm willing to give it a shot because my motor is blown anyways. And so far your videos among other have been really helpful. Your videos helped me fix so much wrong with the car. It's just too bad the head gasket blew and maybe even cracked the block 😞. But at least the frame is solid, and has all new suspension lol.

Hi is the motor just hang by it self after you have taken it off?

The motor is held by right side engine mount & left side transmission mount. You don't have to stay under the engine after removing the subframe. If you are not sure if the engine & transmission mount are not strong enough, support the engine with a beam.

Please , if you have chance one day - make same with rear subframe . Thank you for video ! P.S. Do you support engine from top before removing subframe ?

It is better, you support the engine from the top & tie the radiators with a strap.

Thanks for the great video. Is it in this case, you didn’t support the engine from the top?

Shame on the Saab owner, to leave the car root like that.

The AC drips on that part of the subframe, it's a design flaw known by Saab enthusiasts (and north east winters do not help).

@@tomcom4 I suppose the workaround is extending the drip pipe so it goes directly to the ground instead? I bought my 93 like this and planning to replace the subframe but I don't want it to happen all over again....wondering what everyone is doing to remedy the original design flaw?
