Great video, replacing my 9-3 1.9 diesel soon so a great help. Thanks. :-)

At last a tutorial on the 16 valve engines .i could of done with this video 3 months ago when I did mine ,looked everywhere, even the Alfa 159 diesel 16 valve but nothing! At least I'm not the only one that could not get the crank pulley locking tool to fit . I'll be using this video as a tutorial on the Saab forum I work on . Yet again a fantastic, informative video from you Jonas Take care and keep Saabing !

Hey Jonas, next time I'm in Copenhagen I'd love to see you and your car.

Given me confidence to do my Insignia 2.0cdti .Great

I wish we had diesel saabs in America

The locktite on the water pump left bolt is essential as the bolt enters the water jacket of the head, incase someone may omit it as overkill! 🤦 Before putting it all back together i fill with coolant, put the crank damper pulley on and run engine to check for leaks whilst the engine is still jacked up/supported! And serp belt and mount is off. Good video!

Great job 👌 😎

It's also good to change (I did) crank shaft pulley and alternator pulley.

Hello Jonas, great video! I don't even have a Saab, but I'm still subscribed. I have a Mercedes 190e 2.3-16, but hey a car is a car, the principles will be the same. Cheers.

Hi Jonas i have a Saab 9-3X 1.9 TTID which I bought it a few months ago,I have seen in his maintenance book that they have always put 5W30 oil in it,could you tell me the oil 5W30, it's ok for this engine or it's 0W40.It's from 2009 and I don't know if it has a particulate filter.Thanks for the answere.

I’ve noticed you showing 2 markings on the lower pulley One at 5 o’clock and one at 9 o clock This is confusing.

Snyggt! Nu vet jag vad att göra i vår på 9-5an. Kör du inte k&n filter? Det köpte jag till min.😃

Thanks for the video Jonas! Just changed the belt and took lots of care to mark everything in the 9-3, however my lines never match. I turn the engine many times while adjusting tensioner - the cam and crank always align perfect. But the marked lines never match. Meh 🤷

Šaunuolis Jonai, pats geriausias ir išsamiausias video apie diržo keitimą (esu daugybę peržiūrėjęs anglų, rusų, italų kalbom). Klausimėlis: matau, kad pagal pompos žymenį galima orientuotis ar buvo keistas diržas ar ne, o gal įmanoma pagal diržo skaičiukus nustatyti jo pagaminimo metus?

I was just about to ask the same question 👍 What about the tightness of the tensioner? What would be the correct tension or are there marks for it (so I understood after watching the video)? Brilliant job and video once again Jonas 👌😎👍 Used to drive gasoline Saabs untill the following happened: a friend of mine had two NG9-3s with B207 engines: the timing chain of the first one broke up and he also had to replace the timing belt of the second one since it was in a really bad condition. I didn't want to have a car with the timing belt but figured out that if I'd like to drive Saabs, it's much more safer to replace the belt every 100 000 kms than to listen the sound of the timing chain and wonder whether it should be replaced 🙄 Also the fuel consumption is more decent with the diesel engine. The only bad thing is its sound, especially when it hasn't warmed up yet. I hate it 😉 Now our NG9-5 is TTiD and NG9-3CV is TiD 👌

Hi thank you for the video. I’ve done many cambelts on Vw engines and I always just use tipex on all the pulleys and belt. And put the same mark on the new belt and then tension everything. Is there any reason this won’t work on this engine?

New to the channel. I have a 2006 2.0t 9-3 and I tried to change the timing belt and I could never move the tensioner wrench enough to get the belt off, had to take it to a shop. Do you have any videos of doing it on that engine? I removed the passenger tire, wheel well liner, and air filter and whether I tried from up above or down below something was always in the way from moving the tensioner enough to get the belt off. I got very frustrated!

I've done about 20000 miles since and never noticed a problem. Anyone know what symptoms would be if the hp fuel pump was incorrectly timed?

Hi been doing my timing belt and water pump after watching your video. I accidentally moved the fuel pump pulley (pulley on left hand side that is not locked by tool) . Have put pulley so that the mark on timing belt corresponds to mark on pulley will this be ok? Thanks for your videos if all goes ok will have saved myself £600
