Saab 9-5 DIY: Fuel Filter Replacement - Trionic Seven

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

In this video we show how to change the fuel filter in a Saab 9-5. This video does NOT apply to biopower models as they have an in-tank filter.
Featured car: 2002 Saab 9-5 Aero Salomon Edition (with extra rust!)
Sorry for the poor audio, my microphone cut out when I least expected it.

    Good luck! I would recommend having a few largish spanners so you can get counterhold on the fuel filter (measure on the new fuel filter) when releasing the bolts.

    I work as a mechanic. I have a 01 9-3 convertible. saab is one of the only makes that calls to change the fuel filter at a interval. is there any reasoning behind it? we don't normally see failed fuel filters on cars. If you use products like BG 44k which cleans the fuel system including the filter. Does one really need to change the fuel filter?

  • @TrionicSeven

    @TrionicSeven

    The fuel filter fills up with crud after some time and often also rusts out, leaking fuel. So yes, you need to change the filter. I find it strange that there are vehicles without a fuel filter change interval!

    +Trionic Seven yea. most cars we work on mercedes, Toyota, honda, and BMW (although bmw breaks down all the time :P) don't call for fuel filter change for any major service. I'm going to go ahead and change mine at my next service 130K miles and just count it as part of the 120k service I have done over the time I got the car at 121K. previous owners had the fuel filter changed at 60K. lol. then you have people like my friend who has a 99 9-3 convertible and she never had the fuel filter changed and she's at 150K miles.

    At least in the Saab 9-5, the fuel pump tends to die too early, and a clogged fuel filter makes the pump work harder and die prematurely.

    So to change the fuel filter on an Biopower Saab is impossible? because all I was able to find on EPC is that it uses a Charcoal canister as "Filter".

  • @TrionicSeven

    @TrionicSeven

    7 жыл бұрын

    It's not supposed to be replaced. That filter is inside the tank, so you need to drop the tank. The charcoal canister is for the evap system, it's not a fuel filter.

    You should run the engine and then remove fuse number 15 or 19 (depends on MY) to reduce the fuel pressure before you do this operation. And it seems like you need new back brakes...

    you could actually use 2 open end spanners. Seen it done at the mechanics place lots of times on my previous classic 900. One holding the filter, another to break open the bolt. Both on the same end though, not like how you did it with the box socket at one end and the spanner at the other end. found it on twinsaabs here. www.twinsaabs.com/9-5_repair/fuel_filter/fuel_filter.asp

    That's quite strange. I checked the EPC and partnumbers for washers are: 4161162 and 4443883 and they are not copper washers. If I remember correctly last time I changed the fuel filter with OEM (Bosch) it did come with copper washers but they are not correct.
