Hi, new to he site and wondering if anyone can help or point me in the right direction.
Just bought a 58 plate Saab 93 120 TDi with a manual 6 speed box with 12 months warranty done 68000 miles full service history.
Encountered a weird problem today. Gears 1-4 OK not too difficult and quite smooth. Went in to 5th and then 6th and all OK until I came to an island...I went down the box 5-4-3 OK.
When I then pulled away in 1st - it was in reverse and I HAD.NT pushed up the reverse notch.....then driving along slowly seemed 1st was 3rd,2nd was 4th,3rd was 5th...
Pulled over let the car cool down and drove home NO PROBLEMS at all keeping it in 1-4th gear....
I have read many issues re Saab/GM 6 speed box - any suggestions what the problem might be....although under warranty to a non Saab dealership is it best to get saab dealer to check it out?
Thanks in anticipation for any help
