After a total stop in the summer on a normal warm day, I changed the following, coil pack, fuel pump, turbo, lamdas, MAF, plugs, camshaft sensor, temp sensor. oli and filter twice, catalytic converter.

It never really recovered, the car starts badly now and runs for a bit like a kanagaroo and stops, the plugs choked black. all smells of fuel and burning

Its a 2004 saab 9-5 and it has ran really well in the spring and summer but what has caused this slow decline to running badly? 275 000km, its no miles.

I am in a bit of a fix, can anyone help?

OBD fault code says 'cylinder 1 misfire' but all plugs are fauled and quickly necome so, I have had them out so many times....it runs like 2 minutes then stops

Hello, I now have my 2004 9-5 idling nicely due to maybe new dic and plugs and maf. I I accelerate it burns raw fuel and makes clouds of smoke and stutters. fuel consumption at idle is 24 litre per 10km but I have to say the idle is steady for the first time in ages. P1301, P0300

I have a loud whirring noise from the left side in the area of piston 1, I think its the tension pulley. Maybe sounds like something inside too. Suspect valve problem.

The battery is insufficient to start the car although it turns over OK, I need to jump start as well.

Question is, is this all the battery problem? I have no vac leaks, I have replaced everything.

Either its something simple or its the piston/valves
