30

Asked by GuruL1L7W Apr 12, 2019 at 04:28 PM about the 2002 Saab 9-3 SE Convertible

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2002 Saab 9-3 that randomly shuts off while driving and starts up
again. sometimes right away sometimes in 10 minutes. Note: I have most
recently changed out the old crank position sensor for a new one and the
problem persists. I even replaced the air filter just in case. I have a brand
new battery. And ive had these other repairs over the last 4 years or so..
alternator, fuel pump, starter and mass air flow sensor.(just to name a few)
I've also had the Direct Ignition Cassette replaced, and changed the spark
plugs but it has been a while. Should i consider some of these old parts are
bad? I also want to mention I have NO check engine light on...
