When I first started with Saab, I had the same problem; didn't have a clue how to get into fifth. I was just pushing too hard (going into the reverse path). Just let it flow. Don't worry about going into third, you won't once you learn how to feel it. I go almost streight up from fourth, and the car almost pulls it into fifth for me. -Chris Rodel Padua <> wrote in message news:bali4.9483$up4.221910nopsam1.rdc1.ab.home.com... > Hello, just thought someone out there might have had a similar experience > with their Saab. > I have 2 Saabs, a 1986 900s and a 1994 900s.
