Subject: Re: 99 9-5 Turbo?  TSB on blue puff at start?


Thanks for the pointers from a couple of you... I've found the TSB that I was looking at, it's actually a recall (291-2211) The dealer is supposed to have marked the car on the "campaign plate" if this recall was done on the car, I'll have to go check and see if I can find this. (any clue as to where this campaign plate would be found?) As for the turbo, its' a Garrett GT1752, or so says a couple of site including the sweedish one that was referenced in one of hte replies. However, I cant' find any info on Garrett's that look anything like that number. (possibly a Saab-custom housing, etc?) Anywya, I can find GT15, GT2, GT3 and GT4 info. Anyone have any idea which ones we're talking about?
