As I have posted before. The official text of upgrade Posted by SWEDECAR [Email] (#112) [Profile/Gallery] (more from SWEDECAR) on Sun, 19 Dec 2004 11:03:55 In Reply to: really?, Dean, Fri, 17 Dec 2004 16:20:51 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
<Support for Tech 2 special function to detect Ignition Discharge Module failure. Improved control of ignition trig drivers to protect Ignition Discharge Module. Cold engine protection implemented. Improved CC tip in/out. Improved knock detection.>
Keep in mind though that different years and engines have different upgrades.
The IDM upgrade is not available for the 1999 9-5 even though that still is a T7 system.
It seems that people have difficulties to beleive that Saab have done something to prevent the failures.
The data is also going to be scewed for awhile since many people throw the new IDM in themself without getting the upgrade.
I guess we wont know until some years from now if it works or not.
By the way, have you heard of any 2003 and up yet with a bad IDM?
Those cars came with the new software from factory and you would think that by now some of them have reached around 15 to 20K miles as where the 2002 and older started to fail.
