Replacing Remote Key Battery

Model: Saab 9 3 MK 2 - Years 2002-2014
Part: Key

To replace the battery in the remote key, first locate the hole on the side edge of the key: insert a small screwdriver into the hole and press to release the retaining tab of the cover, which can then be removed. At this point, remove the old battery and insert the new one (model CR 1632) with the positive terminal facing upwards. Once the new battery is inserted, reattach the cover and test the remote for proper operation. It is advisable to carry out the various operations carefully to avoid breaking the plastic clips.

Installation of Upgraded Intercooler Radiator with Pipes

Lift the vehicle on suitable axle stands, remove the front wheels, and then the front bumper and grille. Proceed to remove the front headlights; drain the coolant, remove the intercooler radiator and the hoses connecting it to the intake system. Position the new intercooler radiator in the grille, temporarily securing it with cable ties, and mark with a marker the part of the metal that needs to be removed to allow the new hoses to pass through. Cut the marked portion of metal and apply a gasket to the edge. Remove the inner cover of the bumper and position it near the radiator to identify any interfering parts to eliminate: again, apply a gasket to the edge of the cut. Create brackets for securing the new radiator and proceed with the installation of the connecting pipes from the radiator to the intake, shaping and connecting them appropriately. Finally, reassemble the bumper, headlights, and grille.
