the turbo could have died in which case have it replaced
yes the fault codes may reveal the area of the fault but if it is a mechanical failure , it may not show up
engine lights report on engine AND transmission faults so the indicated problem may be electronic related to the transmission controls
2001 Saab 95 se driver/passenger windows.
A car I owned the left rear window did that. I could pull it up by taking a hold of it while another person held the switch. They told me the problem was the track was made out of plastic and it had broken. They had to replace the track. Yes it was expensive to repair but is ok now.
2003 saab 95 aero p-code 1300
Here is what I could find on it:
P1300 Random Misfire Detected. Catalyst Damaging.
Chances are that the Saab Ignition cassette is failing. You can find them on ebay, I recommend a new one since it is a common failure. Best to put new plugs in it while you are at it.
Easy to change, you just need a T-30 Torx (4 small bolts)
and one electrical connector on top of the engine. Oh and a good spark plug wrench.
2003 saab 95 aero misfire
I see no one else has posted an answer for you here yet so I will take a stab at it for you. The P1300 codes I am familiar with on the Saab's are P1334 and P1312 which almost always means the ignition cassette is failing. Most of the time the car will still run good, at least at first anyway getting worse over time. They are not cheap, ebay has the lowest prices and most availability that I know of. They are very easy to replace, just one electrical connector and four large torx screws right on top of the engine. If you have a black one replace it with black, red with red. To be absolutely sure you get the right one it's best to match part numbers. That being said most of the ones I have used have been interchangeable as long as they are the same color & # of cylinders.
Engine knocking noise in 2000 saab 9-3 SE?
It's a common problem with these cars i am actually fixing mine as of now. That car is all about oil pressure and when it is low you'll start to get a tap and or what sounds like a knock due to the lifters not having enough pressure. Try taking your oil pan off and check your oil pick up line going from the oil pan to the turbo. A lot of times it gets a lot of sludge build up and makes the pressure little to none. If that looks clear check the slump inside the oil pan and see if that has sludge build up. Well hope this helped
1999 lexus check engine lights on
Hi Angie:The check engine light is reserved only for Powertrain problems that could have an impact on the emissions systems.Exactly
what the OBD system looks for depends on the make, model and year. The
original systems varied widely in their capabilities.
Some did little more than check whether the
various electronic sensors and actuators were hooked up and working.I suggest scanned the PCM computer (Powertrain COntrol Module) to know exactly what fault code is stored there.Hope this helps; also keep in mind that your feedback is important and I'll appreciate
your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about
this answer.Thank you for using Fixya, and have a nice day.
Saab turbo 9-3 need computer trouble code
P1300 is random misfiring. I suggest replacing your DI cassette with a known good unit or a replacement unit. Give more info on your vehicle. Any symptoms or running rough?

I have engine codes p103
P103 Mass or Volume Air flow Circuit High Input
P107 Manifold Absolute Pressure/Barometric Pressure Circuit Low Input
Maybe the P103 code trigger the other one, you could try cleaning the MAF sensor.
Then put the scanner and erase the codes.
Another trick that sometimes work is to cover half of the tube just bebore the maff with duct tape, that will make the MAF to percieve less flow making the car to work a little better.
