They now offer a mic for calls. You have to enable your phones assistant to make a hands free call, but it works great. Thank you for this vid. It really helped me out and now I have Bluetooth in my Saab. 2005 Convertible 9-3. I love this car.

[@mdcEVO8]

I got this device in the mail today thanks to your recommendation and this handy vid. Thank you! I did have my AUX activated via Tech2, cost like 50 bucks.. I had run a wire into the armrest with a bluetooth receiver but it had to be recharged all the time and it didn't autoconnect so I'm looking forward to this better set up. 03 Vector

Hi, i've just installed it today as well and it works perfectly on my Saab 93 vector 2004. Took me proxitmly 20 minutes to install it.

[@esiasonrodriguez1800]

Do you need aux setting for this

[@AutoAutopsy]

I mentioned twice in the video, yes. It can be activated with a tech2 if you don’t already have it.

[@Themadscientist1969]

I went with A Kenwood DIN radio in the old CD player spot, An "O CAN" bypass from etadyne industries took care of the fiber optic bypass basically fixing the loop break when any piece of the stereo is removed. Bluetooth,Alexa,Spotify all at my fingertips now and can go back to stock without anyone ever knowing this '04' 9-3 Linear ever had 2-15" subs ,a huge 5/ch amp and aftermarket speakers in it (well, maybe the small hole in the drink holder panel where the bass knob is and door mounted Alpine tweeters--lol.) BUT all that said--I'LL NEVER be selling it (nor my '01' 9-5 aero) This video would be very helpful for others not wanting to spend an entire day running wiring like I did though!!! Thanks for sharing it!

[@AutoAutopsy]

lol yeah, wiring is not my thing; kudos to you for getting that sorted though!

[@shikafer]

Hi Henrik, I'm Fernando. I Like your Saab videos. I have a few questions: I have a Saab 93-2003 Vector 2.0T. Do you sell this Bluetooth device? Or how can I get It? My Head Unit doesn't have a "Multimedia" ir AUX programmed in the stereo, do I have to program it with Tech II?. My other Question Is the "Check Engine" light turned on and I scanned the car and send the "P0546" code, wich is "Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor" (Circuit High, Bank 1 Sensor 1), Do you know if I have to replace just that sensor? Or might be another thing? Best Regards from México.

[@vtr0104]

@@shikafer I know it might be late, but thought I'd reply anyway. The AUX needs to be programmed before, otherwise the connector being plugged in might actually disable the radio as well. After that you can run this device or an AUX kit if you have one. For the Error, that sounds like one of the O2 sensors is dead or faulty. Bank 1 always shows for the 4-cylinders (I have the same engine, the B207L), Sensor 1 should be the one immediately after the turbo heat-shield. You can see it sticking out near the coolant reservoir, towards the firewall. That one should be easier to replace, on mine, the other one, on the exhaust under the car, failed 3 times in 9 years since I've had the car, and it's annoying to replace...

Hello, Have you ever used or compared the sound via a generic cigarette lighter usb FM radio adapter that connects wirelessly as a radio station like 88.1 fm?

[@Robertarnolddijkstra]

I received mine yesterday, they've updated the device, it now has a small microphone, so you can use it for making phone calls as well. The sound is phenomenal. Before I used this thing, I had a Bluetooth device connected through the aux input. But this is way way better. Only negative thing, you can't use the steeringwheel buttons to go to next song.

[@AutoAutopsy]

yeah, but that couldn't be down with he aux either, so it's not a "negative" imo

[@kallis2557]

Hey, I just ordered mine yesterday and I’m just wondering how the microphone works and if it’s any good?

[@Mareks_Riekstins]

Does the bluetooth work even when key is out and radio is turned on?

[@kallis2557]

@@Mareks_Riekstins Although I haven’t got mine yet, I would assume so considering that the regular AUX does, but I’m not quite sure, since it’s connected to the cigarette lighter.

[@ANONYMOUSMMXMTRADER]

I use a fm transmitter. Comes with bluetooth and works so good. Bought it for 10 dollars, using it on my Saab 93 Vector 2004.

[@grapewater123]

Problem is sound quality

[@chrisknowles2112]

Iv got one if those fm transmitters too. Soumd quality is not the best but doed the job. This product should be very good as uses the fibre optic systen. Hopefully they ship to England

[@AutoAutopsy]

Sounds like a cheaper solution, but sound quality might be an issue with something like that as stated

[@ANONYMOUSMMXMTRADER]

@@AutoAutopsy ​ The sound quality as you mentioned isn't the best. But its not bad at all, the transmitter also has built in bluetooth so no cable is required and works fine in my daily saab. But when i will upgrade the sound in my car i will definitely check out your resolution.

[@marin8231]

Get an adapter that connects directly to your AUX port (if your Saab has one) Costs about the same as FM transmitters and they sound miles better

[@markaustin4370]

Man so helpful

[@AutoAutopsy]

🙌🏼

[@MrSkunkey]

I was very sceptic to Fm transmitters, tryied some, but then i found the Xiaomi Roidmi 3s and in 9-5 ‘06 with Denso works really good. Comparing sound between cd and bt fm trans is relatively without great noise hum or fm white noise and tone quality is also verz acceptable, for example the noises from outside of the car are much worse. Verz inexpensive soulution, looks like usb charger (got it in black so it fits interior), provides quick charging and also ambient lighting is adjustable so you can turn it off or in my case set default to same green as gage clusters

i'm just not a fan of stuff like that in my interior, that's why i like this. OEM look and feel!

[@js_5083]

@@ilhamimaamuddin6836 Yes and no. If you connect the aux with this device you somewhat get better sound clarity.

[@vdlindenmm]

It's the first time i see this video. There's lot of discussion about sound quality bluetooth vs cable. Actually it's the same discussion wifi vs internet cable. IMHO it depends on the stability of the signal and bluetooth, but also wifi is not a very stable connection. I myself prefer the stable quality of a Audioquest AUX cable and the sound quality with my ICM3, OEM fitted Pioneer speakers with OEM Pioneer subwoofer in the rear + extra Ribbon tweeters with home made x-over, is excellent. Even the centerspeaker is the same. I added some Dacron. I don't have to change the speakers or use a bluetooth connection.

[@AutoAutopsy]

fair argument and comparison!

[@User_76ytrl]

Τhe quality is better 👍

[@AutoAutopsy]

For sure! Thanks!

[@scottc78]

I just installed this on my 06 9-3 Aero. It works beautifully. This video helped immensely after I couldn't find the instructions on the website. I had an aux cord to Bluetooth receiver previously, but I hated powering it on every time I got in the car. This is automatic. Only issue I had was my lower section is a cubby, not an ash tray. Used a flat head to pull a little tab away from the side to release the left, yanked on the right. Pulled out fine.

[@AutoAutopsy]

yeah, i love that its automatic :) glad the video was helpful

Keeps demanding I insert the DVD or is perpetually checking. I would love to totally replace the unit. Your thoughts? BTW, I replace the fuel regulator (previous problem with check light) and it’s worked. However, I can see me spending $3k to $4k on brakes, tires, new wheels and other things. But love this car.

[@AutoAutopsy]

If you're doing the work yourself, that sounds amount to that much money unless you're buying expensive wheels. Aftermarket head units aren't too hard to do on 07+. You can find some good info online about swaps

[@AnalogPlanet]

Compared to a direct "aux" connection, Bluetooth always degrades the sound. I'm not sure what you are hearing other than LOUDER. It may very well be, but "better"? No way!

[@danitz56]

I'm not sure what you're hearing, but he said with the aux it's gonna be louder and better quality

[@bradley7240]

@@danitz56 The point is Bluetooth is a lossy format and has worse quality, however often the aux input in cars degrades the max volume, not sure why but it happens in a lot of older cars. So Bluetooth ends up being better An example is using radio, then going to aux, and you’d hear aux is a lot quieter

[@danitz56]

@@bradley7240 I wonder if this thing he's using would be better than the Bose Bluetooth adapter I'm using into the aux input...?

[@ilkkak3065]

Phones usually has poor quality and output level in headphone jack, that's why bluetooth give better quality and louder output. If you use some (non phone ) quality player Fio, Onkyo or so on you might get better quality than Bluetooth.

"I've been told my outro song sounds good on this system" Hi that was me. But I'm also running a 10 in mine. Using a low level signal processor, I'm pulling low end power off the 6x9s and sending that signal to an amp, and to the 10. Keeping a nice factory GPS head unit, but having some sweet low end.

Hi is there any video how to pull out pins and refit in Bluetooth plug? Is that the only option to keep aux?

[@eliegipciaco]

Bluetooth tends to have lower audio quality versus wired connections but can’t beat the convenience

[@AutoAutopsy]

Bet

[@jscotlandr]

Great work, thanks. A quick question, I went to the Saab Plus website and it said to check if Aux is enabled to push the CD button on the head unit twice and Aux should show up. When I do that I get the same screen as when I click through to use my Aux input that says shows: Play Change Media Program Type I assume this means that I have Aux enabled. Am I correct in this? PS I removed the stock dash 3.5" speaker and tweeter and installed a set of Infinity 3.5" 2 way speakers. The difference was incredible. Not only in sound quality, but volume also. The difference was so significant that I had to change the rear 3.5" side speakers the same way to balance out the sound without having my fader dialed almost entirely to the rear. My set up is a little different than yours as I have a 2006 9-3 Arc convertible with the 13 speaker sound system.

[@AutoAutopsy]

Oh nice! Glad to hear you’ve had good results with those speakers. As for the Aux, hit “src” twice in the steering wheel. If an aux option never comes up, you probably don’t have it enabled

[@jscotlandr]

@@AutoAutopsy Got it. Have to wait a few seconds in between each press of the SRC button. At first I was doing it as you would double click a mouse.

i'm not sure what you're asking; this replaces the aux function. if your car didn't come with aux from factory, a tech2 is needed to activate it

[@cleti4786]

Does it schow what Songs playing in the Sid? Are you able to Switch Songs via the Buttons on the Steering wheel? Cheers

[@AutoAutopsy]

no, functions just as the aux does in terms of buttons

[@cleti4786]

@@AutoAutopsy Then i see no reason for it😅 i have a Bluetooth Adapter plugged into the 12v Outlet in the glovebox and the aux Input. It automaticly connects to my Phone within seconds after switching on the Ignition. And it actually just costs 1/6 of the Bluetooth dongle specificly for the Saab. Thanks for the response anyway😅✌🏻

[@elsapomasguapo]

Interesting the quality got better? Also have you had any Bluetooth connectivity issues?

[@AutoAutopsy]

I have not; works perfectly

[@sylwiamatlosz5430]

Hi. Will this bluetooth adapter also connect contact details from mobile phone?

[@AutoAutopsy]

no.

Hi, Iknow your moving away from Saab's but would this work on a 2007 9-3 Aero?

[@AutoAutopsy]

no it's only for 03-06! Im not moving away from saab at all, just selling one of the ones i have!

[@caffina5882]

You can also just buy a Bluetooth adapter for like 20 dollars on Amazon. I love mine and it can take phone calls.

[@AutoAutopsy]

Don’t get the same sound quality tho

[@marin8231]

@@AutoAutopsy it depends on how good the adapter is. Usually most of them still sound better than radio and CD which is a big win in my book given all the benefits you get with BT for literally 2 minutes of your time to install it. PS. I'm assuming Caffina is referring to adapters that connect straight to the AUX port which sound much better than FM transmitters.

Where is my radio fuse located on my 06 saab

Hi, may you tell something about those wheels ? Measure (18 or 19), ET, brand, rim width measurement, thanks in advance

These are 18” and are sport edition p3 :)

[@robertreessink]

Why cant you put a autobluetooth receiver into the aux connector so you can play use both!

[@AutoAutopsy]

because this is a better solution IMO; there's no need for both!

[@shikafer]

Hi Henrik, Do you sell that device? My Saab stereo Is the same as yours but It doesn't comes with AUX or Multimedia Source programmed un it so, do I need Tech II to able It? Another question Is that the "Check Engine" light turned on and when I scanned the car appeared the P0546 code wich is "The Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor Circuit High Bank 1" so, do you know if just have to change It? Or could be something else? Best Greetings from México City.

[@AutoAutopsy]

Who’s Henrik? I answered both of your questions in the intro of the video!

[@shikafer]

Thanks for answering both of my questions and excuse me if I named you wrong. Anyway, whats your mame? Best Regards.

Its work on saab 9-3 2007?!

[@viktorlekstam4655]

Hey! I have a Saab 93 Aero 04 too. But the buttons for the traction control and all the other ones are in the bottom. Nothing happens when i press them! Guess something behind is broken, but how do i fix that?? Hope ill get a answer! Good video // from sweden :D

[@AutoAutopsy]

Pull that panel off. Maybe it’s somehow disconnected or there’s a fuse for that specific panel that has gone bad

[@viktorlekstam4655]

Where are you located? I'm in phx Could sure use your help with my 06 anniv edition convertible

[@AutoAutopsy]

Also in phoenix myself! I’m not really a mechanic for other people, but my good buddy at www.savingsaabs.com is also local and fixed Saabs 👍🏼 same with IMM Auto Service in Tempe

[@trevorstringer4280]

To do this do I have to use a tech 2 to enable the aux?

[@AutoAutopsy]

if you don't already have it enabled, yep

[@AMUNii97]

Could this work for a vauxhall/opel vectra 2004

[@AutoAutopsy]

I would contact saabplus about that.

[@alexcastillo986]

Too bad I have an 08. What’s a good aftermarket radio for the 08 9-3, I’ve been looking for a touchscreen radio but I don’t want to buy something that won’t fit or won’t work, do you have a recommendation on which one I should buy?

[@AutoAutopsy]

No recommendations unfortunately. Facebook has a ton of threads with aftermarket head units for 07+ cars though, so I would check there!
