Not sure if you'll see this since it's been 4 years, but about to undertake this procedure with my 9-3. I had both of those plastic boost valves fail in the past couple years, and only now have I noticed, and I figured I would also make a gasket for this other part as well. Thank you for the informative video, I'm going to use .08 cm gasket made of rubber and fiber designed for high boost and temperature.

Great video. I have a '05 Saab 9-3 2.0T ARC convertible w 77,000 miles and is performing below standard. I'm comparing it to my previous Saab, a '95 900SE 2.0 turbo convertible. I'm going to run through this testing process and see what I can find. A few portions of the video were above my skill level, like spraying soapy water on the bypass then going to the top of the engine to work on something else, then going back to the bypass valve to add a gasket. I understood the gasket issue, but not the other test. Your channel is a great resource for us Saab owners out there. Thanks for your help

Older 9-3's had a gasket on that bypass valve, strange how they decided to remove it. I also made my own because I wasn't about to shell out $250 USD for a BPV kit. Do yourselves a favor and use a regular paper hole punch for the bolt holes. Works perfectly

Adam Prancz , the pcv hose going from the back of the valve cover into the turbo, disconnect it and its between the turbo and the hose fitting, but this is a vacuum leak not boost leak. If ur car is under boosting, u must smoke test it , other component that can fail and cause under boost is the PCV valve (watch my video about it ). The turbo itslef can be failing as well

I have the same exact problem. Thankfully the leak is small enough that it didn't do any harm to the engine. I also have issues with the ignition and injectors- the engine gets too much fuel which results in uneven revs, and even engine stopping completely if driven on low revs (below 2500 rpm). The car goes to a mechanic next week and until then I don't even attempt starting it. I'll try fixing some small things like passenger door central lock not working and the airbag sensor in the passenger seat.

Great Video! thanks for passing on your knowledge and experience. What P/N do we need to order for #3? Is the smoke detector procedure derived from SAAB? If not, how do SAAB mechanics check for vacuum leaks? Just by replacing parts until the pressure stabilizes?!
@TheFlyingMechanicDIY
@TheFlyingMechanicDIY 5 жыл бұрын
Alex Sakellaris , if you mean the P/N for the gasket unfortunately there in no one, saab does not provide this gasket. The smoke test here is done not only according to SAAB standards but according to the industry standards as well. Mechanics use different methods, like using pressure only, water test, combustable gases tests, but the smoke test is proven to be the most accurate one. Note that, by this test u r testing the charged circuit and most of the vacuum circuit (part of brake vacuum in not included here).

Symptoms are not the way to go here. U will have to get familiar with scan tools and read data from the car, and the fuel trims will tell u if its running lean (vacuum leaks) or if its something else. In addition, when the car misfires under load, its 90% of the time from the coil, 5% old or incorrect spark plugs, 5% all other reasons .

I had to stick with the industry standards, although its the cold side of the turbo, but it still can reach high temperature and with oil residues you only have couple of choices when it come to gasket, standard fire resistance paper gasket or graphite based gasket which is the way to go.

Hello..it is not an engineering fault..there is a gasket for that port...you can see it in the EPC system from SAAB..it is available at eEuroparts.com
@TheFlyingMechanicDIY
@TheFlyingMechanicDIY 5 жыл бұрын
Hi there, since no car from factory came with this gasket that makes it a defect. In addition, the part number of the valve for the Mitsubishi turbos is 55558627, if you order this part it will come with NO gasket even from Europarts, and thats Mitsubishi’s fault. I can understand that you got confused by the diagram in the EPC as it show the gasket available for all turbos, but if you look carefully, the valve shown in all the diagrams is the non Mitsubishi one (proof: look at the location of the valve tube connection, Mitsubishi should have it at the side of the valve, while GARRET have it in the middle) and the diagram shows the one that have it in the middle, that mean the diagram is showing the Garret one for all the turbos, which is not correct). I hope i didnt confuse you more, but in summery, no car that has Mitsubishi turbo came with it from factory, and it doesnt come in with Newley purchased part, so that makes it a legit factory defect.

@@TheFlyingMechanicDIY Checked my 2007 B207E with the Mitsubishi 11T turbo and my conclusion is that there is not meant to be a gasket. The reason for it leaking is the thin metal cover not being rigid enough to clamp on the rubber diaphragm with out deforming. Place the cover on a flat surface with the "gasket" surface face down and you will see my point, on the outer edge between the holes for the 3 fasteners. Adding a gasket could potentially cause an internal leak. Forge motorsports makes an upgraded charge air bypass valve to resolve this issue.

MrChristianAA, it meant to have a gasket according to both EPC & WIS, and it make sense that no two metal surfaces can be attached holding pressure without a gasket due to metal tolerances specially due heat. Ive bee installing these gasket for 3 year in a raw and its been successful for restoring boost and saving turbos (as they would spool less to generate the same boost level). U can elect to go with aftermarket products, but im not a big fan of aftermarket. Thanks for the notes though 👍

@@TheFlyingMechanicDIY The gasket shown in EPC,WIS, ESAABPARTS.COM is for the Garrett turbocharger mounted on B207E/B207L 2003-2006. Parts diagram are often general for that model (2003-2011 in this case) and include all petrol turbochargers. Can't even find that Mitsubishi, the manufacture of the turbocharger lists a gasket. The rubber diaphragm IS the "gasket". Volvo also use a version of these turbos and no gasket is used there either. If this gasket helps you it's great but not factory correct. As for saving the turbo in regards to boost level the ECU doesn't request a boost level. It requests a specified amount of air. Turbo pressure can thereby vary a bit depending on weather conditions, altitude etc.
