Fitting the battery cover during delivery service

Cars affected

Saab 9-3 Sport Saloon M03 with automatic transmission

Background

The hose between the radiator and the expansion tank can chafe against the adjacent TCM connector brace and become damaged.

Symptom description

Procedure

When the battery cover is fitted during delivery service, the hose must be fitted in the hose duct so that it does not become crushed or lie too close to the brace. Proceed as follows:



1. Hook the cover onto the battery cover.

2. Lower the cover.

3. Lock with the locking bolts.

4. Press the hose into place in the battery cover hose duct.

5. Check that the hose does not make contact with the connector brace.
