Cars concerned

Saab 900 M94 - M95 chassis number S2021625 (3D/5D), S7016784 (Cabriolet) and subsequent.

If complaints of unsatisfactory washer operation are made by customers, the following action may be taken.

With effect from chassis number S2021626 (3D/5D), S7016785 (Cabriolet), 9000 model washer jets are also fitted to 900 models. In order for this to be possible, the holes in the bonnet have been modified. Jets 46 73 208 do not fit in these holes.
