The 2.8 V6 B284 engine powering Saab’s flagship 9-3 Aero XWD has enormous potential—but also notorious weak points. Saab expert Javin Sheperd shares five smart, hands-on mods that transform the B284 from a heat-soaked headache into a durable daily performer.

One of the cleanest Saab 9-3 Anniversary Convertibles we’ve ever seen: V6, manual, Electric Blue, and 15 years of passionate ownership.
This 2006 Saab 9-3 Aero 2.8T V6 Cabriolet 20th Anniversary Edition is one of just 412 units ever built, making it one of the most exclusive Saab convertibles. Finished in Electric Blue Metallic with a turbocharged 250-hp V6, this low-mileage example (44,226 km) remains in pristine, factory-original condition. With flawless mechanics, an immaculate interior, and a rare commemorative trim, this is a must-have for any serious Saab collector.
Saab's innovative engineering has produced many brilliant solutions, but the ECU placement in both petrol and diesel Saab 9-3 models remains a critical flaw. The T8 ECU in petrol versions suffers from excessive heat and vibrations, while the TTiD ECU is exposed to moisture, salt, and debris in the front wheel well—both leading to premature failures. Fortunately, relocation kits from KM Tronics provide an affordable and effective fix, significantly extending the lifespan of these vital components. Avoid costly ECU replacements—relocate it today and drive with confidence.
