Saab 9-3 Coolant Flush & Thermostat Replacement

Coolant flush on an 2006 2.0t Saab 9-3. This should be the almost same for 2004-2011 variants of the 2.0t 9-3. For flushing I recommend picking multiple gallons of distilled water from the grocery store (usually about a $1 or less each), and you will need a secure container to hold the used coolant for recycling. Check your city/state for local recycling options. When selecting a coolant, make sure it is Dex Cool (orange) compatible.
