Hello.I have a very difficult question about my car. My saab has the 2.0t gasoline engine and I want to know if I can change this engine with the diesel one that is 1.9 ttid because in my country from now on I have to pay a lot of money to taxes and I can't sell the car because i'm still paying it. Can you tell me if this is possible?And if yes can you tell me which exactly parts should I change?

thanks

You will need a donor car with everything. The complete power train has to be replaced along with harness and all sensors. It is very costly and labor intensive.
