If the rear speakers worked before your new head unit was installed, then the first question is does your new head unit have the facility to feed four speakers. Some systems will only power two speakers. The Audio Shop should have rectified the fault - you paid for the installation and as the customer you have a reasonable expectation that they would do it properly and ensure that all of the existing speakers were functioning properly. It would be worth challenging them again - if they refuse you could go to Citizen's Advice Bureaux or the nearest Trading Standards Office. Alternatively, try tracing the wires back from the rear speakers to the head unit - are the wires connected up properly... at both ends (i.e., the speaker end and the head unit).

The audio shop has probably hard wired the head unit because the sockets in the back of the head unit were not compatible with the plugs that came as standard with the car. A Haynes Manual or equivalent will give the colour codes for the various wires for the audio system.

My 1996 saab Turbo 9000 CSE turbo recently the speedometer and odometer stopped working, car felt like it would drag slightly while driving, then they started working again. Why?

those units are connected to the VSS sensor which also reports to the TCM for ratio changes
run the fault codes and see if the VSS is in the codes

I am loosing all coolant after about 50kms, no sign of leaks or overheating , i have a 1996 9000 cse with 2.3 turbo engine

If you don't see any leaks, then your head gasket is shot. Your coolant is going out your tailpipe.

1993 saab turbo CSE. limphome mode, possible head gasket leak

Things can only get get worse and that means more expense. Like mine, better to do the head gasket asap while it's not too expensive or at least get the head bolt torque settings checked after the rebuild as they may need tweeking.

Your car has traction control and is currently in limp home mode. you will not be able to fix this yourself as most shops are unable to fix these issues. However the most common problem is the safety valve located on the firewall passenger side.
