Subject: Re: 98 900s turbo problems?
I own a large rebutable Service Center in Southeastern MA.
Do me a favor and read the brand name on the compressor. It is a tag
on top on the rear with the drive belt (loosly) around the pulley.
Saab has yet to graduate to an automatic tensioner!
We work on dozens of these and I suspect one compressor
manufacturer(or Saab) for inadequate compressor oil during assembly,
which is why they are failing. Please let me know.
