Once you have the transmission squared away, make sure you change the fluid and filter every 24,000 miles or two years, whichever comes first. >From reading the newsgroup and the www.saabnet.com Bulletin Board, I think one of the biggest problems with the automatic transmissions is lack of or poor preventative maintenance. I have owned 3 Saabs, an 83 900T, 87 900S and 87 9000S. All have been five speeds, and I made sure the oil was changed every 20,000 to 25,000 miles. The transmission on my 83 900T had over 251,000 original miles, when it was totalled. Ken Washington 87 9000S 87 900S 83 900T Upper Marlboro, MD
