Hi all, With all this talk of timing chains at the moment, can anyone tell me when SAAB recommend changing them? I've just bought a 9000 S 2.3 Turbo with 118,000 miles on it. Should I be looking to change the chain and is it much of a job? My old 900 Turbo never had a chain changed and I sold that with 200,000 on it, still going strong. I have heard that when you change the chain on a Balance-Shaft engine, it is often neccessary to change all of the sprockets as well, is this true? Thanks, Pete.
