Subject: Sorry....


I quite agree with the rest of the guys, your dealer clearly sucks. I¥ve replaced my headlight (damaged in fender-bender) and I can just tell you that the only possibility to get a leak is if you use screws (for att the headlights) that are too long. Clearly a misstake from the assembly line, but it¥s unforgivable to not notice this when the dealer replaced your lights. Using the wrong screws again ofcourse made a brand new sets of holes.......! Also, trying to fix a clearly mechanic problem in your engine by replacing some exterior equipment - well, really no comment necessary...! So, I really feel sorry for your experience with SAAB, and especially your local dealer. /Magnus the swede MB2day <nieuwsgrnopsamectmbl NO SPAMMM .demon.nl> skrev i diskussionsgruppsmeddelandet:u1i6qqpaub87b1nopsam.supernews.com... > 4 months ago I bought my first 9-3.
