Not *every* aspect of any car is well designed. My Nissan requires you to drop the fuel tank to replace the fuel pump. If they had put an access cover in the floor (like my Toyota) it would be a 10 minute job. Instead it took a couple of hours and a lot more finesse and tools. The same car had foolish washer nozzles that stand up high to fire over the wipers. I've broken at least 4 of them clearing snow from the car. I now keep a supply in stock. Most of my recent cars have had the oil filter mounted horizontally. You can't remove them without dripping oil all over the engine. My friend's Ford Windstar has a removable center seat - but it weighs so much you need two people (men or very large women) to remove it. The list goes on. There are bad designs in one area or another of all cars. However, I *really* think you should sell your Saab. If you don't believe in your car you will generate bad Karma and you are sure to have trouble. Bob
