My wife's 9-5 is pretty new...mine has 269K miles Posted by Herb Hirsch [Email] (#114) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Herb Hirsch) on Thu, 18 Jan 2007 11:43:19 In Reply to: My 9-3SC is new, but I have 188,500 miles on my 9-5...., MI-Roger [Profile/Gallery] , Wed, 17 Jan 2007 04:54:31 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
The point is....whether it's a 9-3 or 9-5, following a good program of preventive maintenance works.
Out of all of the things you could prevetively changing fluids at recommended intervals is critical. Eg.: change the engine oil and filter every 5K miles (or more often if appropriate). Failure to change the oil and the resulting sludge is very expensive.
100K miles is not a lot. I've had 3-4 Saabs that I exceeded 100K miles in. 269K miles is a record for me....at this point I'll keep driving it until the new 9-3 or 9-5 is available.
