Do initial Saab batteries have twist off caps that encourage you to top up water levels? If so, have you been using distilled water? Anything else will contain minerals that can shorten the battery's life. I know because my '89 Volvo came with such a battery and I naively added bottled water to top up the water level. Needless to say, it wasn't long before that battery died. Also, have you noticed how replacement batteries (especially the ones from Sears) seem to be programmed to die a day or two after the warranty period expires?
