Just so we are all on the same page, the car is in the shop this time because my car recently overheated, blew a radiator hose and when i opened the hood i noticed that the oil mixed into the coolant again. the last time oil mixed into the coolant, the car was still under warranty so the dealer used a buddy mechanic of his to diagnose and install a new oil cooler. the shop the car is currently in is one of the shops recommended on this site, ive used them in the past with a 900 i used to own.
The oil pressure issue had seemed to go away after a recent oil change, but i have a crazy feeling, its all part of the current situation.
So the car is in a shop i do trust who specializes in saabs. their recommendation is to take the head to the lab for testing and if in good shape refinishing. at this point i cant think of any other option. the oil cooler and the head (or head gasket) are the only two ways oil could enter the coolant if i am not mistaken.
