It's common for machine shops to say you need new valve stem guides which can adds hundreds to their charges. My neighbor was a Saab dealer mechanic before things fell apart. He said they NEVER had to replace valve stem guides. A friend just did his first HG on his '03' 9-5 Aero at 310K. His guides were still good. His timing chain was still within specs too !! Mobil 1 all the way on that car.
