ok in a series of events designed to make me feel like the worlds worst mechanic, I went to remove the RF wheel this morning to get at the alternator. Lugs bolts off - check. Pull wheel off - urk. urk. URK. Wheel not budging. Twisting, turning, kicking, threatening it with premature death, no difference. She's on there good and tight.
One thing I have done on other cars is remove wheels. Do Saabs have some kind of electromagnetic wheel alarm device that has to be turned off? or special Scandanavian wheel adhesive? The lugnuts are just for show? The owners manual didn't mention it.
But assuming this is some nefarious result of corrosion and maybe some mistake by the tire installation tech last month, is there anything I can do? Soak the car in WD40? hmm...
