the bolt was installed.

But going through the partnumbers again, one very interesting thing came up.
The partnumber on that bolt that I beleive is of substandard quality have been superseeded again to a new partnumber. This must have happened in the last 6 month.

All in all, the 16V 4 cyl have been going through 4 different part numbers on the cylinder head bolts.
7518335 was installed from 85 to about 96-97. Than a number came along that I haven't even seen in production, 9129909. After that the 9185307 (which I feel is the bad one)was installed around 97 and up until maybe a couple of years ago.
And now suddenly a new number have emerged 5955794.

So maybe Saab have figured it out this time. I'm going to order in a couple of the new ones to see what they look like.

And no, you can't get the oldest from Saab anymore. But maybe if you raid some junk yards.
