Subject: 88 Saab 9000 Turbo timing problems?


About 8 months ago my Saab started to develop minor symptoms such as shifting hard (automatic), bad gas mileage, etc. Within a month and a half these problems became serious, so I brought it to the shop to get it checked out. The shop did complete diagnostics on the car and said everything was great except the timing was 9 degrees off so they fixed it. Now 6 months later the car is getting these same symptoms again. I am assuming it is the timing again, and will be bringing it to the shop again within the next few days. What could be causing the timing to become so misadjusted so quickly. Is this a common problem on Saab's. I've only had it for about 10 months and the repair bills have been quite costly (Turbo seized, new brakes, exhaust, tires, flywheel, etc) and I am worried this is just the start of greater problems. Should I be worried. Thanks for any help, Mike
