Hey, has anyone else ever had a timing chain 'break' on them? At 123,000kms, after regular services, the timing chain went, bent cylinders, broke the key to the cam shaft, damaged and bent some valves and threw all sorts of metal shit all through the engine. Anyone else had that happen to them? I am currently approaching Saab Australia about this (out of warranty, obviously) but I was disgusted for this to happen to car I have owned for less than 3 years, bought from the car yard 'as new'. Any suggestions?
