ISTR not too long ago Audi had a bad spate of DI failures, even in newish cars. It was attributed (it was said in Another NG) to problems at Bosch -- but this _may_ be utter bosh. When I asked about this at my local Saab dealer here in the UK, they did an Oscar-worthy job of looking mystified and innocent. Is DI failure regarded by Saab as a warranty item, BTW? -- Andrew Stephenson
