Is this also the case in the 9.3? Is there a rash of failing direct ignition modules, or cassettes, in the 9.5 and 9.3? I have understood the principle if direct ignition in the 9000 nand have always been pleased by Saab engine manament . My mileage is great and although this is a 92 with approachig 170k miles, the annual emissions test always looks great. I am trying to decide whether tro spend serious money (for me) to maintain and retain my 9000S or get into something newer, but still a Saab. I would probably want to jump six or eight years and I love the hatch, the roomy back seet that I have now. I also do not want to become loaded with luxery that does not contribute to good driving. my 92 filled the bill mbut "Sven" is advancing in years. Any and all opinions, PLEASE. Malcolm
