True, but I find the monkeys that work in brake shop tend to be pretty simple. Plus they tend to use the cheapest available parts so they can maximize their profit margins.

Then you know what the quality of the parts you put in were. > > >> or transmission shop the trans. > > > The liklihood of needing transmission work is so low that if it would > happen, yes, I'd go to a dealer or Saab Specialist.
