Hello all, a few days back a posted about my 9-3. For those of you who read it &offered a reply, this is what happened at the dealer--had car towed, radiator &water pump were replaced, they said the SID message reading "gearbox malfunction" was due to the program needing updating, this was done. They covered the cost of the new radiator, as well as installation, but charged me for a new water pump &install, the total was $760.00. At first, this seemed steep to me, but I was expecting the worst---a new transmission, so it def. could have been a lot worse! The fact that they went good on a new radiator made me happy. Also The fact that the car is only a little over warranty helped me out, I feel Cold Brook Saab treated me fair. The new radiator has a 1 year warranty. They said they have had a lot of issues with cooling systems on these models. Hopefully this will be the last major issue with the car for a while! The car is for the moment running &driving flawlessly.
Thanks for all your input &information.
