My wife's daily driver.

- Replace the rear pads with Akebono Ceramics. On this car the ceramic pads work great!
- Upper radiator hose, particularly the plastic Tee fitting, was a weak spot in high heat climates. Luckily this part is now available again from Orio. Or you can buy the machined Aluminum Tee sold by Strictly Saabs in Florida
- Plugs wear quicker than expected. Plan on replacing at 40K mile intervals. At 115K miles the four ignition coils will be approaching end of life too.

Overall this car needs very little maintenance! My wife has 90K miles on hers.
