Just guessing here, but the steering column replacement may not have been necesary. I had a clunking/knocking vibration that I could feel in the steering wheel and I talked to my dealer about it and they said that the fix is to replace the steering column. I went home and searched the BB, and found SWEDECAR's fix, which was to lube the slip joint at the base of the steering column. Problem solved! It all depends on how competent the dealer is. Sometimes they make something into a bigger job than is necesary. Other than that, the only common 9-5 issues you have experienced is wih the fuel tank baffles. This seems somewhat common on this board through all 9-5 years, and is usually shown by an erratic fuel gauge.
