I'm in the "should I sell my Saab to a better DIY" vs. "I love it and never will part with it" mode. so, here's a list of lots of repairs over last year (88k-100k) and a few before that post-warr. just wondering what items you think I will also soon be facing? the last 12k have killed me in repairs of over $4,000 in a year!! I did not include tires and brakes and routine services of course. 1999 9-5SE 2.3lpt sedan
