Well, much ado about nothing.
I just became one of those guys that whine about anything.
I stopped at a little repair shop not far from my office and the guy had the right tool - a special ratchet socket which he hammered onto the end of the bolt. He was surprised by how tight it was; he got it off after about 10 minutes. Had new plug in hand.
$20 spent; he changed the oil while I was there. I had some Mobil1 in the car for our Volvo, so now it is in the Saab.
Also I like the V6 better than my 04 Aero,now gone. I just discovered the Afterheater in time winter! I will re-initiate the V6 debate here again soon.
I think my negative reaction to the Dealer was my overall customer interaction experience. When you spend over $800 you should get some smiles, encouragement, thank yous, suggestions, and great car comments, yada yada yada.
