... away from the dealer and had a local quick-oil-change place do a 5K oil change (at 65K mi) and service on my 04 ARC because it is out of warranty and getting to the dealer of even an SAAB indie is quite out of the way. I supplied the Mobil1 and let them address the rest after seeing that they did have an oil filter. To my surprise, they were unable to either check the air cleaner or the transmission fluid(5-sp manual) because both supposedly are "dealer items" requiring special tools. Is that right? If so, what do you DYI guys do?
