My car has 163K miles on it. I have been contemplating bringing it to a local Saab Independant shop to see what they think about what it would take to bring the ride quality back to close to when I bought it. I bought it when it had 75k miles on it. I have replaced rear shocks, front sway bar links. Front struts are original and I put spacers and shims in the rear to get the ride height back. I am assuming subframe bushings, control arm bushings , and rear bushings would be what it would need but want to see what they say and how much. Ofg course cost is an issue when talking about a 10 year old car with 160K miles. There will be other things that have yet to crop up like fuel pumps, motor mounts. The brake booster may also be on its way out. Water pump is original too but I could tackle all that.
