Cars have a personality and you Saab dealer knows the personality of your car. On one level that means that they know where to look for problems that can occur on your car. On another level it means that while your car is under warranty your Saab mechanic is looking hard at your car finding things to fix because it will mean more money in his pocket. That coupled with better oil at the dealer(Unless you specify Mobil one),a better filter(I have cut them apart) and the fact that if your heating system quits working on one side, the repair is $1000 and you are 9 days out of warranty(happened today) I assure you you will be in a better position if you have your service done at the dealer.
