I too am leery of a used '89, because more than likely it will crap out as well as the first one did. That said, you might be able to buy a couple used '89s for the price of a rebuilt one.... ehh, calculated gamble, you know.
Keep in mind there is the option that Andrew mentions....accept dead A/C (it will probably die eventually in this car anyhow), and praise the absence of the irritating "shift up" light (why must this persist even in new Saabs?!)
I don't really hate my car...I love my car...I'm just sick of dealing with crap like this... Saabnet helps solve the problem, but it doesn't remove the frustration. I'm looking at a new 9-3 under warranty now... will hate payments, but enjoy less of the hassle of the old car. Sometime this weekend I need to figure out whether it's worth the investment to replace the ECU and fix the A/C.
Good luck my friend,
'Roo
