Dudes and dudettes,
Recentely I acquired a used 1990 9000CD (my first saab) for a good price
and have started maintenance on it as most of you suggested on this BB.
Now, I called the dealer to book an appointment to have the AT fluid replaced and the moron quoted me a price of $300 + Tx. I could not believe the insanity (3 hours of laber, why ? and $142 in parts how many parts is there to it ?) .....
Now, I live in an apartment building and don't have the luxury of changing the fluid myself (landlord won't allow it as I checked).
The issue is I will have another local mechanic do it for a fraction of the price, but It does upset me quite a bit since I love this car and am starting to develop loyalty to saab but with such horrific stories I won't even think about owning a new saab and have it maintained at the dealer.
End of Story.
