Thanks to those who have tried to help me with this ongoing problem.
Unable to definitively determined the source of the problem, ie blower controller, blower, or ACC module......I've decide to go in....
As the core was leaking anyway I am about to embark on the core and motor replacement venture. Picked up a new updated core kit for $95 and a new Bosch motor for $57 with new transitors for the controller for $10.40.....so for roughly $165.00 I can have all new system provided the ACC is not the culprit. Ya it'll cost me six hours of swearing and nuckle cutting of my time off on a Saturday, but that beats the heck out of $880 estimate and possibly rip off of unscrupulous repair shop....
We'll see how it goes and I'll post my prognosis, besides the core needed to be replaced anyway, Barleaks can only do so much, thats why the headliner finally started to go was because of the moisture put out by the broken heater core....
SAAB Engineering, NOT The best!! If this was not my son's car and he could afford another one as a poor student, it would be gone!!!!
Buy American, I'd never recommend a Saab to anyone!! Nice car as long as you do not want to own it for more than 3 years or 50,000 miles.!!
Why would anyone want to suffer the abuse and cost......unless you enjoy having your backside under the hood all year long.....its one thing after another even on a well maintained Saab
