if the shifter suddenly felt very very loose, you may have a linkage problem. losing 5th and possibly reverse is a classic symptom, and since it no longer lines up, it's not always easy to tell you're in gear, or what gear you're in. However, an internal trans problem is not out of the question.
The mechanic is dishonest FOR SURE, though. it is not hard to find clutches for these cars. there's also a clutch inspection plate on the transmission thru which you can *see* the clutch. so either he knows saabs and wants to take you for a ride, or doesn't, and still wants to...
good luck
