Anyone in Arizona with a Viggen? HELP!

As some of you have read, I have a 2002 Viggen (CPO warranty still) with a bad detonation problem. The dealer has acknowledged the detonation, but has been unable to fix the issue. The dealer, as well as Saab USA, keep telling me that everything is fine and the detonation is "normal". They claim that the issue is present because of the heat here and the 10% ethanol in our fuel. I have to call BS though. The detonation is still there (and actually worse) when the outside air temperature is lower. I also tried running several tanks of fuel mixed with 100 octane (unleaded) racing fuel with no different results. I never had this problem until this particular dealer did some HEAVY maintenance/warranty work on the car last year.
Is there anyone out here in the PHX/Tucson area with a Viggen? Or possibly a 2.3T 9-5? I'm curious to see if anyone else is having this issue. Thanks.
