Re: How can you tell what year/model these are for?

At Noel- Not really able to decider per model and year from the sheet alone. Would need to know your part number and just find it on the list. As noted at the top of the report, this is only for items with a backorder status of more than TEN items. So if eight are backordered, they will not be on this faxed sheet. Dealers recently got a new parts system with locator capabilities so they can track stock in Saab's warehouses and also search other dealers in their region to see if one has it on the shelf. Last year used this to hunt down a new throttle cable for a '92 900 auto vert, found it in Texas.
At nwas- There are always No ETA items. Pretty much a nicer way to say its going to be a long time till they are available. Sometimes will list as No ETA, No Supplier. Those tend to take at least 8 months+ to sort out. Its one thing if the washer bottle for your 9000 is not available, quite another if your key transponder for 9-3SS is as well.
A new term on this list have not seen before is "delivery on hold". Means the parts are in supply but from a supplier who is owed money and has told Saab to stop selling. Parts guy at dealer says should soon work out when they get all the suppliers paid etc.
