I am a 9000 owner for years and like the repairs I have been able to do on my own and maintenance as well. 232,345 miles now and ZF auto-box tranny said "no more". I do not plan to fix.
I am thinking of a 2007 9-3 SC as a replacement. It looks complicated with every part needing to be married and divorced -and water-pump running off of balance chain? Dang! Was this design meant to keep the dealership service department happy or what?
It rates as a good year on Consumer Reports and does not have the faulty wheel pressure sensors like other years.
Will I or could I be happy with this purchase? Price is right.
Let me know your insights and thoughts please. Wife's 9-5 takes plug and play salvage yard parts without Tech II and programming.
