      Maybe I don’t know though. My saab mechanic is a complete enthusiast and saabophile. He works on them remotely out of the back of his 95 wagon so he did all the work in my garage, and he really wants a new generation 95 like mine, but he will not break down and buy one because he is afraid of all the problems that crop up with them. I told him “you’re a mechanic and you know I’m inside and out” and he said “yeah but I don’t want to fool with all that hassle !”so that should be my clue to get out. he has eight Saab 900s and 93s

      Meeee tooo. It runs so quiet. The timing chain was a disaster waiting to happen. It was rubbing against the head of a bolt inside there, and had rubbed it completely down to a nub. so the timing chain was making noise all the time, and I was mistaking the sound for injectors.

      I just had to. I mean. I did. Then it got deeper and deeper. Busted this. Broken that. I may dip out soon

      @@JoesGoldenGarage I am not from the US, i am from europe therefore my english spelling is not the best, and most cars have timing chains that fail, my friends e34's timing chain failed, i'd say it's a regular thing to go on cars.

      My god yes. I thought this engine turbo transmission combination would be pretty reliable, but I’m guess I’m thinking of GM 25 years ago.
