Find the 60,000 mi service checklist for this (or any other) car and go through it first. Then blow the rest on interior/exterior cosmetics, Bodywork, paint, headliner, floormats, etc.. Then go to Pep Boys and buy a smiley face air freshener to hang from the rear view mirror :-) -- :-) "tony roth" <rothnopsamport.com> wrote in message news:eGdy5.14664$0y5.853443nopsam3.onemain.com... > Its been well maintained until the last two years but still gets oil every > 3k had a saab shop look at it last year they said most every thing looked > ok. he said the brakes needed fixing (just new pads).
