I have a 1995 900S and have had almost the exact same problems. Little cosmetic junk like the visor broke. My newest problem is the driver side latch to raise the seat is no longer working. How long did it take your mechanic to fix? Or did you not fix the problem? I also replaced the window/sunroof electrical switches because they were beginning to stick. A pricey part part: $260 I was adventurous last weekend and tried to fix the latch problem myself. However, I discovered I would have to remove the seat from the car in order to get to a part I had to replace. At the next service, I'll probably pay someone else to do it. Otherwise, I love my 1995 Saab. I've never had any engine troubles and the visor, latch and electrical panel have been my only problems ever. -Phillip "Ken Ferguson" <kenfergusonnopsam.com> wrote in message news:nBvB6.3188$yh.305949nopsamread2.prod.itd.earthlink.net... > I had a 96 900SE coupe before trading it in on a wagon.
