Subject: Re: AC Compressor Failure - 1997 900S


thx for the offer -- unfortunately it's not compatible. I found out today that a new compressor is $700! I have asked the dealer to split the cost w/ me -- all they can say is no. If so, I'll pursue it w/ Saab directly. They too can only say no. Thx again.
