Some sections cover all 9000s, eg Brakes 364521 1985-1996, while other only cover a year or two, eg Electrical Systems 337048 is only 1987-1988. So I can still use them with my 1996 Aero. Much better than Haynes, although I still refer to that at times. We only have 3 Saab dealers in New Zealand, so we have to be self-sufficient . If I take my car into a local non-Saab garage, at least I can give him the service manuals to work from. -- Richard & Mary Sutherland-Smith 19 Webb Road, Wanganui 5001, NZ
