Hi, I have a 2000 Saab 93 SE convertible and the driver side 5th bow cylinder is leaking badly. I have already replaced it with one i purchased from a savage yard. When I got the one from the salvage yard I check to see if there where any fluid leaks in the trunk, under the back seat and the drain cover but there was none. I connected the cylinder and used a teflon coating like the dealer recommended but the leak continues. My questions are: 1) Is there a way to see the leaking while the motor is operating? I would like to check if the hose itself is leaking. 2) Should i risk buying the $500 new cylinder, I affraid that it may fail too. I thinking maybe something is causing them to fail. 3) Is the any other fluid I can use the oil is $35 a bottle!
