I have an '07 SC 9-3
I looked at one before this one that I bought. The owner left the key in the ignition and drained the battery to zero. It took a tow and reprogramming of his CIM etc. and cost some big bucks. I know batteries cost more these days but would consider replacement because I have heard of batteries dying suddenly. With most cars it wouldn't matter but these computers are dependent on current to remember themselves and you. Maybe Swedecar will chime in on this thread...
