Yes ....your shifting too fast...but only for the Saab ZF trans...no need to sugar coat the fact that the early manual boxes (at least the 91/92s) are a weak link. Especially 2nd gear. I love my 91...but there isnt a day goes by that I dont curse at the transmission. If I could decide on another car that could match the 9000s many other attributes I would probably sell. The only other choice I see is the Audi A4...but its just not quite right. Brand loyalty is one thing..particularly Saab folk...but when something stinks ,.it stinks. Some will say you shouldnt be "drag racing" with your 9000T...I say bullshit...fast acceleration from a standstill from a 200+ Hp/Torque sports sedan with a 5 speed box is not "abuse"..its just to be expected and shouldnt be hindered by an engineering flaw.
