so, nursing along my favorite car (2002 9-3 hatch) with 318k. My mechanic installed new valve cover gasket recently, as one plug was pretty dirty and I was noticing a bit of a skip. This was after the car sat for 5 weeks awaiting install of new ignition switch (Saab Genuine Ignition Switch (4943692)
can sitting for an extended period cause a sludge problem? Car is my daily driver and never sits for more than 2 or 3 days. Has always had synthetic oil, changed every 4,000 to 5,000 miles. I am leaning towards an oil pressure issue, mechanic thinking possible sludge.
trying to keep this car running because it is a great car. But I fear it may be telling me it is time to find another.
