Brian,
Edmunds maintenance prices the job at $396
My local dealer is $599
My local in is $399
so $626 is a little high.
Wayne

Like it was said you could do everyting except maybe the belt.
Parts are $150 an indy should do the belt for less then $100.
$250 total it's probably what I would do
Good luck

These "special price" services do not typically include all of the additional procedures recommended by Saab at each service interval.
