When i took the car into the dealer just before car hit 50k (9 days after warrenty exspired) i told them about the cold start. She said she would get saab to pay and they would remove and clean the head. Saab had not been covering this common issue in the past but now all three big players in Or. and Wa. are reccomending this to anyone haveing cold start issues and they are pressuring saab to pay. She said she has seen alot of them with this issue over the last two years (as cars hit 30k plus) and she also said that when they opened mine up it was the worst one they have seen yet. I was using premium at a card pump station (CNC) NEVER AGAIN! From now on Shell, Union 76 or (believe it or not) ARCO. Now not only have they removed the head but its having a complete valve job they were so terribly gunked up. Oh well, at least i know it will perform much better when i get it back. Maybe i will trade it in for the '03 9-3 conv. they have.....hmmmmm.
