...Have not had a mouse/chipmunk problem with our Saabs as yet, but chipmunk(s) did get into our '86 Mercedes and cause a number of problems. They chewed partway through the wiring to the fuel pump and also removed the coating on the wire to one headlamp. The resulting problems were intermitent(stumbling engine and flickering headlight)but eventually shut down the car. At a tech meeting of our MB Club, a MB factory rep. said the rodent problem was common in Europe where the European equivalent of our chipmunk took a liking to the insulation used on MB wiring at that time. I now pack mothballs into the rear subframe and under the hood near each headlight and appear to have solved the problem.
