...have been quite pleased with its performance (my first turbo after a Volvo '96 950 5 cyl and a '98 960 6 cyl). OK, the DIC was replaced at 40k (under warranty), so don't lissen to those who claim they fixed it back then...
...and whenever this rascal gets back from his stoopid trip to Sweden ___;)___I have SWEDECAR swapping out the original heater by-pass valve with the e-European no-brainer ($29 online...don't know about his hours, but it's another time bomg along with that DIC).
At 2,000 miles, I had Anders (Swedecar here on Saabnet) replace my dirt-throwing OEM brake pads with SATISFIED PRO Ceramics/PRO Performance and...at 75k, he commented two weeks ago that I still had 60+% left on them...forget the Akebono crap and review the comments on this brand at Tirerack.com...jes' sayin'...
Otherwise, it's pretty bullet-proof...oh yeah...check out if there are any squeeks up at the sunroof...closed or open...a pain that is cited here in this site, it appears.
If I had a total this week, I'd go for the thing you are evaluating.
Good luck!!!
