yeah that shop on Transit had a poor rep so when I was visiting the Buffalo area and had a TB issue so went to the Saab place in N Buffalo, unforgettable experience:
There were some hassles involved finding a competent dealer in the WNY area who had a TB in stock, but it led to one of my more humorous incident with a Saab - while in the shop in Kenmore NY getting the TB replace and making small talk with the service mgr I asked him why the TB would fail with such low miles.
The answer I expected was - it'a Saab , but lo and behold, he stated that "they will last a long time unless you put cheap gas like reservation gas in your car" ( there is a Seneca Indian reservation in the area - tax free gas)
I plead guilty as I stay 5 mins from the Indian Reservation and fill up there - but I did not own admit this to the service mgr. Just hoped they would fix the car and get me outta there, but had to wait 3 days for a TB to be shipped - they said that shop in on transit road had 1 in stock but wouldn't give it up.
