Hey folks,
I am a first time Saab owner - bought a 99 9-5 v6 with 90000 miles in March. Only after I bought it did I realize all the problems that the v6 can have. Anyway, a couple of weeks ago the check engine light came on, and I took it to the dealer to get the codes and then to an independent mechanic to see what they could to. I believe the codes were 1301 and 0301. Dealer said it was the ignition coils that needed to be replaced at the cost of $1000, indie said they thought they might be able to fix it with the 90000 mile service. That needing to be done anyway and being the cheaper of the two options, I went with that.
Check engine light is still on and flashes at times of acceleration. I also have noticed knocking in the engine. Any recommendations from you all? Other than this, I love the car.
