Buy a 2002 or newer if you can Posted by Ian Glenday [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Buying a 99-9-5 need advice please saabers!!, simon MTL, Sun, 31 Oct 2004 06:00:24 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I have a 1999, 2.3lpt with 161,800 miles. If I was buying a 9-5 today it would be a 2002 or later. Too many problems with the early models that may have been resolved by 2002 which was an upgrade year. Items such as DIC and ACC which have been problematic will still be so in 2002s. Pulleys have not been fixed as far as anyone has reported. Preventive maintenance is the only recourse for that as of now.
