but to drive a high-milage Saab without knowing where to get cheap parts and having a realiable independant mechanic (unless you're a DIYer) is a no-no. Your repair costs seem outrageously high and 1/2 of that could have been saved by sourcing your own parts and paying only labor. I don't mean to add insult to the injury but how you could agree to pay $678 for a washer resevoir and center muffler is beyond me, and window swiches for $235! Are they for real? I apologize if they are real and don't want to scare you but your auto tran is also a time bomb ticking on you and at the price you've been charged, you're looking at possible $4K. Not to mention the TCS which I'm surprised you you didn't mention anything about it. Seriously, I would recommend you get a reliable japanese car instead.
Sorry if this sounds harsh to you.
