Now have my Viggen in for repair of intermittent dead battery at cold temperatures. Any ideas?
I called a new dealer to book an appointment and explained problem. Since I had recently moved, and the new dealer did not have all my service history, he immediately took the liberty of assuming that I did not do any maintenance for 70,000 km. Furthermore he accused that therefore the battery - which is apparently not maintenance free - must have been low on electrolyte and failed - AND WOULD THEREFORE NOT BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. Ended up having the this dealer call me previous one to verify my exemplary service records. The new dealer was still reluctant. This is only one in a sting of poor service attitudes I have experienced from SAAB.
Meanwhile have taken the Viggen in for diagnosis and proper repair. Hopefully they don't just assume it is the battery and replace it without checking the alternator or any of the other unreliable electronic gizmos that everyone on this site appears to be having problems with. What is a DI Cassette anyways?
