I expect that Saab did not build any engines in 1999 that did not have this problem. Saab knew about it and so did the dealers, and everyone on this BB knows about it. We recommend that the bolts be re-torqued to prevent gasket failure.
The miles are not the issue, the bolts were never torqued to spec in the first place.
