The day before I was hearing some 'ticks' under the hood (thought is was bad gas) and then the next day went down to 4th to pass and then suddenly lost power.
I knew about 'some' Viggens with cracked pistons but I was being ignorant thinking that those were happening to modded ones. Mine is 100% stock...this shouldn't happen to a stock car driven weekends with only 54k miles. I drive my C900T harder.
I'd be very interested in the class action suit but doubt it would go anywhere because of the myth these cars are driven hard and always modded.
Also within the past week my friends are planning on selling their Aero's because of my problem. I was the reason they chose SAAB and now I'm going to be hung out to dry after owning the car 8 months.
Question... Did you do anything different when rebuilding the car? What pistons did you use? Any moddes added to help prevent dealing with this in the future?
Also how did you find out how many Viggens blew. I'd be interested in doing some leg work to see if there's a case.
send an email if you want..
