That's a lot of money.
But then again, if they are using Saab oem parts all over they have to charge retail price (or just a tad short).
Some shops not familiar with a certain brand also tend to use Alldata or Mitchell on Demand for their pricing structure and those sources use full retail pricing for everything.
Full retail price gets you up to about $700.00 in parts only and that is including the whole serpentine belt tensioner with steel pulley ($209.00) which in most cases are not needed. It also include the middle pulley that some shops and owners now remove and use a "short belt" instead with good results.
So in my eyes it doesn't look like they have too much Saab experiance.
The same work would be about $500.00 at my shop using the short belt option and pads and rotors.
This is of course that the 95 900 is not a V6 and that they are talking about the timing belt as well.
