You might be right - but we don't know for sure. Looking back I think it was foolish to even drive the car with a rapidly increasing noise from the timing belt area - no matter how carefully (low rpm, avoiding fast engine speed changes).
What really shocked me was the theoretical total cost of repair without Saab's contribution ($7600). I have been told this is about as much as if the timing belt goes out on an 8-cylinder Porsche 928! Now, someone please explain why a repair on a (6 cylinder) Saab costs as much as for a limited production, super-luxury-high-performance-and-whatever-else fancy car...
Other than that I'm just thrilled to have my car back!
