Just wanted to send out a big 'THANKS' to all those who have contributed to the many FAQs, DIY website links, and misc. posts here on the board. With that info, here is what I successfully completed on my own this weekend:
1) Short Belt mod - $32 pulley, $4 tube of Loc-Tite, and $41 GM belt. 2 hours of work for a non-DIY guy (only change oil and swap summer-winter tires)
2) ACC Sensor fan noise - cleaned fan/motor w/ a paint brush and added a little light oil. $0 combined with 30 minutes of work (couldn't figure out how to get to it) and no more noise!
3) Power antenna mast replacement - $12 replacement part (as opposed to the $65 from local Saab dealer) and 1 hour of work.
4) Adjusted rear hatch bumpers so it 'pops' open every time.
Next up.......New battery (I found my radio code), rear sway bar, airbox inlet tube mod, e-code headlight lenses, and possibly a speaker upgrade(depends how much money is left over after all the other stuff). I'm sure there will be some engine-related items that come up in the future, but I will leave that stuff to my indie mechanic.
Thanks again.
