a malfunction in a car, especially Saabs. They seem to think that owners of Saabs have tons of money to throw at the car, one of them outright told me, "can't work on them foreign cars, should've bought an American car". I had an interrmittent starting problem, and had diagnostic equipment hooked up to the car, and all was well. And as long as a mechanic can hook up the computer, he's satisfied he's doing the best he can, when he says nothings wrong. But when it comes to checking each part INDIVIDUALLY, as per Bentleys, they either don't want to do it, or they don't know how! This applys not only to Saabs, but most cars. As per previous post, it's amazing you had to have a HEADGASKET replaced, what did that cost, $1500?, and that wasn't whats wrong with it. With the economy the way it is, employment and gas prices, the last thing someone needs is to throw money at a car. They must think we are all Rockefellers, who I'm told once said, If there is a problem to be solved...throw money at it.
