My indie mechanic doesn't consider the DI a "common" failure item. He's been a Saab indie since the '70's and I respect his experience. When I asked he said he sees one now and then, but not frequently. He did mention that the current black unit seems to have a higher failure rate than the older red ones, fwiw.
While considering whether to fork out for an extended warranty (I'm at 47k miles) I initially thought this DI thing was one check on the "get the warranty" side. But then I realized, heck I'm probably going to soon buy a trunk spare anyway, so essentially I'd neuter the warranty's potential to help me on that one.
