headgasket replacement?
Posted by Narayan Nayar (more from Narayan Nayar) on Wed, 3 Nov 1999 18:12:30
Hello.

I've got a 1992 900s and I've recently discovered oil in the coolant
reservoir. My mechanic told me he's 99% sure it's a ruptured head gasket
or possibly a cracked head. He flushed the cooling system and told me to
drive it for a while to see if oil reappears in the reservoir.

Out of curiosity, does this happen often? Is a new head gasket in all
Saab owner's futures? If so, what does it cost to replace? (my mechanic
said around $1k).

Thanks
