SAAB 9-5

clicky

What is everyones thoughts on this? Good deal? Bad Deal? I am really liking this especially for it being a 5spd and the 4cyl turbo ecotec. A lot of options, good gas mileage, 4drys still and pretty good miles for the age of the car.

discuss

thanks

sounds like a good car, you should go see and drive it first to be sure.

Obviously drive the car first. Things to check for, check the a/c vent operation (make sure it blows air where you command it to) because the heater box arms break, $300 part but 20 hour job. Check the timing cover for oil seepage/ leaks. Oil pressure sensor is pretty common.

Honestly the 9-5 and older 9-3 are decent cars. The newer 9-3, esp. 03-04, are terrible cars.

The Ecopower engines are not the same as the Ecotec engines. Two completely different families.
