My love/hate relationship with my Saab. (I hate to love it.). Tuesday, November 24, 2009. Revenge of the Saab, Part 4. Yesterday was another visit to the mechanics for Rag Taap. I am having, yet again, ACC problems. In fact, I'm having the exact ACC problem I had 2 years ago and fixed August 08—the AC compressor. Rather then tell my story regarding this fucking problem again, you can read about it here:. Revenge of the Saab, Part 1. Revenge of the Saab, Part 2. Revenge of the Saab, Part 3.

My love/hate relationship with my Saab. (I hate to love it.). Thursday, March 4, 2010. A spring letter to the Viggen. My dear RAG TAAP,. It's that time of year again.

My love/hate relationship with my Saab. (I hate to love it.). Tuesday, August 26, 2008. Revenge of the Saab: Part 3. Just got the call. Yep, new AC compressor which is fine since that's what I was expecting. What I. Expecting was over three hours of labor! 30140 for the labor alone. No, that doesn't include the parts. The actual compressor is going to run me $200 for a remanufactured one on eBay (includes s and h). And the hits just keep on coming. Labels: drive off cliff. Saab 9-3 Viggen convertible.

March 2015
http://saabblaag.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
My love/hate relationship with my Saab. (I hate to love it.). Friday, March 27, 2015. In 2012, I was disgusted. The final straw? The radiator. Four months after spending too much money on a special ramp to tow the Viggen to Colorado, the radiator went out. After all we'd been through, I had to concede that ours was a relationship of give and take. I did all the giving, Vig did all the taking. So I said, "enough is enough," and I let my baby go. Anyway, fast forward to March 2015. We're Back!

My love/hate relationship with my Saab. (I hate to love it.). Friday, February 20, 2009. All subsidiaries must go! So, Saab is filing for bankruptcy- or rather the GM subsidiary. Saab, files for bankruptcy. It appears the Swedes won't help GM by giving them more money. I'm shocked! Note the exaggerated sarcasm. What does this mean for me and my Saab? Note even more exaggerated sarcasm. Read the full story here: CTV.ca: Saab files for bankruptcy protection from creditors. Links to this post.

Revenge of the Saab: Part 2

My love/hate relationship with my Saab. (I hate to love it.). Monday, August 25, 2008. Revenge of the Saab: Part 2. I love my guys at SC. They are always so helpful. I was ready to take the engine apart and put in a shorter belt to bypass the AC compressor. Then reason took hold. While they may be equipped with a massive garage and every tool imaginable, I do not. So, I patiently waited until my indie guy opened at 7:30 this morning and called him.
