There's an independent specialist near Baldonnell aerodrome but unfortunately I don't remember his name. There's another indy saab shop in Fairview called C.D. Motors (ask for collin).

Alternatively if you have a good general mechanic you can buy all your parts online from www.partsforsaabs.com and www.elkparts.com and get your local to service it, and save a good bit of money.

Elkparts are pricey so it pays to shop around once you figured out the part number you need.

Hi,

Bought my Saab from a Saab dealer in Monaghan, their approach to service is poor. Have also had car at a Dublin Saab dealers service department with little satisfaction.

So, I'm looking for a North Midlands (Meath, Westmeath, Longford, Cavan or Roscommon etc.) Independent Saab specialist if anyone has any good experiences to share.

Thanks.

I have used these guy a few times for my 93, they can plug in your saab and give you all the error codes etc... Much cheaper then a saab main dealer

I did my saab phase a couple of years ago, travelled the country to all of the 'specialists' who all claimed to be the most knowledgeable and didnt speak highly of the competitors.. Spent a fortune chasing gremlins and in the end up my local mechanic fixed it.. Lesson being that it wasn't a complex fix, it was complicated by people making decisions from experience opposed to diogenes.
