On a recent road trip through the Adirondacks mountains, my car started to exhibit some funk. During uphill climbs going 75 – 80 MPH, the check oil level indicator turned on. If you’re familiar with Saab’s this indicator will not clear its self, so it is difficult to determine if the oil was simply shifting away from the censor during the uphill climb at a good speed. So at the next exit I pull over and check the engine oil. It is hot, so I’m expecting it to read higher than normal. And it does, but no where near empty as the indicator suggested. So I decided to continue on and the warning flashes up again. I pull over and the same situation.
Now that I have time and I’m in Montreal for the next little while, I’m taking my Saab in for servicing. I’ve asked them to check on this oil level indicator as well as do the warranty work that I asked them to complete during the first scheduled servicing–but they failed to complete.
The car goes in tomorrow and will probably be there all day. I’ll post about my experiences as soon as I get my car back.
