    I guess depending on where you work, in Schaumburg, it may be far for you, there is a place called Swedish Car Specialists. Have used them for years and are not the type to take advantage of anyone, ever.


    Also, make sure your timing belt is with in spec's. The engine, like many modern car engines is a interference design, meaning if the timing belt breaks, so do some valves, expensive fix for a $250.00 maintenance item.

    DanR '94 964 355,000 miles (121,000 on the new engine), which I bought from them.
