We bought a used Saab 9-5 SE Turbo Wagon (37K miles) last week. We loved the car when we bought it. However, there is one aspect of our Saab we are not particularly happy about.
The car has given really low mileage over the past three days: 17.8 miles per gallon on an average (mostly freeway miles). We have two questions:
1) How has the experience of other Saab owners been with mileage?
2) Do you know / suggest / recommend any good Saab repair shops near Fremont, CA or somewhere in the South Bay.
Thanks!

You should be getting around 26-27 MPG. I have the SE sedan and was quite happy with it. I am assuming that you have the V-6, and it sound like you are having a fuel control issue which is complicated by 1000 sensors that could be failing. On the V-6, you may want to install a new Crank Position Sensor. You can take the car to any mechanic who has the codes for the Saab, there should be quite a few in your area.
Good luck!

Maybe it's your heavy right foot? Sorry I can't recommend any shops only think I can suggest is to let your fingers do the walking.
