Reputable Saab repair service/person in the DC, MD area?

[Barefootn]

Does anyone know of a reputable Saab repair service/person in the DC, MD area? I took my car to FArina in Lanham, MD and after several calls and 2 weeks was told that they give up on repairing the car. The part (thermostat sensor) was impossible for them to get.

I need help, but don't want to drive 40-50 miles to get it and make the condition worse.

Thanks.

The part (thermostat sensor) was impossible for them to get.

Do you mean the coolant temperature sensor? They should be easy to find.

I was told it was the thermostat in the engine.

It still may be a bit out of your way but I have gone to Brewer's Saab near Hagerstown. I'm sure they could fix it.

and aside from that Thermostats aren't impossible to find

You can even get the housing which most people replace because the original housing was plastic and prone to cracking (or so I heard at least)

Wow Captain,
I thought the part would be a lot more expensive. The Aftermarket site is great! Wish I was gonna be in CT on Sunday, there are a few small cosmetic parts I'd like to get cheaply.

Thanks.

Oh don't worry, there are plenty of other parts that ARE expensive
