Oil, gaskets, and "check engine" problems

| Question: |
94 900SE 2.3 (non-turbo) automatic. The check engine light
came on 5 days ago, and my husband checked the oil level
and it was lower than usual, although we had only recently
changed the oil. The engine was making a ticking noise and
had a burning smell. We took it to the mechanic and he said
the reason was because the valve gaskets had broken and
come loose. He replaced them and 3 days later, the check
engine light came on again. The oil level is fine, there is no
burning smell anymore, and it is not making any unusual
noises. Could it be that the code was not reset properly, or
another engine problem? --Kara. |

| It could be either, I would advise taking the car to a SAAB dealer for a diagnosis visit to find out which codes are causing the check engine light to register | |
