My car is in for serivce to hopefully stop my smoke problem, yesterday i called a different saab dealer and talked cars with him for a while. He said he's had a couple in with porous blocks, and that they were common on these cars because of the aluminum blocks that werent properally heated when they were made. The synotoms of this is losing coolant and them not being able to locate where its going too. The only way to fix the problem is by replacing the block. My dealer said on the other hand that they've never had any with porous blocks in before.
Any one heard of this before ?
Even if something like this is out of warrenty shouldnt the manufacture still cover it because it was a casting problem in the engine?
