Hi all, relatively new here. I recently picked up my second Saab, an 02 9-5 Aero SC, and it seems to have a small oil and possible coolant leak. The mechanic used by the previous owner noted a small oil "seep" (as he calls it) from the head gasket. Is it worth attempting a re-torque or, better yet, to replace the head bolts on on '02? I don't think this year was part of that particular TSB, but it is a late '01 production model. Apart from these leaks, which manifest as steam from beneath the heat shield and are so small they seldom actually show up when I check the oil and coolant, the car is running perfectly. It doesn't overheat and has plenty of power, so I'm hoping this will fix the issue.
