In my previous blog today I mentioned a knocking noise, and also the issue of low tyre pressures and wax on the windscreen that I can only guess that the Saab dealer put on.
I’ve just removed the wax from the windscreen and checked the spare tyre is at the correct pressure. It wasn’t. 52psi instead of 60psi. I doubt that they checked this tyre either.
I did, however, discover some free goodies! Sticky boiled sweets, a broken pen, a broken coathanger, a screwdriver, a padlock, and a number of other objects – see the photograph. How they checked that my toolkit was complete I do not know – perhaps they didn’t bother to check, or perhaps they did but simply didn’t bother removing the junk next to it that shouldn’t have been there.
Perhaps the knocking from the suspension was the padlock rattling around? Who knows!

Junk that came with my "Saab Approved Used" Saab 9-3. A padlock, chewing gum, a broken pen, imperial mints (I think), wine gums, a broken coat hanger, a business card, a Cafe Nero loyalty car, a towing eye, a screwdriver. See what else you can spot!
