Do you have the Ingals torgue thing on your car? If not, I think you need to. Cause if Im looking at that right, that looks like the flex on the front pipe. Cause it looks as though, its bolted to your header. I've seen those break on Saab's before, but only on cars with mods or cars other parts of the exhaust damaged/rusted. But, never on a almost new car.

lol i'm drivein a decent amount of power thro the car(check the sig) so i dont think that helps and we all know the stock mount SUCK!

I've got the ability to get my hands on poly mounts and TQ braces i just havent made the trip to do it yet.

i've got power and an aftermarket exhasut and both lead to the faliure of that pice but warrenty is covering it. hopein the comes in today!

as for the radio i have NO idea but if you need a stocker you can use mine..just let me know.

the 1st gear problum could be the roll pin goin on you(its only happend to me like 4 times)

also, I don't think the motor rocking had anything to do with it breaking, it looks more like the exhaust piping overheated too many times and cooled down to break like that. I'd say you stayed in gear too long for a few times going WOT and deaccelerating.

I got a 75k warranty but a $100 deductible on any issues with the car NOT related to the powertrain.
