May or may not be of any interest....
Just replaced my D.I cassette on my 53 plate 9-5 Aero. Had a intermittent engine light on, fault codes read as coil pack 1 error (something like that), I thought it ran fine but the thought of sudden engine failure made me get one.

Part numbers - mine was 9197559 but i replaced with 55559955, both are interchangeable.
Fitting took literally 10mins, even for a ham fisted person like me.

Although it maybe a placebo effect it feels a lot faster, better response throughout the rev range and mpg has improved. The 1 i removed had a hairline crack in it, not sure if that was the cause, but keeping it in the boot as an emergency 'just in case' one.

The aftermarket ones are worse apparently, mine is a genuine Saab one so hopefully will never need the spare.
