need part no longer made
4 Answers
GM no longer makes the hose and dealers offer no alternatives. I have done extensive online searches, including dismantlers, and find none that match my engine or VIN. There is also a discrepancy between vendors as to the correct part number which compounds the problem.
Go to junkyard, be done with it. It is not normal for these to crack, so finding good ones will be cake.
One more thing, certain years did NOT have the MAF. I believe they started putting them in 2005 and up. Older than that, does not have one. Look for 05 and newer, they're all the same for the I6 4.2 engine anyway. Look at Envoy, Trailblazer, Bravada, Ascender, and Rainier. Don't think the Saab came with the I6, not sure.
