Oh, 9-3 sorry. AND most importantly! Change the oil filtre every time you change oil. And do not use a crap filtre. A FRAM filtre is garbage. Treat them like radioactive waste. Their orange garbage has no reason to be near any piece of internal-combustion engines. I like Saab OEM filtres, as they look cool. However, I would stick to these filtres, in order of pricing (quality should be more or less equal) AC/Delco filtres Mann filtres Saab filtres. I use AC/Delco for the most part, a quality product. Generally, the AC/Delco filtres "Made in England" are the same as the OEM Saab filtres. As well, Mann filtres are made in the same plant. Some AC/Delcos now are coming from the USA, but I wouldn't worry about them.
