GM no longer uses the "LL" program, but has a new branded spec called "Dexos". Check out their web site. GM is no longer involved in Saab in any case. At AutoZone last week I noted that the Mobil 1 0W40 "European Car Formula" cans carry neither the LL designation nor the Dexos imprimatur. Nevertheless, I intend to keep using it.

I think Dexos is a lot more lax since many oil have it.
If oil no longer lists GM-LL-A-025, then you can go by Saab's old recommendation which is ACEA A3/B3 if you can't find GM LL.... Another possibility is to look for BMW Longlife 01. Mobil 1 0W40 is ACEA A3/B3 and BMW Longlife 01. Most Dexos oils are not ACEA A3/B3.
