I heard they changed the block a little bit and the PCV system in the '04's is actually not the same as PCV #6. I have not seen ONE 2004+ 9-5 with sludge. Someone on another Saab forum said he saw a 2004 at his independent mechanic's with sludge, but that's the ONLY one I've ever heard of and it's still hearsay. The earlier 9-5's developed sludge within 3 or 4 years. The oldest 2004's are now five years old. A few people have pulled the valve covers off their '04+ 9-5's and there is not an ounce of varnish or anything. It all looked new. I should pull mine to see what it looks like... someday. For now the fact I haven't heard of more than one with sludge has me convinced I'm safe.
