Just bought a new 9-5 wagon w/the good lady wife and told her that she absolutely had to put premium in it. I was basing this on my experiences w/my Golf GTI. As far as I know - even with the best knock sensor in the world, low octane fuel may cause detonation. Detonation is one of the prime enemy of small turbos and should be avoided at all costs. If you add high heat (and here in Az we know all about that) you have a real witches brew.
Do the Saab's have a more efficient knock sensor than the gti 1.8t?
