recommends can and most often are different. SAAB has free SCHEDULED service on '00 and '01 SE 9-3, which means free 10K, 20K, 30K services because this is the schedule for NORMAL driving conditions. This does not include anything in between these services. IE, if you decide to change you oil every 5K miles (A good idea I might add), you have to pay for every other oil change. The dealer wants you to come in more often, because they make money on service, independant of SAAB. The guy below who got charged for an air filter at 7K miles really got screwed. Read in your manual what should be done when, unless you live in really really adverse conditions, the manual should cover all driving conditions.
