It was only then that I had any issue with MV oil, since it was all over the road and not in my oil pan. I have been using MV oil in my 21 Y.O. 900T without sludge build-up or other usage issues for 6 years now (since I bought it). I have the complete Saab maintenance history on the car since it's purchase by the original owner in 1986. Since Saab dealers uses MV oils when they do an oil change, I guess that 21 years of MV oil usage without a problem sorta blows your theory out the window- If it were true the car should have been in a scrap yard somewhere years ago. I have also souped this car up and still have no problems using MV oils. Jeremy
