The recommendation for your car was 90,000 miles but SAAB lowered that to 60,000 miles on 2006 and newer. THe procedure in WIS calls for flushing the transmission which requires removing the oil cooler hoses from the transmission. I would just recommend changing the oil 2 times. Also the oil level should be checked with the transmission hot. WIS says it should be above 80 deg C. After draining, I add 3 3/4 quart and then drive for awile (I use tech2 to monitor trans temp.) It usually takes about 5 miles of driving to warm the trans temp up to 80 deg C. THen recheck the level.
Since you don't drive much, it would probably be a good idea to change every 45,000 miles instead of the recommended 90,000 miles
