I don't think that it will make that much of a difference as long as you stay with Mobil 1 full synthetic, but check your manual and match the weight of your oil with the temperature you expect to encounter. Saab recommends 5W30 for my 2003 Aero. I always run the recommended weight of Mobil 1 full synthetic, and do the oil and oil filter changes every 5000 miles. I live in Virginia, and previously lived in Germany and Hawaii with Saabs that eventually reached 100,000 plus miles and never had an oil related issue.
