I think I saw 1 9-5 that had PCV #6 installed out of dozens of pre-2004 cars I looked at. For such a cheap repair that can have such a profound and costly long term affect, imho, SAAB techs should probably be advising every owner that comes in without one that they should get it done. For what ever reason, around here, that either is not happening or the owners are not listening/caring, and/or I wasn't looking at the right cars! So I bought a 2004 + settled for a sedan because I couldn't find a good wagon...
(seriously: at one point, I looked at a 2003 wagon that was nice but had separately had the engine and turbo replaced by the dealer under warranty due to sludge... still did not have PCV #6!!)
