1) The 9-5 runs its oil very hot - you need a ACEA A3/B3 oil, which that Dexos is not (There is a "Dexos 2" spec for oil, which is suitable for light duty diesels as well. I have only ever seen it at a Saab Owners' Convention in the parts tent. I suppose it's common in Europe. Stick with the Mobil 1 0W40, or one of the 5W40 oils on the shelf. Search the Board for recommendations. Also be certain the PCV is updated and check for existing sludge.
