You don't risk anything by changing the fluid on an interval, and have lots of risk if you don't. At the same time as the oil change it is a chance to see how much "hair" is growing on the magnet, and get out any broken pieces. Clean the filter ( yours should have one ). The last three late model gearboxes we opened up had various pieces of gears, clips, and other debris. Make sure you save the fluid to review it for those additional gems when you let the fluid drain....
Order a differential cover gasket before the job so you have one on hand, and note that the Saab OE gasket is a composite material with a metallic inner surrounded by gasket material.
