Hi, we currently have 6 Saab's in the family. I do most of my own repairs. But I have only recently learned of the sludge issue. I have always used full Synthetic in all of our current and former SAAB's since 1994.
99 S 100K & 99 SE Conv 70K with the 2.O L. The mint condition Conv only had 52K in 8/06 when purchased with no service records. It is now driven at least 400 miles per week. Is sludge still a concern?
I was under the impression it was only the 2.0L and not the 2.3 Our other cars 03 9-5 Aero 85K, 01 Viggen 165K and two 97 9000 Aero's 165K and 180K have the B234 R & B235R and are high mileage with documented regular oil changes. So I'm assuming in no danger of sludge. But I eould apprciate input- esp on 9-5 Aero.
