I'm not too sure about using 15w50 as I haven't heard of it being used in the Saabs (at least not enough to remember). I have been using 5w30 Royal Purple in my Viggen since I got it and on my next oil change(s) I am going with Amsoil that I also have, but it is 5w30 as well. I am taking it all back if I can and getting Amsoil 5w40. The things I have been reading about 5w30 in some Nines articles does not inspire confidence. It just doesn't hold the required oil pressure once the engine is warmed up. Additionally, I have always known diesel oil to be 15w40 not 5w40. Anyway just thought I'd let you know!
