Frequently Asked Questions - 9-5 SAAB
Which engine oil to use for the Saab 9-5?
Use engine oil grades GM-LL-A-025 for petrol engines and GM-LL-B-025 for diesel engines. Recommended viscosities are 0W-30, 0W-40, 5W-30 or 5W-40.
When to perform an engine oil change?
Engine oil change must be carried out at the latest every 30,000 km or 1 year, according to the instrument panel display. For E85 vehicles, the interval is reduced to 15,000 km or 1 year.
Can I use E85 fuel in my Saab 9-5?
Yes, if the vehicle is factory-set for ethanol (E85) operation. In that case, engine oil change and oil filter replacement must be performed every 15,000 km or once a year.
How to check the engine oil level?
Check the level with the engine at operating temperature, stopped for at least 5 minutes. The dipstick must indicate a level between MIN and MAX, ideally between 1/2 and 3/4.
Which brake fluid to use?
Use the brake fluid specified by Saab, type DOT 4+. Never mix with mineral oils. Replacement is recommended every 4 years (or 2 years if the tester is not available).
When to replace the spark plugs?
On the Saab 9-5, spark plugs must be replaced every 4 years or 60,000 km, or more frequently for engines running on E85.
How to maintain the air conditioning?
It is recommended to have the air conditioning checked during each service, especially if the vehicle is driven a lot or in hot climates. The check includes a functional and pressure test, and a leak check.
What is the corrosion warranty?
The Saab 9-5 benefits from a 6-year perforation corrosion warranty. Annual anti-rust protection inspections are mandatory to maintain this warranty.
Where to find a Saab service partner?
You can contact any authorised Saab Service Partner, in Europe or elsewhere. The service book must be presented for warranty work.
What to do if the service message appears?
As soon as the message 'SERVICE RECOMMENDED' is displayed, you must have the service carried out as soon as possible at a Saab Partner. The technician will reset the indicator after the operations.
