Subject: Re: synthetic transmission oil


Bernice, Since there have been some engineering changes on the newer 9000S, 96 - 98, and the newer 9-5S would say this includes the synthetic oil from Saab. The 91 9000 was not designed to use synthetic oil from anybody, including Saab. Unless Saab comes out with a written tech order saying it is okay to use their synthetic, I would leave it alone. I have used Castrol GTX in all three of my 5 spds. I also use 4 ozs. of Militec-1. The nay sayers are reaching for their keyboards, but I have been using Militec-1 for over 5 years. In my 83 900T and 87 900S it stopped the metal deposit sludge build up on the drain plug altogether. I changed the trans oil on those cars every 20,000 to 25,000 miles. I call that cheap insurance. The 5 spd on my 83 900T had over 251,000 miles, when the car was hit by a truck. I never had a problem with that 5 spd.
