The shop is probably referring to the 9000 ZF transmission (1998 last year) as being German and needing a filter change.
I'm not sure what he can mean about the GM transmission since they have been Japanese Aisin Warner transmissions from about mid 1990.
The 6 speed auto in the 06 Aero use the Saab/GM fluid 93165147 which is also called AW-1. I have not been able to find it anywhere else except from the dealer.
It is kind of a pain to change the fluid and check the level. The battery and battery shelf needs to be removed to get to the fill plug so the price range is not out of line all depending on the shops hourly rate.
It would be about $240.00 if I did it.
