Changing to synthetic will not negate your warranty . . . check the owner's manual, synthetic is one of the options recommended by Saab. Further, thickness does not depend on whether it's synthetic or semi-synthetic, but on the weight of the oil. Stay with 5w-30, and you'll be fine.
To let you know just how bad this advice is, here's what my dealer does. They only have the Saab semi-synth, but are more than happy to use the synthetic oil I provide them, and they just knock $10 off the price of the oil change (their oil is $2.50 a quart, times four).
