From what I recall, the Euro formula is what Amsoil recommends for the Saab 9-5 in cooler climates. I use Mobil 1 0W40 since "no one ever regrets" using that oil. I recently noticed that they took the GM-LL-A025 spec off the containers but it's still the Euro Blend. I think GM took that old spec off the market in favour of DEXOS but the Mobil 1 doesn't mention Dexos to my knowledge. Amsoil is a bit pricy so my son uses Amsoil (Severe Gear) in his Jeep Rubicon diffs. I understand it's a great gear oil and worth the money due to the protection & long OCI on those plugs under light duty conditions. Currently in the pipeline are a whole host of new energy conserving oils but only for new vehicles. They would grenade the old Triumph engines in the 9-5's.
