So you change your oil only once every 10k? To be honest, i'm surprised that you've done over 200k with only 10k oil changes!
I am probably one of the most fanatical people I know when it comes to oil changes - once every 5k is a much better bet. By the time 5k comes up, the oil is usually just starting to go black and dirty. By keeping the oil changed as often as possible and as clean as possible changes every 5k are the only way to go. This is even more important when we are dealing with sophisticated engineering (twin cams, multi valves etc) such as the Saab 2.0l/2.3l engines.
Cheers,
Tony
