we were running 10w40 oil (moble), but he switched it to 20w50 (moble)... which seems like a good idea because its warmer here and it never gets below 40 degrees even in the winter.
the year is a 1999 95se wagon.
where is the oil pressure relief valve?? is that something i can get at and fix? i used to work on my cars in the past, but this saab looks a bit intimidating to me.
what brand of oil should i be using?
barry (my mechanic) says to change the oil in the 9.5 evey 5000 kilometers or 3000 miles... seems a bit excessive to me. but he says there isn't really an acceptable oil, in his opinion, made for australian conditions; so that's why he recommends such frequent changes.
this car had overheated due to a broken hose and had the head remachined and all the work associated with that job about seven months ago.
