From your manual - the primary requirement is ACEA A3/B3, which almost always means an XW-40 (or higher) synthetic blend or full synthetic. Saab's "paid for" oil changes for 2002 models includes an oil type that does not meet those specs. For preventing sludge problems, or after sludge problems have been corrected, Saab "suggests" using an oil that is GM LL 025A/B rated.
