Saab 9-5 model 4-cylinder oil filter choices.... ![]() Posted by MI-Roger [Email] ![]() ![]() |
I found this on a PT Cruiser web board. Chrysler's PT Cruiser uses the same filter as our Saab 4-cylinders, their Turbo engine version uses a longer filter that fits nicely on our Saabs. I have been using the A/C PFL400A filters for over a year now. The original list contained Fram filter numbers too, as well as a few other brands I wouldn't recommend, - I deleted all these.
"Below is a listing by manufacturer. The 2nd filter number listed (and/or followed by **) will be the longer and larger capacity filter, usually used in the GT or Turbo PT's but can be used in the regular PT's. As always, double check the part numbers if you have access to an oil filter catalog. Part number changes happen quite frequently or get outdated."

The A/C PFL400A is nearly twice as long as the PF53 filter.
