By default I use fully synthetic oil in the 99 and up Saab's using the B205/235 engines.
If the engine is a big consumer of oil, I might use regular oil since it is no use pouring expensive synthetic oil in an engine that burns it up and spit it out right away.
The PCV update is a good thing to do as early as possible since it seems to take care of the crank case ventilation problems that this engine has had from the beginning.
Your mechanic might be hesitant if he has followed all the other updates coming from Saab that didn't work that good.
