The trick must be in half-truths.

The Mobil 1 5W/10W/0W --30 is BOTH A1/B1 and A5/B5.

And if you taked the time to look at A5 vs A3--and get an outside opinion--asI did:

You 'll find --AS I KEEP POSTING HERE ON THE 9-5 BB-- the difference is imperceptible to the "daily driver".

I just laugh at this. It's now so outrageous to even think that the SAAB USA/ and SAAB SWEDEN would not offer quality product.

The VERY SAME 5W-30 SEMI SYN is put into SAABS on a DAILY BASIS in SWEDEN, JUST AS IT IS HERE. WARRANTIED WORLD-WIDE.

You want Better? Sure--we all recognize that full syn offrs more benefits. Go to the Mobil 1 SAAB oil 0W-30, or buy th readily available 5W-30 ay you local store--Wal-Mart, K-Mart, Meijer,

Hey, I don't sell cars or motor oils,---

I just enjoy my SAABS----

Tell the FULL STORY !!

Good enough for SAAB +plus one level of additional protection with Mobil 1 Full syn, then good enough for me.
