I don't know what my manual says on this issue, and I can't look because my wife has the car at work, but I've always done my own "interval" O&F changes (5, 15, 25K, etc.) because I live 80 miles from the dealer. They told me when we leased the car that I needed to have it iin there every 10K, and they provided all the service to the specified 36K miles. Then, of course, they come up with all the big money / questionable necessity things right after that, like flushing the coolant and brake fluid. When asked why they wanted to change that orange coolant, when every brand I've seen says 5/50, they really didn't have a good answer, except that SAAB had printed it on the maintenance schedule. We're three weeks away from turning the car in at the end of a 3-year lease, and it'll have around 53K on it then, and that coolant is still nice and clear, looks like Orange Crush.
