My 9-5 has always had Mobil 1 from first oil change at 5k miles except for the one time around 100,000 miles. The exhaust manifold bolt went about 115k miles as I recall and the reason given by my master tech is the design of the manifold in the 9-5 as compared to the 9000. The 9-5 is split into two parts at that end of the engine and allow more flex as it heats up. A weak bolt will give as there is only one holding the manifold compared to two on the 9000 at that point. It also has a K&N air filter and Remus Sport Exhaust. Really runs good!!!!
