Newbie 9-5 V6 Owner Questions

Hi everyone,
I just purchased a 2001 9-5 V6 4-door. What a great car!!!! My car is pretty much pristine inside and out, but this is my first SAAB and so I have a few questions.
I plan to do almost all maintenance myself. I have not found a source for good workshop manuals for it, only the WIS subscription offered by SAAB themselves. Can anyone point me in the direction of any manuals on either CD or paper.
My car has 62K miles and is out of warranty. I have already changed all the filters and fluids except the transmission. Is there a drainplug and filter for this or do you need to use an extractor through the filler tube? Having a manual would answer this.
I doubt the timing belt/tensioner was replaced at 60K (no record of it from SAAB anyway). Is there a description of the procedure anywhere. Again, this might be answered by the manual.
Thanks in advance,
Eric Irvine
