I had a '90 900 5 spd before I bought my 1999 9-5 a month ago. I researched this very issue extensively before I would buy a Saab automatic. It turns out that the 4spd and 5spd automatics which Saab has been installing since 1999 in both the 9-3 and 9-5 are made by Aisin Warner (joint venture of Aisin Seiki in Japan and Borg-Warner here in the US). This same transmission, with some modifications to the casing, is installed in the Lexus ES300. Believe it or not, the auto trans is now the last thing you would need to be worried about. Over on the 9-3 bulletin board people have posted the opinion that the auto in the 9-3 is actually MORE reliable than the 5 spd...
