This all sounds true to me. Basically if you use something better than just 10w-30 oil and change it every 20k miles or more(how easy is it!!) and dont crunch the gears. The trans should last as long as the engine. Saab should have recommended more frequent changes. Most manufacturers do claim that gear oil is good for the life of the car and maybe Saab did not want to point out to a new customer that their car needed more maintinence??
Bottom line change the oil every other time you change engine oil and there should be no problems. I have also heard that you need to make sure that the clutch pedel bushings are good as when they wear they do not let the clutch depress all the way and this is part of the cause of the crunch into reverse.
