I use dino, just because I change the oil yearly becaue I want the trany to last, and I'm cheap. Redline is about$10/quart.
Saab has no recommended oil change interval for the tranny, but tranny's are very hard on engine oil. If you search, you will find many posts of peoploe changing their tranny oil and having it come out as thin as water. This is because gears produce huge shear forces and shear eats up oil viscosity, making it thin.
I had serious gear whine in my tranyy, when I changed the clutch I got all the old oil out and put in Havoline 10-40, the gear whine was completely gone.
