Have you had the oil changed to run suggested viscosity numbers for the temperature that it is being exposed to?
Thick oil will drag the engine down to a hard turn over during start and slow chugging warmup on a 0°F day, better get prepped for it.
Your voltage is what mine reads almost year around. But, with my Fluke meter on the battery I get a little stronger reading which is due to not a perfect onboard voltmeter in the car. It is a gauge for you to judge how it does. If you see a big drop during a start which is more than usual then it is doing it's job of letting you know something has changed. The highest charging level which is displayed is about .3 to .5 lower than measured at the battery posts. Good Saabing.
