I have the 2000 9-3 5-door hatchback and have owned it since it was new. I think in 2000-2002, Saab oil (used by the dealers) was semi-synth. But in more recent years they have mostly switched over to fully synthetic as that is what is recommended for the newer models. If a certified Saab service center was changing the oil every 3000 miles, they likely started with the semi-synth and then somewhere along the way switched over to full synth. If you have service records, it should say.
