Put in some BCPR6ES11's gapped to .035, not .039, change every year.
Clean the injectors with Techron Concentrate, use a 20 ounce bottle & every 8K.
If you are going to keep the vehicle, the DI will die at some point.
Then you need to get towed and you are in for dealer labor and prices.
So as long as you will need a new DI someday, get one now and keep it as a spare, or install and keep the old one in the back as the spare. Easy to change it over. Use loctite blue on the 4 DI torx screws!

The gear type clamps on the coolant system aways get loose as the rubber yield under the clamps. Tighten them all. Use a screwdriver and 7mm socket as required. There are many. Don't forget the ones at the tank. Do the two clamps on the hose from the PS tank to the PS pump too. Remove the throttle cover and find more clamps. Clamps at the rad too.

You are overdue for a coolant drain and flush. You can get a gallon of Saab Coolant at US dealers for around $8US. You will need one gallon only. Search drs<underscore>install and find my cooling system posts.

Cabin air filter?
Engine air filter?

Use Mobil 1 0W40 and Purolator PureOne filters ?PL10241?

Remove the brake fluid from the reservoir every year and replace. Flush the brake system every few years.

Inspect your idler pullies, its probably time to replace the upper one, and do the short belt modification as well to save around 70-80 $$. The upper ones fail all of the time if ignored, the you get towed to the dealer etc.
