"Q: Has this got any relation to the just released campaign for the oil trap and crank case ventilation hose?
A: No, these are updates for 9-5 MY 2004 –2005"
1) The above does not appear in the notice sent to US dealers from Saab-USA, so it has been edited.
2) I am not aware that the oil trap is a campaign in the USA, I think its a fix only if creating leaks and customer complains.
3) 2004 engines probably excluded because Saab spec's synthetic oil for these and they think that synthetic is preventative. (But the underlying problem is perhaps still there and synthetic only prevents the sludging, but moisture/acids might still be damaging.)
I still have not seen anything that suggests that this is a recall, even though some of the 'press' have started to use that word.
