When to change engine oil.
Your vehicle has a display (SID) where time for service will be
shown. Based not only on mileage but also on driving condi-
tions the mileage at which a service will be indicated can vary
considerably.
Under normal circumstances the service indication will come on
at or around 15 000 miles or 2 years.
For this service system to work it is of outmost importance that
the right engine oil is used.
When the message for service is displayed you need to have
the required service done as soon as possible.
After the service your service personnel will reset the service in-
dicator. It is important to reset the service indicator in order to
optimize the time to the next service.

For optimum performance Saab recom-
mends: _______________________ 2.0t 175 hp – AON 90.
2.0T 210 hp – AON 90.
2.8 V6 230 hp and
250 hp — AON 90.
Gasoline with a lower octane rating can be used, although not
lower than AON 87. However, engine performance will fall slightly
and heavy loading and laboring should be avoided. For optimum
performance, use the recommended grade of fuel.
