255 Specifications
Engine oil To meet demands in Saab's extended service intervals all eng-
ines are filled with specially designed synthetic factory fill oils.
Long service intervals, fuel economy and environmental issues
are the base for our choice of oil. By using oils approved by Saab
you minimise the tendencies for oil sludge build, by that protec-
ting the engine from harmful, wear increasing, deposits.Approved oils:
All gasoline engines - Fully Synthetic Engine Oil fulfilling
GM-LL-A-025 requirements.Oil used at, or in-between, service must be approved according
to the engine specified classification to render possible the
usage of Saab Automobile AB specified service intervals.Servicing/Oil changes:To be able to use recommended service intervals the need to
use only approved engine oils is vital.
Use only engine oils
approved for your engine.
Service should be done according
to the recommended service intervals to optimize your engine's
function through out its entire life. Saab Automobile AB will not
take responsibility for any damage that might occur due to neg-
lecting to meet above mentioned requirements.
At your Saab dealers you can find Saab Genuine or Mobil eng-
ine oils. Among those there are oils specially designed to meet
your engines specific needs. We recommend that you, with the
help of our skilled service personnel, choose your oil from that
sortiment.
Other oil companies also have engine oils approved according
to GM specifications. Oils meeting these standards may be
identified as synthetic. However, not all synthetic oils will meet
your engines requirements. You should only use oil that meets
your engines specific requirements (GM-LL-A-025).
Recommended oil viscositiesViscosity is a measurement of the oils thickness. The thickness
influences, among other things, the fuel economy. For best func-
tion Saab recommends:For gasoline engines:SAE 0W-30
SAE 5W-30
or
SAE 0W-40 engine oilExtra engine oil additivesDon't add anything to your oil. The recommended oils are all you
will need for good engine performance and protection.

By cold tires is meant tires that are the same temperature as the surrounding
air temperature.
The values for tire pressure in the table above are for tires at 68°F (20°C).
The tire pressure will increase as the tires become warm (e.g. during motor-
way driving), and decrease as they cool.
When the temperature of the tires increase or decrease by 10 degrees the
tire pressure will correspondingly increase or decrease by 10 kPa/2 psi
(0.1 bar).
