My wife's car is approaching 100k miles and I want to replace the transmission fluid.
What does Saab recommend for the Automatics?

I'm pretty sure it's a 4 speed.

I saw that, but I also saw there was a fluid for 79-01 and another for 02-present

I think it said something like 'DexronIII compatible NON-synth'

I might just have the Valvoline Instant Oil Change place do it.

Does anyone know the fluid capacity or installation service? is it a 100% drain system or is it a rinse/wash/fill where you blow like 10qts just flushing the thing?

I don't know about the capacities . But I do know this, you may not want to take it to a Valvoline place to get it done. I almost never hear any good stories from places like that.

The manual that came with the car should have all that info.
