Anyone know of any DIY sites for this or any posts made from this?

There are still 4 and 5 speed automatic 9-5's(which I'm sure you know JK), so that doesn't really help too much ;)

But regardless, the process is the same. Just Dexron III for the 4spd or 3309 for the 5spd. You can get the 3309 from Amsoil for a good deal cheaper than Saab. It meets the JWS 3309 spec, and is about half price when you buy the 1 Gallon jug of it.

4 speed 9-5 auto tranny is very easy to drain & flush.
If oyu can change engine oil you can do tranny oil.
the problem is the tranny is more like a sponge than a bucket.
To get all old oil out of it you need ot drain & flush 3 times ( min 1/2 driving between drains) this would take 3 X 4L drains to change all the oil.
I have been using B&M synethic lightweight shock proof oil without any problems for 3 years in my 99 4 speed auto.
