Mobil 1 0W-40 in an 05 Saab 9-5--OCI?

How long would you run this oil? I was thinking 7K miles, but see that others think that 5K is safer in these engines.

7-8k easily. No more than 10k, IMO. How big is the sump? If more than 5.5 liters - 10k easily.

Is it a V6 or Turbocharged 4?

Is that the V6;

Here is a UOA for the I4; 15K; YMMV depending on driving habits.

My low inertia turbo 2004 9-3 does two years 14-15k just fine, verified by UOA.

V6 may be different.

I have a 2.3 4 cyl. Looks like 7k miles it is. Sump is small, 4.5 quarts.
