Will an 06 plate 9-3 aero 2.0T run okay on this new fuel?

Anyone know if they do or if additives are required?

As I understand it most cars manufactured after 2011 are not effected, so what about Saab?

Thanks

The .gov site says all Saabs since mid-80s are fine, and I've read elsewhere that all Saabs built since 1979 are fine on E10 fuel. Sweden has a long history of biofuels, and some Saabs were built to run on E85.

Yes it will be fine. I've got the same engine but Stage 3 and unless I'm "off out for a drive" E10 is fine for normal driving/commuting.

My 08 9-3 Aero auto seems to have dropped in MPG recently but mainly on urban driving. Did a long run recently and got 40MPG but barely get above 21 on urban. Figured it was down to E10 but tried Momentum recently and same result. Strange
