Additional Notes
- The Saab 9-5 transfer case, referred to in the specifications as a transferbox, holds 0.66 liters of fluid across all listed XWD configurations for 2010-2011.
- A capacity of 0.66 liters is a relatively small service fill, consistent with the compact transfer units found in transversely mounted all-wheel-drive systems rather than larger body-on-frame transfer cases.
- All four configurations covered — the 2.0T, 2.0T BioPower, 2.0TiD (140 kW), and 2.8T V6 — share the identical 0.66-liter capacity, indicating a common transferbox unit across petrol, flex-fuel, diesel, and six-cylinder variants.
- The specifications apply under normal use conditions for all listed configurations, meaning the stated 0.66-liter figure is associated with standard operating circumstances rather than severe-duty service.
- The BioPower variant, which is designed to run on E85 bioethanol fuel, carries the same 0.66-liter transferbox capacity as the conventional 2.0T petrol version, reflecting that the powertrain fuel type has no bearing on the transfer case specification.
