There were definitely problems in some of the 9-3 6 speed gearboxes. My '03 9-3 Arc 6 speed has had the light crunch 1st to 2nd, 3rd back down to 2nd, and back into first while rolling to a stop sign or light (clutch in of course). If I drive with some finesse it does not crunch, so I haven't bothered to have the dealer monkey around with it. While I only have 8000 miles on the car it also seems to have gotten better regardless of my driving style. Surprisingly, under heavy acceleration it is smooth with no crunching at all. Also, you can't beat that 6th gear overdrive while cruising on the highway.
