Which I kind of was ignoring b/c it came on so gradually, I associated it with age (the cars age as well ;-)). Then there was an odd thumping/knocking in the rear, which in past Saabs was loose suspension bolts. I asked my Florida tech (the SAAAB Store) to check the rear noise (which turned out to be a sheared off fill tube clamp - cable ties fixed that) and was informed of a worn-out-and-rattling sway bar link (the one with tiny little ball joints on each end). Amazing difference - like hitting yourself with a hammer - it feels so good when you stop.
Check the sway bar links. BTW, Saturn "L" series uses the same part, I was told.
