9-5

I have a 1999 9-5 SE Turbo V6 that is great except for one small annoying problem which on more than a few trips to the dealer has been explained as "normal" for the make. I'm wondering if anyone else has this problem, any idea what causes it, and any solution since Saab seems to want to ignore it.
Here is the problem: when I shut the engine off there is a loud noise for anywhere from 5 to 15 seconds; and, when re-started, if in a short amount of time, it makes the same loud noise.
The dealer says it is an air pump storing vacuum or releasing it and there is no "fix". I think a $38k car shouldn't make such a noise. I do notice if I switch the A/C to Econ it doesn't do it (live in Houston where it's hot most of the time).
Appreciate any comments by return.
