I have a 9-3 2001, and did have a rather loud noise comming off the engine when idel. I also had a situation where a puff of black smoke coming out of exhust when starting the car int he morning . The cure was changing of Turbo assembly (all components) apperantly there is a seal that prevents the oil leaks into engine and failure of that causes those two incidents to occour . SAAB at idel should PURRRR :) Anything but that is not acceptable .
