The Blue Turbo Smoke

Has anyone had recent issues with there 9-5 turbocharger? I have being seeing the blue smoke more frequently at start up. From what I have been reading, the turbo's tend to wear out prematurely on earlier models. I have my 2001 9-5 regularly serviced at SAAB and I am disapointed at this developemnt. If when I take it in and SAAB comes clean about this being a known problem (premature turbo wear) then all will be forgiven. I have an apponimntment on Tuesday at a SAAB dealership (where I bought the car) in Boston. I will keep the BB updated.
By the way has anyone heard of SAAB acknowledging that there is a problem with premature turobo wear?
