Just replaced a front wheel bearing on my 1999 9-5. I didn't think it could have gone bad only being replaced last year, but a botched job. Drive slowly with windows down and swing steering from side to side to load and unload bearings and notice any noise difference. Look on YouTube for Saab specific examples. One guy has short 30 second video that was exactly my symptoms. Some other mechanic on YouTube swears that he relies on getting the car up in the air and turning the tire/wheel by hand and if he feels any vibration with his other hand on the coil spring then he knows it is a bearing problem. I never could tell by the old "shake the wheel method".
Best of Luck!
