The service writer at my dealer fed me that line also..."we can't do it - it's required by law!"
I explained that the _only_ reason the light is there is so that Saab's CAFE (Combined Average Fuel Economy - I think) is as high as possible. I believe there are no US laws that prohibit disabling that light once the car is delivered to the customer.
Once he realized that he could in fact get to the option with the Tech II, he went ahead and disabled the light without further comment, other than that he was going to do the same for his own 9-3 ASAP!
