Lester, I'm not sure where you live in the south. Depending upon where you live there may be an authorized Saab Service Center near you. Search for one at SaabParts.com.
As to your error message, what your shop is telling you is correct. There are a couple of issues: the filter's mesh is too fine. The fluid gets old and dirty which results in a clogging of the filter. I believe there is some sort of package that Saab Parts has created which allows a shop to fix/service the problem at a far cheaper price. You might want to contact either Schmelz Countryside in St. Paul or Saab of Memphis as I think one or the other has experience with this repair kit.
The Haldex XWD unit was thought to be a sealed unit that would never need service. Not so.
You may also find that the Buick LaCrosse uses similar or identical parts that are compatible with your car. Parts for the LaCrosse are available and are far less expensive. The XWD system on it as well as the Cadillac SRX and Saab 9-4X have had the same issues as yours.
