at the advice of a friend and saab master tech, i yanked the right side drive axle and felt the inside of the drive cup on the end of the intermediate shaft for wear, and it was there. changed the intermediate shaft and the vibration was significantly better, but still not gone. Checked the left side drive cup and it too had wear inside it (and it was $380!!!). Replaced, no more vibes.
It's a peculiar kind of vibration too, isn't it? It shakes the whole car as opposed to a warped rotor or unbalanced tire that makes the steering wheel shimmy.
