Had something similar on my 2001 SE, at first now and then. But after a few months, it started making noise at idle all the time.
Eventually took it in, turned out to be the A/C compressor bearings going out, at about 60,000 miles.
A/C worked fine too! But had to replace the whole thing. And there weren't rebuilts available yet, so it had to be bought brand new from Saab. So unless you can find someone able to replace the bearings, it was an expensive fix just for some lousy bearings.
good luck!
