Well , after talking with wife again, it seems she's not sure if the oil light is what "flashed" once while she was driving the car over a month ago. She said something flashed, and then off, and it was too fast for her to see what. I know that I drove the car about 20 miles over to the shop , and observed no trouble.
Headaches ... but other than overfilling I can't imagine what these "people" may have done to the car while it was away. The big stress is that someone at the dealer sent me into a panic over the phone today BEFORE I got the car back, telling me that they observed a "massive" oil leak. The story was later changed to maybe a minor oil leak (oil under the car). This car has had virtually no major oil leaks since the engine rebuild, and surprisingly when the car returned today, I still see no leaks even after it sat for several hours in my driveway.
The car was unfortunately towed twice with all the fighting with insurance about the stick, and later this diagnostic done over at the saab dealership. Maybe it's all coincidental, and what she saw was the oil light flash, and the problem didn't recur until now, but that just seems rather strange considering the serious nature of the oil light. Can a screen/sludge clog up start up very intermittently like this?
