Great post, thanks for the fitment info.
From the failures I've seen, its usually the turbocharger coolant return hose that breaks apart first either bloating at the tank nipple or cracking clean off at the metal pipe. Would suggest replacing yours as well.
Looked into the turbo return line and EPC shows two available. pn13241977 for $0.83 and pn13310060 for $6.47. Figure I will order both along on my next stock order from Saab and see what shows up. The small lines have been on backorder from Saab for over a year now. I usually just order the new replacement expansion tank kit which comes with new lines since the updated tanks seem to be failing now too.
