I can't believe this still happens to Saabs. I had this happen in my 2000 9-3 which from what I saw on the board was very common. Mine would get some terrible suspension knocking for the first 15 minutes or so in the winter when going over bumps. I figured they would have fixed this by now. Anyway, on first attempt to have dealer fix, they lowered the subframe and greased the bushings and I believe they also put on some teflon tape or something like that. this worked for the rest of the winter, but then cam back the next year. That was done under warranty. After that, I just let it go and felt embarassed when going over bumps the next winters after.
I have an 06 95 SC now, but I live in Arizona, instead of Boston, so I have no idea if this car will rattle too in the cold.
Good luck,
Ryan
