9-3SS Front Suspension Noise

I've posted before to see if anyone else was experiencing a popping/klunking noise from the front suspension of their '03 and newer 9-3 (particularly those w/the sport suspension package or Aero's) and I wanted to give an update on my experience. I asked the dealer to look into it when the car was in for the 15K service and they were able to recreate the noise. Unfortunately, the tech indicated that it the noise was from the struts themselves and that according to a thread on the SAAB tech line, no fix was available yet (the claim was that it was a prob w/the fluid in the struts??). I figured that I'd try a call to the SAAB USA Cust supt line and while they were very prompt and pleasant in getting back to me, they seemed to have no visibility to what steps SAAB corporate was taking to resolve issues.
Has anyone else experienced the problem with the front suspension on the new 9-3's and better yet, had any luck in getting it resolved (my dealership in Maryland indicated that other customers have also complained) ? Thx
