It is possible it is the converter, but this is not a common failure on a 9-5. When the convert dies it usually happens when a DI Cassette dies. If somebody somebody keeps trying to drive them, it puts too much unburnt fuel into the converter and does them in (there are actually two). The one online price I could find is $1050 at TheSaabsite.com, probably a lot more at a dealer and an hour or two of labor unless you are handy with tools, old rusty bolts and don't mind crawing under a car.
Brooks,
