First take the car to your local Saab dealer for an appraisal. If the work required is not covered by a recall then get a written estimate if possible.
You can then approach the dealer you bought from, and ask them to sort it out. Be nice, because you may not have any legal recourse. I know in my state (IL) used cars are sold either 'as is, no warranty implied/expressed' or with a warranty (usually of 30 days or some other paltry amount). Most dealers sell 'as is' and will offer you an expensive mechanical breakdown insurance if you want a warranty - they dont stand behind the car themselves. As is means as is, including preexisting defects so you are basically appealing to the dealers sense of decency (ho ho), or rather their desire to retain their reputation. You may end up coming to a 50/50 setlement, which is not so bad, as your 9-5 will then have a new turbo and be good for another 120k.
