Sounds like the tranny is slipping. The sooner you fix it, the better it is, since it does not accumulate additional damage. Flushing the ATF in the tranny involves connecting the tranny oil cooler lines to a special machine and circulating new ATF into the tranny while the old ATF is being collected by the flushing machine. This is done with the engine running and it collects nearly all ATF, including the ATF in the torque converter.
However, not many places will do it on a Saab...
You can drive the car in 3rd, and at 50 mph, it should be OK, but like I mentioned above... the more you wait, the more damage you incur...
If you're lucky, changing the fluid might solve the problem, and yes, change it a few times to get most of the old stuff out; also look for metal shavings on the magnet of the drain plug.
Good luck,
Bogdan
