sounds like the tranny has blown beans(bands)...ther repair is not cheap, i priced out one recently for a 93 9K and there were two that might go into it; one was 2200.00 the other was even more. then you've got labor... it is so cost prohibitive that there are lots of good saabs rotting away with bad trannys... you have 3 options: new used or rebuilt.
a used one is the least attractive option, since after all the labor costs its not really cost effective...try to find a saab mechanic that will cut you a labor deal or one that will rebuild it at a reasonable price or find a reputable shop that rebuilds them. you can go to your local SAAB shop and try to talk about side work to one of the mechanics, be discrete as the shops are sometimes less than thrilled about soliciting there mechanics. Also Ask on the BB for a good rebuild shop. You are still talking bucks...sorry to bear bad news.....hopefully there is another overlooked simple fix.....but it does not sound good..
