I just went through a similar problem with A/C compressor...
a 2001 with 62,000 miles, my A/C worked fine, but the clutch bearings started to fail. Made a bad noise at idle. Luckily I brought it in before any smoke.
New compressor from Saab (not many rebuilts available yet, so you have to go to Saab for new and get hosed), new dryer, labor, and full oil and recharge : $1000 at an independent.
From what I read on this site, it seems that DIC's, idler pulleys, and A/C compressors are the weak points on these Saab 9-3's.
Pain in the a$$, but I think all other aspects (both driving and mechanical) outweigh it.
Good luck with your A/C!
