Yeah, I suppose so.
Actually, I haven't done the 'best & final' fix yet. After doing my best to inspect the turbo, I pretty much convinced myself that it's just oil from the crankcase line. While it's sorta annoying getting the smoke (occasionally), it doesn't seem to be damaging anything.
History:
Dealer did the first mod under warranty, & they inspected the turbo. Then Saab recommended 'un-doing' it which I did myself (after warranty was over). At that point it smoked less often. Someone here also noticed that the smoke happens even less often if you don't keep the oil level way up at the top of the range.
How often & how badly does yours smoke? It's possible yours has leaky turbo bearings along with an oily vent line.
