The most likely issue is the heater box--my 1999 Viggen has the same problem. The boxes in the 1999-2000 model 9-3's would bind, and initially the motors in the cars with ACC could move them, but not in the cars with manual climate control. So, most of the ones with the MCC got replaced early on, but not those with the ACC.
The heater box is not an easy fix because it's so deep in the dash. Mine will eventually get back to the dash position, but it takes some time. I have made it a habit to select the dash vents right after getting in the car so that they stay there.
Something to check is if it will move to the defrost position--mine will move freely between floor and defrost, but not dash. A bit annoying, but I've gotten used to it.
