Half Turbo Pressure - Help Please

I just went on a long road trip this weekend (600 miles), and my car was running great until the "time for service light" came on after a start-up half way through.
The car has done around 56k miles. I did not have the dealer 55k service.
I pressed and held the "clear" button on SID for about 30 secs whilst driving and the warning message went away on the next start-up.
Here's the problem then - I now only have half boost. The gauge will only reach half amber on the boost gauge under full acceleration in all gears.
Is this problem connected to the "need for a service" i.e. does the TechII reset something in the ECU to restore full boost. or is this just a coincidence and there is some other fault ? possibly with the APC system ?
I briefly checked hoses etc and all seemed to be as it was before the fault.
Please respond if you can offer any assistance or advice.
I am reluctant to take my SAAB to the local main dealer as they have a bad reputation for ripping you off. However i may have no choice ??
Thanks in advance
