scotty,
basically got the same car over here. previously made the groaning/moaning noise you are describing, and according to my service manager at the dealer, "it's the sound of the a/c compressor falling apart." i even went for a ride with a tech and he agreed with the service manager's diagnosis. i've since had 2 a/c compressors replaced, expansion valves done too, etc., but one of these compressors was apparently faulty. long story short, the car still makes the gr./mo. noise, and has continued to all along, whether the a/c compressor was broken or fixed or faulty or perfect. maybe the dealer was trying to give me the runaround or make some quick bread (though i had it all replaced [both times] free under warranty), but the first time i noticed this noise was in conjunction with a loss of air conditioning capabilities in midsummer. i've read that saab a/c comps are notoriously weak. i HOPE it's normal, 'cause mine does it all the time.
