I have a '02 9-5 Aero SW with the ESP option.
Since day one, when decelerating and going into tight corners, especially round-a-bouts I get a shudder coming from one of the rear wheels - the right hand side on right hand corners and the left on left hand ones - not always, but enough to worry me. :-?
The sound is like that of an overwound clock system coming unsprung and the whole car shudders for about a tenth of a second - everyone on board can feel it. :o
The dealer has looked at it, as have 2 technicians from the the factory in Sweden and all they do is scratch their heads.
Am I alone with this experience? Any suggestions ? I mention the ESP but the Swedes ruled this out immediately ! :roll:

You're not alone. While working on an 02' ARC wagon. I noticed a humming and slight vibration in the pedals while going over a speed bump or taking a corner quickly. I think Saab USA is looking into the matter becuase our local warranty representative noticed the problem on another vehicle. AND yes, I believe it involves the ESP.

Thanks Clover - I thought I'd never get any feed-back on this matter.
