The power steering fluid leaked from the car and I replaced it the next day, it seems the bolt on top of the chamber had just turned loose a bit. Now after refilling and tightening the bolt there is air in the line and makes a loud noise when turning the wheels. How can I remove the air?

Just turn steering wheel lock to lock & hold at each turn for a few seconds , do this 5 times lock to lock, did u use saab approved power steering fluid note this is very important to the system function.
