Which engine has better reliability? 1.9 SOHC or 1.9 DOHC? by
wiguy79
Hi everyone,
I recently was looking at a Saturn SC2 and the dealer told me that in
his opinion the 1.9 DOHC is more reliable. Is that true? I know in the
history of GM, most of their DOHC engines are crap so I was wondering if
he was just telling me that to get me to buy the car. For...

Could it all be related? by
shadenkat
I have a 2000 Saturn L series, and lately it seems like it is having one
problem after another. Perhaps they are all related, but I am at a loss.
First, the tail light went out. I replaced the entire kit, only to have
the break portion go out again within six months.
The Cd player works,...

Question about different types of engines by
Green Shampoo
Hello all! I brought my Saturn to Germany with me and I'm about at 65,000
miles so I figured its time to change my plugs and wires. Problem is, no
auto stores here have parts for Saturns.
I decided to go to Advance Autoparts website and see what they are charging.
Well, I had always thought that...

1993 SC2 temp gauge 1/4 to 3/4 and back by
tweek2
I have heard a lot of people have the same problem as me. It seems there is
not enough air getting to the raditor at first. Then I realized that the
temp gauge goes up to 3/4 at regular intervals then the fan kicks on and
drops it to 1/4 in a matter of minutes.
The process then repeats. I think...

2001 L100 Tail Light by
jtfogarty
My rear tail light just quit and the dealer told me I need to replace the
whole assembly. Priced at $111, I told him forget it. He did mention that
there's a circuit board on each tail light, and mine has failed. If so,
could someone tell me if it's worth trying to fix. I can get a used assembly

Pretty happy with the car, the only problem is that ocassionally I
have trouble starting it when the engine is cold.
All I get is a click. That happens 4-5 times, and then it finally
starts.
It doesn't happen all the time. I took it to the...

Code P1133 on 2000 Saturn SL by
Edward Crismond
Hi
I have a 2000 Saturn SL with a high idle problem and a constantly lit
'check engine light'. It only does the high idle intermitantly, when the
engine is warmed up. Sitting at a stop light, while in neutral, the RPM
may shoot up to 2000+. It will idle correctly, at around 800 RPM or so,
after...
