After getting a P0495 code again (evap canister large leak) I changed the canister vent solenoid. Evidently cleaning out the old valve was not effective. New valve was about $20 from Saturn parts (not available on aftermarket). Took about an hour to install including getting the rear end up on jack...

Thanks for the help on my other post. I ended up having the transmission in stalled by an ASE certified mechanic. The transmission has 7000 miles on it, the clutch has 5000. The car has 90000. Now it is very very difficult to get into 3rd and 4th most of the time, sometimes into 1st or 2nd. ...

Can anyone help me with what might be the cause of this problem. My service light comes on with a wrench next to it!

I need a center console lid-- just the plastic lid that the top of the lid is screwed onto, for my 2000 L series wagon. Black color would be perfect. Part number is stamped on the underside: L/F 21060617. If you have one for sale, please reply to: remove the NOSPAM, of...

Is the power steering adjustable at all on this model. I've checked the tire pressure and may replace the junk Firestone tires but I was wondering if it might be possible to increase low speed assist. Car handles like a truck at low and moderate speeds.

My fog lights on my SL2 are acting very strange. For the most part, they are off and cannot be turned on with the switch with either the parking lights or the lowbeams on. However, sometimes when I startup my car they will be on, and I can't turn them off!! Not sure if this might just be a wiring...

My crank-but-no-start problem turned out to be the PCM. I had the car at a local repair shop that diagnosed it. Several phone calls to Saturn in Tenn. and I discovered that there is a Federal mandated warranty for all emissions components for 8 years/80,000 miles. My local Saturn dealer picked...

Whats a good source for structural body repair parts ?

problem: when slowing down, push the clutch in, oil pressure gauge shoots to high, rpms drop to zero and car dies. sometimes the car will start right back up, other times we have to let it sit for a few minutes. either way, when it starts it will run fine for about 10 minutes, then when we slow...

I went to check the fluid level according to manual instructions. Oops! No dipstick...the tranny is sealed! I actually went to the dealer to find it. They couldn't believe the manual was wrong. This, along with the incorrect location of the cabin air filter (not behind glove box).

My 97 SW2 is becoming increasingly hard to start after its sat for about 30 minutes. I suspect it would be the temperature sensor but is there anything else I should be looking at? Mitch

How do you check for bad ground? I need to know where to check and what to clean and tighten...basically, I need to know everything. Thanks for any help!

On Monday we had a little hurricane here in Florida and some of the roadways ended up flooded. We ended up driving through about 2 feet of water at about 35 mph. You couldn't see it until you were upon it. About halfway through the 30 ft puddle, the car started knocking and was hard...

Had some tranny work done and now the power mirrors dont work. Shop said they didnt do it and the control module is bad. Took it apart...what should I be seeing? The L/R rocker has a metal post that comes down to 4 posts on the board. Shouldnt the posts have metal running between them for the L/R...
