My Saturn won't start. by
warzena
I have a 92 SL and it has been running like a champ since I got it, until a
few days ago that is. I put gas in it at night and went home, got up the
next morning to go to work and it started fine, nothing weird. I do a few
deliveries for my job and just when I was finishing up I got back into...

Buying Used Saturn by
Ken Teich
We are considering a second car for congested suburb / city driving. Hoping
to keep it around $10k. I haven't looked at the used car market for about
15yrs. Looking online I saw a couple of 01 and 02 SC2's.
They seem to be fairly sporty for us kidless 30-somethings, more
fuel-efficient than our...

2000 SL2 Fog Lights by
David Rancour
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...

Any comments on either the electronic superchargers being advertised on the
net or the resistor that tricks the car into thinking it is colder outside?

More Transmission Weirdness Need advise by
Gary Compton
I recently changed the valve body on a 93 SL1 because of extremely hash
shifting, with check engine code, and sometimes a strange squeal when
shifting. I got a factory manual, and following all the steps, replaced the
VB with one from 6th Planet. Alas, when I test drove the car, the problem
was...

1992 Saturn by
mpiquet
My 92 Saturn SL1 (5speed) battery was dead, I got a jump start and let it
run over 20 min.
When I put it into gear, it just died and would not start without another
jump. Again, once I put it into gear, it quit.
I've recently had a tune up and new alternator put on. Any suggestions?
It's now been...

odometer backlight by
Gary Klein
My '99 SL2 last night decided that the back light for the odometer was going
to burn out . The dash light for the speedo and the tach are just fine yet.
In proper light I can see the mileage and so forth so the odometer itself is
not dead.
Question is how much of an ordeal is it to get the light...

Clicking - hydraulic lifter? by
Martyn Eastwood
A couple of days ago my SC2 started to make a clicking sound that changed
with engine speed, sometimes even going away. According to the factory
manual a hydraulic lifter is the culprit. I'm lost as how to find it as the
manual does not give any clear indication. Does anyone have a...

1998 SL2 Automatic Transmission Problem by
Erick Carpenter
Got a bit of weirdness going on.
The transmission has always been a bit slow when kicking into reverse.
If the car has just been started or has been idling for a bit it'll take
a quick second to kick in, but not a delay I would call out of the
ordinary for changing gears.
After it has been...

My 97SL2 with about 92k on the odo started running really rough out of the

SES light on again :( by
Oppie
Thought I had it nailed down but the SES lamp came on again today (2001
lw300). Same code - P0455 so the vent solenoid must be sticking open again.
Will order a new one since cleaning the old one didn't seem to be a long
term solution. At least this time, I won't spend 3 hours looking for...

Burning oil/PCV valve by
Lee3333
My 1999 Saturn does not use any oil. My 1993 goes through a quart every
500 miles. I put dye in the oil and checked for leaks but did not find
any yet, but my mechanic said we should look again in a few days. (There
is a wet patch in my driveway) Meanwhile, the car does not appear to be
burning...

PCV valve -- dealer only? by
Terry
I've been trying to find a PCV valve for my 2000 Saturn Lseries wagon,
with no luck....I've been told they are dealer only items, which is hard to
believe, since they are such a common tune-up item. Anyone know?
Thanks,

PCM problem update by
Lee3333
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
