Add diesel to oil for change? by Richard
Is this okay to do??? Easy Flushes When Changing Oil Drain out about one quart of oil. Replace that quart of oil with a quart of diesel. Run the engine (in place) for 3 minutes. Do NOT drive the car with the diluted oil in it. The diesel will help clean out passages in the head and will make the...

I love traction control by Oppie
We're having a heck of a blizard today in Metro New York. Had to make a few erands before the snow got too high and was driving in aobut 4" of powder snow. The 'low traction' light was on for a good portion of the trip and it was certainly no speed demon as the system cut the throttle to...

Who Killed the Electric Car? by marx404
I just rented this movie, for those who don't know all about Saturn's EV1 project ( I didn't know much until seeing this movie and googleing for more info) it is a definite eye opener and very informative on where alternative powered car technology started and where it is going and especially what...

Sheesh what happened to Saturn? by Scott Stoddard
So I went to buy a new Saturn. Based on my previous experience with Saturn I was expecting a pleasant, straight forward, purchasing experience. You know, all the things I used to associate with Saturn, priority on customer satisfaction, no hassle pricing, everybody pays MSRP etc. So I buy a new...

missing my Saturn by Justin
My previous car was a '98 SL1 4 door, 5 speed, gold. Now I drive a '99 Chevy Venture minivan. I should have bought a Saturn SL1 or SL2 wagon. Japanese cars like the Civic or Corolla might have better fit/finish but are a lot more boring than the Saturn. Saturns have character. When the Venture...

Vue Hybrid *** WARNING *** by Spam away
I looked at the Vue Hybrid at a recent auto show. Very nice, but for one very significant design aspect that keeps me from buying it. The previous Vue had a compact spare which didn't do the job for me due to winter driving long distances on remote roads. So I judged this Vue only reliable for...

Two Saturns, one key by David Teichholtz
When I bought my 97 SL1, it came with two keys. The ignition switch had been replaced and the idiots who did it did not bother to have the switch coded to the car. Today, while doing some other work to the car which involved having one of the door skins off, I decided to pull both door lock...

Donating Car to Rural Charity... by Joe[_11_]
1995 SL1 - SOHC I've been working with a charity in rural NY state for close to 20 years... And they need a donated car that runs well for a theme-oriented use. It would be donated forever and they would probably only put a few thousand miles per year on it, but it will idle and ride around...

If Saturn goes, I will NEVER buy another GM car by Usenet User
I expect GM to survive in one form or another. But if GM drops or stops the Saturn brand, I am done with GM cars and so is the rest of the family. We have been loyal Saturn car owners and have found them superior and different than other GM cars. We have owned six Saturn vehicles over the years...

Does this seem right..? by Elector
Ten days ago I went to the Saturn dealership in Albany New York and had the 60,000 mile service. This was an oil change, a transmission flush and fill, lube all doors and what ever else they said came with that service. At the same time they said the motor mounts were bad and I had them replaced...

Massive Black Dot Problem by Jennifer
I've got a white SL-2 with tons of black dots all over it - I thought tree sap; my mechanic thinks bug juice from gypsy moths last year. Our cars are parked under trees outside our house, and there is no way not to have them under trees where we are. We've researched and tried many products (well,...

Saturns Suck! by Dennis Hamilton
I bought a 94 Saturn SL1. At 35,000 miles the alternator went out. At 60,000 miles that transmission went. Saturn graciously agreed that their transmission should last for more than 60,000 miles and replaced the tranny ($600) if I paid the labor ($800). Less than 60,000 miles later the...
