Jeff[_11_]
I have a 1998 SL1 SOHC that is not passing the "check engine light"
portion of the CA smog test. I got it from a charitable organization

sensor that was causing...

I had just filled the tank and gotten underway when it occurred to me to

the reset button is by putting your hand through the opening...

Best tires to buy for SW2 by
J B
About a year or so ago I read a thread on here that mentioned a tire
that some drivers wanted to buy for their Saturns. Seemed the consensus
was that brand was the best and helped make for a real smooth ride.
Considering how low my SW2 sits I'd like to get tires that would help
make riding in it as...

96 SL2 Maintenance Question by
Fantine
I have a low mileage 96 Saturn SL2 (23,000 miles). The belt(s) and hoses
have never been replaced. I recently read a "Click and Clack" column about
low mileage cars and they suggested that belts and hoses are some of the
items on low mileage that need to be replaced due to possible ozone...

Well, back to the SL1 by
Joe[_6_]
Had the chance to "swap" my 1995 SL1 for a 2002(?) SW2 wagon. My SL1 has
160,000 miles, eats oil and is stick. The SW2 is auto, doesn't eat oil and
has less than 60,000 on it. It is also in perfect condition. Cost to swap
for me would have been $0. However, I just "returned" the SW2 to my...

marx404
I am thinking for going back to a Dynomax Super Turbo Muffler like I had on
my '94 SL2. Is there a specific pre-made mounting strap that I can buy to
direct mount this muffler properly to my 2002 SC2?
Oh, this is quite a loud muffler, not quite as loud as others but if anyone

2006 Saturn Performance Club Rally - photos and video by
Lane
Another annual Saturn Performance Club Rally has passed and it was a heck of
an enjoyable week (8/1/2006 - 8/5/2006). Hard to believe this was the ninth

Bad news, possible cracked head by
J B
Took my SW2 in to Sears Auto for an oil change. After doing the job they
told me to take the car into an engine shop ASAP, because when they
pulled the dipstick out a little smoke was coming out and "that usually
means a cracked head gasket". So all the money I spent at the Saturn
dealership trying...

Torx head bolts holding down the assembly are tight (had a doozy of a

Joe[_6_]
I've heard some folks talk about running hotter plugs to keep them from
fouling on the SL1 engines that burn oil. Anyone know what plug is actually

said my stock plugs are the hottest available except for these...
