1996 Saturn SC SC2 review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
A misfire on #3 spark plug @ 9004 miles - just erased memory.
Misfire #3 @ 18000 dealer changed plugs and added fuel cleaner.
@ 36000 throttle stuck making for many misfires. Changed EGR valve.
General comments?
This car is only serviced by me except for warranty issues. Oil changed every 3000 mi and the rest at recommended intervals (lube filters etc). I don't really trust anybody (so called experts). There was a trainee working on it the second time telling me somethings so they don't even drive it out of the lot and I watch them work on it. Which is nice! You really don't have a clue what they do out on the highway. Don't get me wrong, they are very good from what I've seen.
