1997 Saturn SC review from North America
"Excellent reliability"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
ERG valve replaced.
Water pump gasket replaced.
Battery replaced.
General comments?
This car has been absolutly a perfect. I had it 6 years spent 250$ on parts and another 250$ on installing those parts.
I change all fluids annually except oil which is every 5,000 Kilometres and it only burns 1/2 litre of oil between oil chages at 250,000Ks.
Sold it this year to my daughter and bougth a 2003 Ion.
