2001 Saturn SL SL1 review from North America
"Good for the money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
At 18,000 miles my transmission blew up, but from doing a smoke show, at 50,000 miles my head cracked, and at 102,000 my radiator side post cracked.
General comments?
Good running car for a saturn. Used to burn a lot of oil, but I poured Lucas in with the oil and it fixed the problem.
