Cool new forum member, old saturn owner!

Hi, so i had a saturn in highschool - was my first car to enter the world into and i was a pizza delivery girl. My car was always needing SOME attention some how ;p I did more work on it that I really remember including but not limited to changing the starter, the belt tensioner, the water pump and a plethora of routine maintenance things. I had a Honda between saturns which gave me a nice litte 4 year break of not having to do ANY repair work above and beyond routine maintenance i still wonder why i got another saturn but touche! Some punk kid trying to beat me to an 8 am class ended up *not stopping at a red light* behind me and ran up my rear - FOUR weeks after having her, totalled the car, but still in good condition relatively after the trunk and bumper were fixed and repaired. i just didnt feel like shopping for another car with the chump change nationwide was going to give me for her lol. right at a year after having the car --- of course the transmission goes out, kaplut just like that. i mean what would you expect with a saturn right? thats how i feel about it except my first saturn at least waited till the 200k mark. this car was rockin 120k and i was not about to turn her over, so my husband and i researched it and learned about solenoids going bad as a typical issue in saturns. We fixed her for right at 100$... thats what i call a win now we are having ac/something with coolant levels issues.... bum! but i posted in S series if you wanna go spread some of your overflowing experience and knowledge on me
