Q: Low rpm idle at 1 to 1.5k, can not get rpms over 3k

An external oil leak is generally caused by a leaking seal and typically not a cracked piston, while a cracked piston is not completely uncommon, it generally doesn't cause an oil leak unless it has come apart and popped a...

You got a loss of power due to a fault with the system closing the throttle as a built in safety factor. The reduced power indicator is telling you that it went in to a failure mode and caused the...

It sounds like you are describing the BCM (Body Control Module) (https://www.yourmechanic.com/article/symptoms-of-a-bad-or-failing-electronic-brake-control-module-ebcm). It usually has 3-4 connectors. Saturn vehicles are unique. Like many vehicles, there are not any other vehicles that I know of that you can use for parts....

You need to look at the oil pressure sending unit just above the oil filter to see if it got damaged when changing the oil filter. If it is the sending unit, then replace it since the fuel pressure will...

Hi there, the automatic transmission will have pressure switches that activate a system to engage a gear or gear set. When the vehicle wants second gear, the computer will activate the pressure switch to allow hydraulic pressure to clamp down...

Hi, thanks for writing in. This is a very unique design - the radiator fan uses power steering hydraulic fluid to operate. Your husband likely opened the power steering lines during radiator replacement, allowing air to enter the system. Fortunately,...

Hi there. Check the suspension and the shock absorber and look for anything broken, leaking, or damaged. Replace the shock absorber is there is any dents or it is leaking oil out of it. A loose suspension component or a...

Hi Darryl. Thanks for contacting us today. Generally speaking, a single cylinder misfire will gradually create a steady vibration, but not stop when you're accelerating. The type of vibration you're describing is often caused by a transmission or engine mount,...

The fault is probably engine related. Loss of power on acceleration can be due to plugged fuel injectors, faulty oxygen sensors, fuel pump and/or filter, vacuum leaks including that caused by a faulty EGR system, ignition system malfunctions, bad valve...
