Tech Question, non 3rd gen. (Saturn related)
Tech Question, non 3rd gen. (Saturn related)
Ok, I don't know what you guys know about saturns, but the guys on the saturn forum dont know anything.
I have a 93 sl2 with the auto tranny. Lately it's been reluctant to downshift unless I give it more gas. It also shifts really hard at all speeds. It seems like it shifts real late, and then its a big jolt. My friend who's said to ask about the TV cable or something to that effect. He wasn't sure what you called it, or even if saturns have tv cables. Anyone know what this could be? The tranny fluid is fine. Please let me know, so I can start saving if I need to rebuild the tranny or something expensive like that. Thanks guys

I'm no Saturn expert but it sounds like the vac. modulator hose is off.
I don't even know for sure if they have one...but if they do, thats where I would start.
