The older Saturns are dated, but I don’t care about that. I am interested
only if they are reliable and safe, and I am happy that you had good
experiences with the car.
Owned my 1996 Saturn since new, no engine, transmission, electrical or A/C
problems since I’ve owned it. You do need to check your oil every week but
they are reliable, safe, cars. I have 170,300 miles on my odometer.
Are you a fan of Saturns? Or was that just the brand of car you happened to
have? I see them used fairly frequently in my neck of the woods, and am
curious as to whether they’re good cars.
I’ve owned both Gen 1 and 2 S-series. Both ran to over 300k. I’d still be
driving my ’92 if someone didn’t back into it. That car is a ’95, highly
desirable because of the Gen 1 exterior and Gen 2 dash and other interior
pieces. Done this operation, but not as well as you, Rich.
Why did you remove the window, was the slider broken? We owners of older
Saturn S series are starting to experience window failures. Could you show
us the broken track slider and how to fix the window? My two rear windows
have problems and my driver’s window is getting really sloppy. Thanks
Great video. If you are changing a window regulator on a gen 1 SC2 would
you have to do the same procedure with those two pieces that need the
spanner wrench?
I used to have a saturn, they are really good on gas and easy maintenance
overall is a good car, I know some people dont like saturn’s models only
for the aspect and how it looks.
Hey Rich: Great info. I have sad news though, I had to sell my wife’s 1999
Saturn SL. The transmission valve door was going on it. I sold the car on
craigslist. ‘The car sold fast. The person who purchased it said after he
fixed the valve door the car is running great. Saturn cars are great.
Unfortunately, my wife wanted a new car and I did not have the space, cash
or skills to handle a valve door job.
Rich, thank you again – your video saved me so much time. Do you know if on
the window regulator on the 94 Saturn if the bar where the wheel slides
within it – does that come with a new unit or do you have to bend the rail
to take the sliding wheel out? I keep breaking teeth on the regulator geer
and I am going to replace the whole unit.
Great, as always. Of course Rich loves his Saturn. Don’t know what you guys
watching are thinking. His SL2 is a ’98? Which means he may have had it
since ’97? Have a Saturn that long and it becomes part of your DNA (or vice
versa).

Also some not too sharp needle nose pliers and if needed, the long
screwdriver as a lever to spin the pliers.
I am both a fan an a owner…. love the little car..

That car looked liked it was sitting in a junkyard – seems like he needed
the glass for either a replacement – or demonstration purposes.
Dude, you rock! Your videos have saved me hundreds. Thank you.
I was thinking about it but there are not many around.
Hey Rich would you ever buy one of those Saturn Ions ?

Very good.
Was expecting a typical window procedure, NICE JOB improvising !!
It must be my boy scout training.

They really design these cars poorly, so much work to remove something so
simple
Very good idea using those two bolts!!
Actually, I learn so much from your other videos so I will alway always
tune into your latest uploads. I appreciate your insight and wisdom. .

Oh, by the way, I meant the VALVE BODY not valve door !
Yes as the window has to be removed to remove the regulator.

There isnt much that stops you is there 🙂 I like that spanner wrench,
never seen one of those before 🙂
