2005 Saturn L300 Questions & Answers

  • What can I tow in a Saturn? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small it is. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your L300’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my L300's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Saturn L300’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform.

The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Saturn L300? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Saturn L300, potentially causing transmission problems.
