  • What can I tow in a Saturn? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your SL2 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my SL2's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Maintaining your Saturn SL2 transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health.
