i need help!!!
I have a 02 Saturn sl2 auto that I'm looking to know a couple things about.
First is it has 182k and it burns oil pretty bad. And i was wondering if it would be better just to get the motor sleeved or see if I can just put new rings in it.
Second is I want to put a 5 speed in it and was wondering what all i need to get or if its even worth it. Let me know thanks.

I have done all of that, but not on a Saturn. If I were to do a transmission swap I would look to buy a running parts car. Chasing down bits and pieces is a bit much if you don't have to. Personally I don't think it is worth the effort but that is my opinion. It is a good transmission and quite versatile. As a 4 speed automatic with a lock up torque converter it is the equivalent of a 5 speed anyway.
As to the oil consumption? The only way out is to go through a rebuild. Current suggestions apply as stated.

And welcome.
