Hello all, my name is dennis & I own a 2005 Saturn Ion sedan. Love this car! It rides nice and gets ~30-32mpg. I just posted about a popping noise and i see a couple responses, i do appreciate the help. The car has ~116k and here are specs: L4 2.2L MFI DOHC (taken from VIN decoder online). didn't realize these small engines had Dual cams? but i'm learning something new constantly. I think i have a GM 4T45E transaxle (tranny); but still researching and next chance i get to crawl around, will look for a stamp or some engraving on the tranny.
Thanks for letting me on the forum & have enjoyed reading thru so far.
we also own a 2000 Honda Odyssey (~217k). trying keep her running too. My daughter drives a 2003 Dodge Ram 4x4 p/u with ~202k on it that we found lying dead at a used car lot. it's now a limping dead p/u

Welcome to the forum, Dennis. Your daughter should go to allpar.com to figure out things about her Ram. I'm also a member there. YOU need to stick around here to learn about your Saturn and join in.
