Well... My car has just reached 101,000 miles... I love my car. It's beautiful, has mods, etc. The car is almost 10 years old and it seems that I'm having this "burning oil" problem. I have to put oil in my car everytime I put gas in. The dealership said it would cost thousands to fix it, more than the car is worth. I just put brand-new brakes on for $300, including the rotors. The "check service light" goes on about 1+ times per month. Usually it's just something little like that gas cap isn't on all the way - apparently it was rusted! The car guys wondered why it was rusted when it's plastic on metal. I have to be EXTREMELY careful when I put gas in my car as it's touchy. It just went on again. I Have to take in the car the third time in one week... I also had problems with it starting in the summer, 90 degree weather, and it stalls out, yet no problems in the winter? weird... they just replaced the fuel filter for $200!I'm putting so much money into this car... Does anyone know how to fix an oil problem? I'm tired of taking it to the shop... They over charge... I was also told by guys at work that oil problems lead to engine problems. I don't want my engine to go bad! HELP!Should I get a new car? Not a saturn???- June, helpless female...

Drive it untill it's dead ... Then go look at the Saturn Astra, it's nothing like what your driving now.

What's like the Saturn Astra? You wouldn't recommend trying to fix the oil problem or getting a new car?
