You may be hydro locked. pull your air filter and see if it's full of water. then pull your spark plugs and turn the engine over. see if you blow any water out of the cylinders. if you didn't damage it, you should be able to get it started with a new filter and spark plugs.

make sure to check your fuses and ground wires first. when you are set on which part is bad do a quick check of everything else before you jump into it.

SOURCE: how do i reset the oil light on a 03 saturn vue? i

The procedure you used is for the 2006 > Vue, and will not work on your 2003. For the 2002-2005 Saturn Vue V4 or V6 - Under the hood you will see a black fuse box behind the battery. Open it up and you will see a red button, it is small and looks like a fuse but on the top it will say Oil-Res. Turn on the ignition & press and hold that button for about 10 seconds. You may want to have a friend sit in the driver's seat and watch for the indicator to start flashing, which indicates you've activated the reset. Turn off the ignition and that will reset the Oil light.

I have a 2004 pt cruiser got stuck in mud ran hot and died it will crank but wont start.

Clean any water out from under distributer cap and check the oil make sure there is no water in it (it will look milky) check radiator make sure there is no oil in it. spray a small amount of starter fluid into air cleaner (you can get it at any auto parts store) and try starting it again.

Try a shot of starting fluid or gas into the intake through a vacuum line.Keep the throttle closed and if it starts you may need a fuel pump.

Engine needs to crank over strong and steady to have a chance of starting. Youi said it has a poor crank. Battery may be low or bad. If you get the engine to crank over corrrectly and it srill does not start check fuel pressure, spark and injector pulse.

03 saturn view cranks but wont start

first of all, check the fuel pump relay to see if it is going bad. if it is ok! also try this, Have a person turn key to on,, and put your hand on bottom of fuel tank. if the pump is turning on, you will feel a vibration in tank. you may have to do this a few times. the pump only turns on for a few seconds to pressurize system, or to get fuel to the engine. just keep turning key on and off to recycle fuel pump. Good-Day! Hope this helps! relay for pump may be bad.< Check this first.

2005 saturn vue, have rubbing sound when turning steering wheel at low speeds,occurs when backing up or going foward

I would start by inspecting the tire and wheel well for any physical contact. Outside of that, is sounds like a wheel bearing. A failing wheel bearing or a bearing with a flat spot will groan and sometimes mimic the sound of mud tires. A flat spot can be causes by even a slight impact the the wheel.

2002 VUE will not start.

what is "lots of power"? battery should have a reading of over 12 volts not running, 12.6 is perfect. if it's under 10 volts depending on
how much current the starter draws it may not crank. don't be fooled by the presence of dash lights, radio etc. the starter needs a lot of power to turn the motor. usually I don't see too many weak starters that can't crank the engine. most of the time they have an internal failure and just don't crank.

'03' Vue has trouble starting

Sounds like the fuel pump may be going out. By the way the power steering is electric in Saturn, so it does not require the engine to be running.
