I have a 2005 Saturn Vue, 4 cyl, manual transmission. All of a sudden when I am driving, the car seems like it is running out of gas. I can pull over, shut it off, then restart it and it is fine. It is happening more often now. I do have a check engine light that stays on all the time, but when this happens the light starts to blink.

If you have a code reader, I would check the code to see what is happening.

The engine check light is telling you there is something wrong - you should go to your nearest garage and they can read the code and fix your problem - by ignoring the light you may be doing serous damage to the engine.

SOURCE: 2002 Saturn Vue V6 Loss of Power

Yup. The throttle body connectors have a history of failing on these cars. Replace the throttle body and the wire connectors that go to it, and you're back in business. Not terribly difficult and you can get the parts from any dealer. Saturn actually has a bulletin out on this problem but they won't cover it unless you're under warranty - no recall for this.

SOURCE: Cannot locate battery terminals on 2005 Saturn Vue re: jump

they don't want you too ... there is a terminal usually near one of the strut towers with a red cap on it and you hook up the ground to any where else metal is showing.

the scan tool that you are using will not read codes from all of the modules. take the car to a gm dealer to have it checked with a tech2

My Saturn 2003 Vue has 146,000 miles and all of sudden will not go into gear. No warning lights or engine lights came on.This is a 4 cylinger 2.4 engine front wheel drive. What could be the problem?

DOES THE VEHICLE SEEM TO GO INTO LIMP MODE AROUND 20 MILES BEFORE IT DOES THIS. IF THIS OCCURS THEN THERE IS A SENSOR ON THE TRANSMISSION WHICH CAUSES THIS PROBLEM CHECK WITH YOUR DEALERSHIP AND THEY WILL GIVE YOU MORE INFORMATION

Test drove 04 Saturn Vue and seems to have problem shifting. Is this normal??? How do we know if it is the transmission

If it has a four cylinder engine and it is an automatic, stay away from it. They used a variable "non-shifting" transmission in four cylinder models into 2005. They are known to fail and in most cases will stop moving altogether. If you don't feel it shifting while you are test driving, this is actually normal for that type of transmission.

If it is a V6 then there might be other issues not related to the transmission.

Cannot locate oil drain plug on 2004 Saturn Vue

It is probably a bit different on the 4-cyl engines than the V6 engines. I'll assume you have the V6 for the moment since those seemed to be more popular.

On the 3.5L V6, the drain plug is behind the passenger side wheel well and I believe takes a 17mm socket/wrench to remove.

Where is the fuel filter on a Saturn Vue 2004?

It is part of the fuel pump module inside the fuel tank, all the cars are starting to use this type of setup, the filter is only serviced when the fuel pump fails.
