My car acts like it is going to die when I come to a stop

I have an 03 saturn ion quad coupe, and whenever i come to a complete stop, my car like shakes and rattles as if it were going to die but doesnt. and whenever I go to take off, it's like my car is stuck and it jumps into gear...


what could this be?
Ive been told it's the shocks but Im not so sure.
Sometimes it feels as if the brakes are not coming unlocked..

any advise?

    Not shocks. Could be a sticky caliper or bad piston on a caliper.

More likely the transmission - could be the overdrive solenoid is stuck in the engaged position.

SOURCE: power window fell down inside door

there are clips holding the door panel around the edges. to remove the clips, use a small screwdriver to feel for them, then use another one to pull the panel on the other side. Pull outward from both sides of the clip until it comes loose. Do this repeatedly, and then loosen and remove the arm rest.

Pull the window up and have a helper hold it as you work it back into the track.

Good luck.

SOURCE: Saturn Ion shakes when started.

I would take the vehicle in to a mechanic.
There could be damage internally with the engine.
or the transmission.

SOURCE: 03 Saturn ION radio not working after battery change.

dealerships are usually very helpful with pulling the codes and unlocking it. Catch them on a good day and they may do if for free. if not they usually charged about $60..

I need to know how to replace the side mirror on 2007 Saturn Ion

You may be lucky and just have to remove the top section just behind the mirror. Usually you have to remove the door panel to access the bolts.

Hello, i have a 2004 saturn ion quad coupe, and i shiped it overseas to use it. saturn doesnt exist in the middle east so there is no parts, i asked alot n people say that SATURN has the same OPEL parts....

Good question, the answer is "yes", "no", and "maybe". GM shares a lot of parts internationaly with Opel, Saturn, GM, Chevy, Pontiac, etc. Especialy engine parts. Chassis and body is a different story. You may find tie rods, struts, etc the same, but a headlight won't fit from one to the other. If you've got a 2004 Saturn Ion, you likely have a 2.2 EcoTec. Pretty much all EcoTec parts will fit in one form or another, from one to another. Alternators, starters, etc. You may need to swap plug locations or types, but the actual hard part should "fit". You would need to go dumpster diving to compare or contrast. I guess it all depends on what you need? the Stick
