I have a 97 saturn sl and i was pulling out of my parking spot when i noticed that it felt like i had driven over a bump as i was backing up. it only does it while i have the wheel turned. i have 17in rims on my car just in case it matters. thank you

Nuetral safety switch.

Flat battery , u might have left the lights on

take the console out and look under the shifter, if the shifter cables are disconnected from the shifter go to a parts store or ebay and get yourself a Saturn shifter bushing repair kit. happens all the time to S Saturns and maybe the Ls look on youtube for instructions to remove console and put on the bushing kit.

if the shifter cables are still connected you may have to be looking around for a lower mileage used transmission. 96-98 saturn will fit so long as the donor car has the same head, being DOHC or SOHC. so if you have an SL1 you can use a transmission out of another SL1, or an SC1, or an SW1. do not mix a 2 with a 1, bad mojo.

Have someone replace the broken
exhaust system part !!!!

I had this problem when my 97 sc1 was first given to me. It turned out to be in the automatic trans shifter anti theft switch. I just removed center console and disarmed it. try slamming shifter into park and see if it makes a difference, don't forget to push in on the key a little before turning.

place your body weight over the strut and push the car up and down,a bad strut will give no resistance and will feel soft, as the car will do when driven over a uneaven surface.come back to me with result and i will tell you how to replace.adrian,,,,

It may be that the seat or the margin on the valve was cut wrong.....

I believe you need to press and hold the volume/power knob on the radio then push the tune button - you'll notice small words under the different sides of the button for "hr" and "min"

sounds like a selecter fork broke or dislodge

in the center console there is a shift lock solenoid you can just remove it if you want let me know hey tell fixya bout me ok
