Asked by BobwireJones Jun 11, 2015 at 01:14 PM about the 2001 Saturn L-Series 4 Dr L100 Sedan

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

If I start my Saturn and let it just idle, it over heats and the air condition blows but its not 'cold' air. If im driving down the highway, giving the car gas the car does not over heat and the air seems to work fine. If I stop in traffic or at a red light/stop sign the temperature gage begins to rise slowly and the air condition stops blowing 'cold' air.

Check the electric cooling fans by the radiator. One should come on when the AC is turned on, the other is therostatically controlled.

Currently own a 03 Saturn L200. Beautiful car! Lost power steering last night. Got home and noticed that the lock ring on the end of the pump was partially displaced. Reinstalled the ring but no power steering. Fluid level is ok. I cant determine if the pump is working as its directly geared to the camshaft? Tried looking in the rocker cover but they have installed a baffle where I need to look. When looking in the resevoir with the engine running, I see no oil movement. Sounds like a pump to me. Any ideas would be appreciated! 1 Answer

I was a mechanic many years ago so 'mechanically inclined. That being said, I know nothing about this model (just bought it for my wife)
