My SC2 finally became parked. It started showing 'shift slamming' and I read
in a few places that you can replace the fluid and maybe solve it if you're
lucky. I may try this. Otherwise you're looking at a whole new 'transmission
valve body' and I'd probably rather sell the car. Anyone have an idea what
it's worth then in present condition?

Just looking for some extra thoughts!

Cheapest route. It may prove effective. If it is the "reverse slam"
issue then it is often very curable.

From this information??? SC2 97 with transmissin problems tells me
nothing. >:\ I'll offer you 5 bucks though!

I can give you a ballpark figure:

What is the body condition
What is the mileage
What condition is the interior in

These cars don't retain resale value like a Chevy or a Pontiac.

I had the old slam problem, took it to saturn and found it was a very
normal problem with automatics and they fixed it (loose nut) for $68.
As far as retaining there value I purchased my used 97 for 3500 3
years ago and I can still sell it with 165k miles for around 3,000

Ask whoever is willing to pay that, if they have a brother?

KBB is inflated for the $2000.00 push, pull or drag it in sales.

Black book, NADA.

Search saturnfans.com forums and you'll find a procedure to try that some
have reported successful at fixing it, or at least making it better.
