Re: How similar is the Aura XR to the Vectra VXR?
Essentially they are two completely separate cars. Even though they are both on the "Epsilon" platform, it's even modified from the Vectra.
When I was in Europe, I saw several, and it's easy to...

Re: Seriously Considering this Aura; Opinions?
3.6 is newer technology, MUCH more powerful. Less fuel economy. 6-spd automatic.
3.5 is more efficient, reliable, but less refined.
I was happy with my 3.5 for the four years I had my AURA.

Re: Seriously Considering this Aura; Opinions?
Looks okay to me. Actually I think it's a good price, as long as the car is in good shape. I love leather, but the cloth isn't bad.
I disagree about the comment with the 3.5. Having owned an XE...

Farewell Saturn! It's been a great ride!
After six years, and a total of over 127,000 miles, I'm moving on from Saturn. It's been a great ride. I owned a 2004 Saturn Ion 3 (SE Sedan) followed by a 2007 Saturn AURA XE. I really enjoyed the...

Re: Is changing brake pads difficult?
Not too bad. I finally did my brakes by myself, with the assistance of my Dad. It wasn't too bad... Saved lots of cash.
Make sure you get the tool to crank the pistons back in. AutoZone rents them...

Re: Pontiac Solstice wheels on my Aura
Those wheels look really fly on your AURA. I upgraded to XR 18s on my Aura, especially after I had several 17' OEM steelies that were out-of-round. Unloaded my old rims, covers, and bald-ish tires...

Re: Very Frustrated With Wiper Blades
I also recently installed Rain-X Latitude. Not bad, but not as great as I was expecting. As I posted earlier, I have been using Trico neoform wipers, and these are similar quality IMO.

Re: Coolant leak
I had the same problem, and my reservoir tank was replaced under warranty.
However, my AURA still requires a bit of coolant every 4-5 months, even though it isn't leaking.

Re: Rod Knock in 2008 aura
That turnaround actually isn't so bad. Glad to hear it was covered under warranty. This is the first I've heard of that problem on this car.
