new guy with low milage '99 saturn
Hello - my name is Matt - the proud owner of a '99 saturn sl2 with approx 80 k miles on it.
so far i get anywhere from 30 to 36 miles per gallon with pretty concervative driving and changing my oil every 3000 miles. looking for some more ways i can get better gas milage |
Those old Saturns were already good aerodynamically-wise. Is yours manual or automatic?

Use full synthetic oil. If a manual, do EoffC.

Welcome to the site.
If you don't already, its highly recommended to get some form of instrumentation to help you drive better. A scangauge, or OBDII dongle with bluetooth and torque app for your phone work well. |
Welcome.
Saturn was a really interesting chapter in the history of GM. Too bad GM went back to their corporate ways and started importing Opels to be branded into Saturns. I think you have one of the ones that's from the independent-thinking era. It's lightweight for its size and as somebody else already said, not bad aerodynamically for a sedan. I think there's a plenty of potential there. |
