Ok guys…. I bought my 05 ion redline 13 years ago and a couple years later I lost my license for 9 years due to racing. Got my license back a few years ago but finally put my redline back on the road in March 2021. I’m chasing a clutch issue and hoping someone can help. My clutch is fully...

Hello, I've got an 04 Ion Redline with 195,000 miles on it and it's rusty, but runs great. My gear box is making a grinding sound at idle. In gear and if I move the stick around it stops, but if I press and release the clutch at idle it starts again. I changed the transmission fluid and found...

I was removing the cv axle on the passenger side of my 04 redline and the cv joint is stuck in the intermediate shaft that goes into the tranny. I removed the whole intermediate shaft and the cv joint will not come so I'm gonna have to order a new intermediate shaft. I uploaded the link/pic that...

Hi, I'm trying to troubleshoot my 2007 Saturn Ion 3 with the 2.2, automatic transmission. I am getting a loud whirring noise (similar to when a CD "rewinds") when I accelerate. The noise is intermittent and generally only during acceleration around 35-50 mph. It does not help to let off the...

I have lost my bottom gears (2, 4, &R) in my '04 Ion Redline. Took it to a small country mechanic and he said that I need a whole new transmission!!!! up to $3,500. Is he correct, or is there a more economical fix? Background: 2nd gear has always been difficult to catch, but now it is gone...

My throwout bearing has started to make some noise so in a few weeks I plan on pulling my transmission out and redoing all the bearings etc. Unfortunately I don't have a transmission jack and I was wondering if anyone has removed their tranny and can tell me approximately how heavy it is! If...

I started hearing a roar in the front drivers side of my car a few weeks ago, I figured it was a wheel bearing and didn't think much of it since my daily driving is max 40 mph and 10 min at a time. after about two weeks the roar got really loud. last week I got the car up on the lift and...

So I left my RL sitting for a couple of days because I had plenty of errands and decided to take my more fuel effecient 03 Quadcoupe. I drove off in the RL yesterday everything seemed fine, as I came to a redlight i was in 4rth and decided to let the revs come down. Thats when it happened, a...

I have a 2005 ION Redline which I love. I have a decent commute to and from work each day so my mileage is getting up there (108,000) but for the most part the car runs great. Today I get to a freeway onramp and as I change from 1st to 2nd gear there's a big clunk. (Just light acceleration...

I have a 2005 RL and every time i start to car, it sounds as if something is rubbing or grinding lightly against something. As i pull off in first gear the grinding noise is still there and as i shift into 2nd it stays until i shift into 3rd and so on. Only in first and 2nd will the noise occur...

I searched the board and couldn't find an answer to this. About 1 in 10 shifts into 1st gear from a dead stop, the gear shift lever refuses to budge—no amount of force can make it go. I have to lift up off the clutch, push it back down, and then it'll let me shift. All other gears shift just...

Hello everyone, New to the forums. 2004 Silver Saturn Ion Redline. I'm wondering if anyone has an estimate or rough price I should expect on replacing the synchro ring for 5th gear. The clutch won't stay in. Big question is whether they can do it with the tranny in the vehicle still or if they...

So I know we all love our Ion Redlines here - but as my new user name suggests...I think I have a lemon. Here is the history: Purchased the Ion redline in 2004 - new (probably the first mistake, I know). In the first couple years I had endless fit and finish problems - some of my favorites...
