Shifting problems
Tuesday, April 08, 2008 6:33 PM
Just recently my ion has been shifting hard. If I floor it in first gear it displays "error" on the screen on the dash and then shifts like I have broken transmission mounts. Only problem is, my mounts aren't broken. If I shut the car off and start it again it goes away and shifts fine. But, if I floor it again it does the same thing. Any thoughts?

Stop flooring it

Sorry, just busting your balls. I really have no valuable input other than see if you can pick up any codes with a scanner.

Mine did that once, but only once. Got the error message too. I'd get it scanned from the dealership for sure.

Well, after numerous problems with my Ion I was able to influence Saturn that it was in fact a lemon. I got every cent back that I paid on it I just picked up my new car, a 2008 Civic LX. This car is light years ahead of the Ion. I'll post some pics of it later today.

Yeah... I was gonna say your first problem was getting an Ion.

Hahah sweet!! I'm ditching my Ion soon as well. What a horrible little car it turned out to be. I'll be getting a Civic as well.

Awesome....you can't go wrong with a civic. I'm sure GM wishes they could go back in time and never release that pos called the Ion

I think the whole delta platform should be scrapped.. It's barely a step up from the Jbody..
