[QUOTE="Bai, post: 1046276, member: 279463"] today, i was driving home and was at a stop sign. i turned right and began to press the gas to accelerate...the car did these huge jerks....forward, backward....they were hard long jerks. i wanted to hurry and get home, so the more i pressed the gas the harder and longer the jerk.... anyways, i got scared and tapped my breaks and pulled into my yard...thank goodness the stop sign was only 1 minute from my yard. what could this be?.....i just had new spark plugs put on in march. 2 years ago i replaced my transmission...and 2 weeks ago i got my oil changed. however, i have been riding around with my service engine soon light on for about 3 weeks now. what do ya'll think it could possibly be? i just want an idea of how bad it could be.....so i wont be shocked if repairs are 50 dollars or 3000 dollars. thank you. it is a 2000 SL 4 door Saturn. 135,000 miles. I've had it for 3 years. [/QUOTE]
