My Saturn has 133,000 miles and has been an extremely reliable car. Just in the last couple of months I have been having trouble with it starting. When I go to work, it starts right up. when i come out of work, it starts right up. when I have to do errands and make numerous starts, it won't start. I have to push the clutch in and out a couple of times and after 3 or 4 attempts, it will start. Starter or Clutch relay? thanks and appreciate any info. Eric

When it doesnt start, what happens? Clicking? Nothing? Need more info pls.

It does absolutely nothing. all the lights come on in the dash but no clicks, nothing.

Sounds like a solenoid. Not really expensive or hard to change. Could even be the plunger. Take the step by step directions in this guide on this site, it should help, but i think its your solenoid.
