Actually it's the Electronics. The Electronics in the NA epsilon 1 platform doesn't work with in dash nav. They would have to retool it. The 09 Aura could get a revised interior. Maybe indash navi and arm rest. They will put in navi for the Epsilon 2 platform.

Has anyone driven both a 08 Malibu LTZ and a Aura XR?
 
Wondering how they compare back to back.

anyone hear a low frequency sound above 40mph coming from the front end. I thought it was a low tire but thats not the case. I cant figure it out but I would like to know before I take it in for oil change. The car is so quiet that you can hear every little sound, including this one.

What does it sound like, is it high or low pitched?

The only sound I hear up front is the stinking power steering pump. If the darn engine would make more noise like my Cadillac, I'd never hear the pump and be happy.

We have had the same problem with the thumping in the steering wheel. They replaced the part about a month ago & now it's back worse. Went today to get oil changed & pointed out the problem, said it needed to be greased & the guy who did it was not there on Saturdays . Showed him the separating of the panels under my drivers side door, he came back & said it's exactly the same on all 4 of your doors & that's normal. We have brown leather interior & it's starting to show wear & peel where the seat belt hits it on the drivers side door. He told me they'd replace it only once. But he came back & said that until there is actually a hole there they won't touch it. I've only had this a car a year, I expected more out of this car & more out of service. This is the 3rd Saturn we've bought from the same dealership but their customer service has gotten really bad. I will fight to get these things fixed, it will be the last Saturn I buy.

Dealer add-on protection by brad30

Did any of your saturn dealers "require" the add-on paint/fabric protection. I have either gotten some half-truths from a sales person or the dealership I had hoped to purchase from "requires" this protection plan ~ $400. I haven't seen anything about it in Saturn corp materials (but I may have overlooked) but I am not sure if I can negotiate this away (given Saturn no negotiation) or simply negotiate by buying elsewhere.

One word regarding the "Required" package: SCAM!
 
If this dealer is your only Saturn dealer around, tell them that you're going to talk with the BBB. If they're not the only dealer, don't walk, RUN away.
 
Another thought regarding the limited number of dealerships scenario, if they insist on scamming you, start talking to your local Chevy dealer. I've looked at both the new Malibu and the Saturn Aura, and while I may well be missing something, I'm hard pressed to see any significant difference between the two cars.
 
Best Regards,
Shipo

I too ran into this issue with my 07 Aura XR. The dealership in Savannah wanted to charge over $1,000 for dealer add-ons and would not negotiate at all. When I asked to speak to the Sales Manager, she confirmed and said that there wasn't a Saturn dealership within 200 miles that would budge on dealer add-ons.
So I went to Jacksonville, FL (about 120 miles from me) and bought a car from them without the dealer add-ons.
Bottom line - play hard ball and find another dealer if you have to. We shouldn't have to pay for something we don't want!

The dealer we bought our car from also had a hidden $400 dollar charge never mentioned.... for nitrogen filled tires plus paint and cloth protectant. My wife found a small piece of paper in the glove box with the extras listed at $400.
That was 2 days after paying cash and bringing the car home! She said no way and demanded a $400 refund check which we did receive. Before paying for the car I had the dealer install splash guards and an optional rear cargo net & a container of touch up paint at no cost.
