Can I use parts from a 2004 Saturn ION in my 1998 Saturn SL1?

I have a 1998 Saturn SL1 and having the transmission hesitate then jolting when put in reverse. My fan motor also went out, over heated, which cracked my radiator. Replaced radiator and fan motor. A friend has a 2004 Saturn ION (that she is junking) that has a good transmission & engine that she will give me if they are interchangeable plus window motors. Will either work in my car? Transmission doesn't always jolt or hesitate when I put in reverse. When it does I wait for a few seconds to a min. an I can feel it slip into gear. If it doesn't and I need to give it a little gas to backup then that is when jolts and it makes a loud noise. Also 2 rear windows wont open at all and 2 front windows open but won't close. I have to hit button then tug on glass and keep doing that to get them to close. Can I use parts from a 2004 ION in my car 1998 Saturn SL1?.

How do I replace the gasket and transmission oil in a 1998 Saturn SL1?

simply unbolt the trans pan under the trans and the oil falls to the ground... clean the pan with clean rag. get all old gasket off.. place new gasket in and bolt the pan back into place. tighten the bolts to around 7 lbs. do not over tighten the bolt, you could strip the threds. put new trans fluid in through the dip stick hole that you check the level.

2004 Saturn Ion transmission

It should be on the drivers side and it looks like the oil dipstick. Usually the top of the handle is shaped like a " T ". Most of the time it will be yellow and say trans on it. It may be lower than the oil dipstick. Good luck.

2004 Saturn Ion - No Reverse lights

The problem is most likely on the transmission range selector switch, this is on th top of the transmission and has a multi-wire connector going to it, a shaft goes through it and the trans shift cable is connected there.
