My Saturn SL2 is making an awful noise when I start it...?

Question:
When I turn the key it screaches like i'm holding don the key, but i'm not then when i try to turn it off it doesn't turn off it just makes this weird noise like the car is still running but not in a normal sounding way, like its going to die but doesnt. So i turn the ke like im turnig it off and on and finally it works smoothly, also when this happens it blows the ignition fuse. this happens only intermittently, not every time i start the car, so the mechanics think im crazy. I've had the starter replaced 3 times, the ignition switch replaced, and the serpentine belt replaced, but nothing is working now they want to replace my flywheel and say it will cost over a thousand dollars! HELP!

Answers:

My car (on or off) shifts into gear without using the clutch. Is the clutch gone or do i need hydraulic fluid?

Pep Boys would not know anything about this so dismiss whatever they told you. It sounded like a flywheel to me even before you said that.......and I assume Saturn told you that or it would only be about $300. There are also other problems with the car or you wouldn't be blowing fuses and a flywheel is not going to cause your car not to shut off. My advice sounds crazy, but cars that need work bring ALOT of money if you sell it on eBay as "minor work easy fix" in your title. I know, I have sold over 400 cars on eBay. When a car has problems that you can't figure out, it's always better to sell it like that because you will get plenty of money to go buy something else that isn't a problem for you. They will probably fix it quite easily and love the car, and you will have something better that isn't falling apart. GOOD LUCK!

Do you keep going to the same mechanics every time? Do you really believe them when they tell you they replaced the starter motor?

Well, you need to go to sears...go to the car department there and have them check out your car. Sometimes mechanics try to take advantage of women, I went to get a belt changed.... I took a look at it. It was an old belt they put on!! I went in and was like...listen, I know your used to women coming in here not knowing what to look for...but unfortunally for you I do. So replace my belt with a new one, at no cost to me!
They did. Take a guy with you to take it in. I am serious about this.
