Help! My car wont start on cold mornings. Once I try turning it over, I have to sit in it for 10 minutes and continue to try and start it. Eventually it starts 10 min later. I have taken it to the garage, no codes, battery or plug problems. I have tried dry gas as well, somtimes works.

If u didn't take it to a Saturn dealer then they were only probably able to check for engine codes and u probably have codes in ur body control module they have a buletine on the ignition switch causing the car not to start when cold it has the passlock sensor in it.it would set a code b3033 and or a b2960 the ingnition switch is the most likely cause check to see if u have those codes.let me know how it goes.
