I have a 2002 Saturn and it idles high around 2500 rpms all the time. I would like to know what is cuasing this and what I need to do to fix it. It doesn't shift hard when I put it into gear, other than that it runs great on the highway, thanks for your help.

Hi ortrevino, Welcome to 2carpros and TY for the donation

Clean out the idle air control valve and test the throttle position and report back with some results
