Why wont your manual 2002 Saturn shift out of 1st gear?
The first cause of the jump out from one to other gear is the loose shifter fork, which connects the shifting linkage and gears of the transmission. The second cause is loose shifting linkage itself, which connects the gear shifting knob and shifting fork. The shifting linkage and shifting fork become loose due to the rapid changing of gears from one gear to other at high speed of vehicle. The third cause is the misalignment of shifting linkage to the shifting fork.
Do you need to use the clutch when shifting a motorcycle?
In any vehicle which has a clutch ( instead of an automatic transmission), depressing the clutch, released the power train from the gear box, letting you shift gears without the power transfer mechanism ( whatever this is on a motorcycle or what not) supplying power. When you release the clutch the power mechanism is re-established with the new gear ratio in operation.
Why could'nt I get the shifter to unlock so you could put the car in drive 2001 Saturn?
I would suspect a neutral safety switch. This is a mechanism that prevents your car from being put into gear without your foot pressing down on the brake pedal. With the car running put your foot on the brake first, then try shifting into gear. It has to be done in that order or it wont go out of park. If you listen closely when you press on the brake "while in park" you may even be able to hear the single "click" sound in your shifter of the switch doing its work....if it's working. If you don't hear a click or feel a click in you shifting hand when you do this I would start there.

When I shift my car I have noticed a knocking noise. Do I need a tune up?
When shifting a manual (or standard) transmission on a vehicle, if you hear excessive knocking noises immediately after shifting, you are probably:1) Shifting into the next highest gear too soon, or2) Shifting into the wrong gear - for example, going from 2nd to 4th gear, or3) Not running the engine fast enough after shifting to the next highest gear, or4) Your engine is out of tune if you know you're doing steps 1,2 and 3 correctly
