It might be an ignition coil arcing. That's part of what happened to mine, each cylinder has an individual coil, but they are all connected into 1 piece so you have to replace all 4 in one go. Mine was seriously running like shit. Runs great now though after a ton of parts.

hmmm.. a bad dealership experience sounds about right with the aveo. Most of the techs the can swindle every cent out of fixing the overly common v8 in the escalade don't know a damn thing about fixing the daewoo.

I think its partially because of the reliability of these cars.

Also partially because of the diagnosing instructions from Chevrolet.


Combine a reliable car with half-assed diagnostic and troubleshooting instructions and you've got a recipe for shotgunning parts at a car, praying for a fix.

Hey guys. it's been a long time sice I've been on here. I've benn bissy with my G-ma passing away, my brother getting marred and taking care of G-pa.

Now up date on my Aveo!!! :D
I crashed it again.... :(
NJ woman drivers suck!!!!
So I got it fixed and the collision place mached the crome(grill and side vents) and the fromt chevy to the body coler. It looks somuch better now.

Also I painted the head liner black. This weekend I'm going to paint the pillers black.
This wasn't that hard. You just need to unbolt every thing off the roof(for the light you have to take the clear cover off and there is a screw. alittel pull and every thing comes out.) For the pillers the front and xenter ones you just need to loss it up. No need to take it off. The back was a pain... You had to unbolt the peace that the speaker is bolt on. the rear piller dosen't only have clips but a push in(like the one in the head liner) The piller slise up in to it. I tryed my best to slide it out but ended up pulling it out. You realy have to pull on this peace or it won't come out. and just slide the head liner out the back. I used vinal spray from aoutozone. it came out pretty good.
I forgot to take pics so I only have the finished product. I'll post pics when I paint the piller.

I changed the center consol to black too.
I just pullrd it off starting from the front(keep your E-brake up and it will make it easyer.) The Plastic was black and they painted it silver so I got a scruff pad and water and scrubed it till the paint came off. I cleaned with mothers plastic proteter(?) and it haves a nice shine to it. I liked it in flata black but now I have to wait till this stuffe comes off.

I for got to add that the rubber on the center cosol comes off very easy. The rubber is black and I was layzy so I didn't take the paint off under it.

It looks hard but it realy wasn't that bad at all. I think doing the black housing head light was harder lol
