The only place I have seen these (and only for Dodge Neons I think) is on EBay motors. The address is http://www.ebaymotors.com. Best of luck.

I would work closely with your dealership on this. They have an interest in keeping you as a client and should help you get what you want.
#374 of 2160 Very little heat & clicking by joe2001 Dec 12, 2000 (3:45 pm)
Have a 1990 3.1 cavalier RS. Lately I have found that their is little heat coming from the heater even though I have changed the thermostat. When I come to a stop the heater blows cool air instead of hot. When I start driving again it blows only warm air. Also have a clicking sound coming from a area close to the battery. When clicking starts I find that the Battery indicator in the card drops below half , lights dim, wipers slow, and fan drops low. Have changed battery, checked charging system and tuned up car. But has not solved problems. Any suggestions?

#376 of 2160 Just Purchased a 1998 Chevrolet Cavailer Base Coupe and I did not buy a Neon by brian1965 Dec 24, 2000 (8:10 am)
I just purchased a 1998 Cavalier 2 door 5 speed with AC , I like this car it has enough pep, good safety features , I did not buy a Neon though very peppy like all Chrysler products they lack quality . Chrysler's depreciate fast for example were I purchase my car here in Toronto Ontario Canada there is a 1999 300M I that is going of 24 000 candain you figure that new it was 40000 canadain that is a 16000 lost in just two years -neons goe for 21000 with taxes and in the first year they lose at least 7000 dollars. The Cavalier is a well made car and I paid 9888 for it with 53000 KMS , so stay away from a company that will fold very soon. So I will keep you posted on my little chevy.
#377 of 2160 99 Cav Transmission Problem by colemar Dec 27, 2000 (12:11 pm)
Hi. I, up until last week, have loved my 99 Cavalier... it is my first brand new car and I have taken great pains to keep it in good condition. Needless to say, last Friday (yes, three days before Christmas), my transmission gave out... that is to say the car would not go into gear in the middle of the city. I had it towed first to a transmission place wherein I was told that the whole transmission would likely need to be replaced. The mechanic also informed me that this sort of problem SHOULD NOT happen in a car that is a year and a half old. Now, herein lies my problem: my car, though only a year and a half old, has 37,500 miles on it, 1500 over warranty. Obviously, a new transmission in such a young car is indicative of a problem. The car is at the dealership being "diagnosed" now. My question for you all is this: has anyone else had a problem with the transmission in 99 Caves? I will be asking for cost assistance and am leaning towards asking for the whole thing to be covered. 1500 over warranty is bunk.... that's about a month of driving for me.   Any comparable stories, ideas comments? Thanks!!!!!

I would not worry about it. If you are only 1500 out of warranty chances are very good thqat they will either cover the whole thing or assist you with the cost so I wouldn't worry too much. I can honestly tell you that tranny issues for the Cavalier are very uncommon, they make great trannies and are very smooth but as with any mass produced item you have a chance of getting a bad one. Don't despair solutions will come and I'm sure they will treat you good ( car's only 1 year old afterall). Good luck!

Colemar, you didn't say what transmission you had - 3 sad auto, 4sp auto or 5 sad stick? You say that the car would not go into gear. Were you driving it or were you starting up? On the automatics there is mechanical interlock between the ignition key and the sifter. If the cable linkage between them should fail you might get the symptom you described. Always look for the simple things first and get a second opinion before you change the entire transmission.   As far as I know the Cavalier automatic has a very reliable transmission. I'm very happy with my 99 model.
#380 of 2160 Oops - sorry. by 7937 Dec 28, 2000 (6:40 pm)
Look what the spelling check did to my posting! Changed spd to sad! Sorry, that should read auto 3spd or 4spd and 5 spd stick shift. And sifter is supposed to be shifter. Seems like Edmunds new spelling check automatically corrects spelling now.
