Replying to: juanillo (Oct 06, 2009 9:34 pm) You can upgrade (put in a newer engine) but not downgrade (put in an older engine). Also you might have to go to a referee and/or get special registration.   Best to first discuss this with a smog specialist to see if the computer will automatically kick you out on the test, before you go to all this trouble.   Also (and I don't wish to be discouraging, just helpful), this will be a fair amount of work and probably you'd be much better off just buying a faster car.   My opinion is that for mods and speed equipment, working on a Japanese car is so much easier and gives you so many more options than a Daewoo.   Of course, if you have time + money + skill, you can put any engine in ANY car.

Replying to: twj815 (Oct 01, 2009 3:24 am) I think we got the problem solved. It turns out that the Chevy Aveo uses the same thermostat housing but it is made of metal. It cost a lot more but at least the glue won't separate because it's bolted together.
#1241 of 1250 2002 Lanos will not start unless the battery at 10 volts or less by christian11 Oct 28, 2009 (5:59 am)
Why would it do that and how can I repair the problem? Replies to this message: kiawah (Oct 28, 2009 11:24 am)

Replying to: christian11 (Oct 28, 2009 5:59 am) Start measuring some voltages, to see what is really going on at the starter connections.   Makes no sense that a starter would only start at a lower "too low" voltage.
#1243 of 1250 DAEWOO LANOS by nativequeen39 Oct 28, 2009 (12:25 pm)
I have a 2000 Daewoo Lanos my transmission went out. The guy that looked at says this car has a nonrepairable transmission. Is this true? If so where can I find a transmission for it. Are there any repair shops that sell them because I know the online Daewoo company will cost an arm and a leg? Replies to this message: Mr_Shiftright (Nov 06, 2009 9:17 am)
#1244 of 1250 refueling difficulty by idic28 Nov 06, 2009 (8:10 am)
When filling up my gas tank, the gasoline pump at the station keeps shutting off within a few seconds as if the tank is full. At times the gasoline spurts out forcefully. What could be causing this to happen. I need to know where and how I can obtain a repair manual. Thanks. EM

Replying to: nativequeen39 (Oct 28, 2009 12:25 pm) Not true. Find another mechanic. This is a GM transmission used in Sunfire, Cavalier, etc.   No such thing as a "nonrepairable" transmission. Well I suppose if it melted in a fire....
#1246 of 1250 Shifting-stalls by chad17 Nov 09, 2009 (8:05 am)
My 2000 Lanos is having problems shifting. I start the car and it idles fine. Then the moment I try and put it in drive the engine cuts out and dies. If I apply the gas sometimesw it sputters nd other times it goes like it should. Once I get out of first, it shifts fine. This is an automatic. Whats my problem, besides it's a Daewoo?

Replying to: chad17 (Nov 09, 2009 8:05 am) This doesn't sound like a transmission issue, but rather a driveability issue. If there are no codes stored (car should be scanned) best thing to do is look for vacuum leaks, and also clean the MAF sensor--two relatively simple DIY procedures.
