Car Will Not Start by Jeterlosky

My boyfriends 2004 Chevy Aveo at 69,000 miles will not start. It did this about 6 months ago and it turned out it was the timing belt, which bent a valve I think. Eventually this cost around $700 because my brother worked on it for him. Now the car won't start again, the valves are moving, so it's not the same problem. There's spark going to the coil pack. Any suggestions?

2004 Chevy Aveo Rough Idle by pwinter16

My fiancee has a 2004 Aveo it has a rough idle and is showing three codes, P1781, P1701, and a P0700, the scanner shows severity unknown, I've had it in to be looked at and the shop that looked at it, said it was the vacuum hoses, so they took them off and cleaned and inspected them, and didn't find anything, when they put it back together it was running better, they said to replace the Idle air control valve, but that they couldn't get one in for it for 2 months, I just put it in over the weekend, and it didn't seem to make a difference, they also suggested the MAP sensor, which I can get from rockauto.com. I had an engine scan run on it by the chevy dealership, and they said it was clear, but the codes won't clear off of it, the car has 69,xxx miles on it, and this has been going on for 3 months, fortunately my grandfather is no longer able to drive and we borrowed his car for this whole time. Any help is appreciated, also one of the codes is shared with the transmission, and is not allowing the car to shift into 4th gear.

Unreported cause of engine stalling by burtonhwolfe

In a message dated August 6, 2008, I mistakenly blamed my Aveo for engine stalling. The problem was not the car, but rather my ignorance of what can happen if you allow a key to dangle in the ignition switch from a key case or key chain. The motion of its swinging will cut off the engine. That results from an overly sensitive ignition switch. You have to use an unsupported key or in any event a key that is not dangling in such a way as to let it swing - at least for the 2007 Aveo hatchback, which I bought new early in 2008. Maybe that does not happen with models from other years.

Have a 2005 aveo with a starting problem. YOu can hear the starter spinning but it is like the relay in not engaging to the flywheel to start the engine. Any suggestions.

i have an 04 aveo that started doing the same thing today. it was in drive in the driveway and just quit. i checked the timing belt and its fine. when you try to start it back the starter spins but something isnt engaging the crank. i cant figure it out. let me know what it turns out to be on yours. my serpentine belt turns when you engage the started but the crank doesnt turn over.

Mine ended up being the timing belt. If your timing belt is fine it might be the ECU.
Good Luck.
