Has anyone ordered a 2009 Aveo 5 from a Chevy dealer. I had read somewhere that 5/1/08 was the effective date to order. |

Replying to: stans40 (Apr 23, 2008 12:37 pm) A restyled version of the hatchback with the sedans updated IP (instrument panel) was presented as the Chevrolet Aveo during the Frankfurt Motor Show 2007, to be marketed in Europe and North America. The Korean market received its own distinct restyle of the hatchback, the Gentra X. Later iterations, including the Kalos, Aveo, Barina and Gentra sedans, the Gentra X hatchback and the 2007 "Frankfurt Show" hatchbacks were styled in-house and with the assistance of PATAC -- and depart notably from the original Giugiaro exterior and interior styling designs. With launching Gentra X in South Korea, GMDAT had replaced engines of T250. 1.2L S-TEC II engine had updated with features such as double overhead camshaft(DOHC) and timing chain(older version has timing chain) system. 1.6L E-TEC II engine had replaced with ECOTEC(GEN-III) engine with new features such as variable valve timing mechanism. |

Anybody know if they put a low maintenance timing chain in the new engine rather than a high maintenance time belt? This is only thing that kept me from buying prior to the '09. Jerry |

| New here, may go for a 2010, does the 1.6 have a timing belt or chain also side molding looks good & protects ? | |

12 months trouble free motoring from my new Aveo but now it is a nightmare. Lights come on without warning when the car is unattended - all switches off. Doors unlock themselves overnight . Four times in the past 2 months the battery has completely lost its charge and has been replaced twice, as apparently the gel batteries only hold charge for about 4 months after having completely gone dead. The boot lock has been replaced - each time the car has been returned with an assurance that all is now working perfectly and there are no leaks. The road side assistance people says these gremlins are a common occurence and difficult to solve. Has any one out there had any similar problems with their Aveo? |
