1993 Chevrolet Cavalier RS review from North America
"Best bang for your buck"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Most recently the electrical has a short in it somewhere and is affecting the fuel sensor.
Starter - replaced three times since I have had the car.
Brakes - normal wear and tear
Tires - normal wear and tear
Catalytic converter two years ago
Muffler.
General comments?
I absolutely love this car. It has been reliable and trustworthy.
I have maintained the oil changes, tires and plugs and this car has treated me well.
Unfortunately my vehicle ran over a large deer that another vehicle just moment before had hit and since then I've developed a big oil leak.
This car still has original transmission, alternator, exhaust, radiator. The 3.1, 6 cylinder motor has given me plenty of spit for me to feel a little sporty. I would recommend the RS model to anyone.
I have put a lot of miles on this car, drove it hard and used it like a truck and it hasn't let me down. The best bang for my buck out of all the vehicles I have owned in my life.
