2004 Chevrolet Aveo base review from North America
"I love it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
AM side of the radio started buzzing, at 5,000 miles when stepping on the gas.
Air intake tube shattered at -55F on a long trip (my fault on that one).
PCV valve froze up, same trip, puking oil all over the engine.
General comments?
I love the 5 speed transmission.
However in extreme cold, the hydraulic clutch really acts up.
The interior is very roomy and simple.
I wish it had cruise control.
Grrreeeaaatt heater!
