2002 Chevrolet Cavalier VLX review from North America
"A reliable drive with all the power and features I needed"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I hear a "whiny" sound comming from the engine when it is very cold, but this has happened very rarely. Once or twice over the past winter.
I believe this is a fan belt possibly.
This sound goes away after a minute or so of warming up the car.
General comments?
This car gets good gas mileage.
This car heats up quickly and can make ice cubes in minutes.
Remote entry and the keyless truck is a great feature.
This car is the perfect size for a midsize "Value Leader" car.
