2000 Chevrolet Cavalier Z24 review from North America
"Quick car, good looks"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Windshield Wiper nozzle became plugged.
Idle "jumps" around now and then and the dealer blamed it on my performance muffler. I believe it's an O2 sensor problem. The problem is not enough to annoy me though.
Rotors warped at about 40000 and had them replaced at 55000 because they were bugging me so much.
General comments?
Great car, it is pretty fast for its performance mods. I have an AEM intake, customized with a cold air extension; and a Magnaflow muffler. Even with the automatic transmission I pull decent 1/4 mile times.
Great styling, since I've added the GM licensed Wing's West W-Type kit.
The car is great besides the quality issues (squeaks, rattles, paint, etc)...but hey, its good for a second car haha.
