2000 Chevrolet Monte Carlo LS/SS review from North America
"Don't let looks be deceiving... trust me."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Haha! What hasn't?
* Needed new dash due to electrical issues.
* Had to have both half shafts replaced.
* Had to replace both rear struts.
* AC doesn't work, even with new compressor.
* Climate control speed only works on high (5).
* The overhead temp doesn't read the correct temp.
* About to need brakes and rotors.
Also, the motor gets so hot that it feels like it could melt plastic, but yet the temp guage says it's at its normal temp. Does anybody know why that is? Thanks.
General comments?
* I love it..
* It runs pretty good, but I think my 99 Monte Carlo was better than this one. I traded it for this car.
* It attracts a lot of peoples attention.
* I love the dual exhaust, it sounds sweet.
* Also has a good stereo system.
