1995 Chevrolet Monte Carlo Z34 review from North America
"Comfortable and pretty reliable car, but it shouldn't be called a Monte Carlo!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My transmission blew at 42,000 miles.
The alternator went at 60,000 miles and the battery shortly there after.
The motor let go at 92,000 miles.
General comments?
The car doesn't really live up to the Monte Carlo name as it's quick, but come on.
What good is it anyways if the transmission can't handle the power the engine throws to it?
With aluminum heads and an iron block leaking gaskets and a blown motor are just a couple heavy footed joy rides away!
