2004 Chevrolet Nabira review from Malaysia
"Good car for its class"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brake pads worn out ~30000km.
Coin box is faulty now.
Engine timing was out 2 months after owing (rectified).
The horn pad on the steering wheel is bubbling up.
The middle air-cond grille paint came off.
General comments?
The brake pads have worn out???!!! Sent my car this morning for the 30K KM servicing was told that both the front and back brake pads need to change. Will cost us (ORIGINAL EQUIP: Front RM600+Back RM400, OEM: Front RM400+Back RM300)
I'm curios and baffled. This is like to early compared from my past experience in having to change my brake pads.
Does anyone knows what is the spec on the brake pads? Should it wear out on average at this distance?
This is a good car, it's just that I believe some of the parts are inferior. GOOD RESPONSIVE ENGINE, thought it is sounding a bit rough now.
About 2 months owing the car, the engine timing belt starts to give out noise. Was told that it is the normal complaint from buyers of Nabira. Problem was rectified.
