1996 Daewoo Cielo LX review from Korea
"Good value for my money at least"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
No serious problems so far. Regular preventive maintenance is done, oil changes are done every 3 months, transmission fluid changed once a year. No engine problems. Normal wear and tear on the brake pads and shoes.
*One problem, parts availability. I'm in Korea and can't find the plastic shift indicator: the long thin piece of clear plastic with the letters:
P R N D 1 2
If you have a source, I need to buy one please. The small light that lights up the shifter at night came loose and melted the shifter letters.
