1997 Oldsmobile Aurora review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Coil Pack failed.
Sending unit in tank failed.
Serpentine belt pulley bearing failed.
General comments?
This is a very comfortable car that is full-featured with options that you would really want. From the theater lighting to the "properly" designed seat belts this car is a delight to drive.
At 90 mph it is smooth for mile on end.
Under all conditions, with the V8, it still delivers a consistent 22mpg.
I am so glad GM designed a car just for me.
