1992 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme S 3.4 from North America

Faults:

Excessive oil consumption.

Engine dies while idling at intersections.

Eat up brake pads.

General Comments:

Had engine seals replaced under extended warrantee at 88000 miles, leak stopped for 12000 miles now worst than ever. Dealer wants over $1000 to fix the 1 seal that leaks where the distributor went into the block on older model engines.

1992 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme SL 3.4L 24v DOHC V6 from North America

Summary:

A wise choice!

Faults:

The only major problem was the timing. It went out a couple of months after I got the car, but they recommend it be fixed around every 70,000 miles. It was relatively expensive ($600), but I love the car too much to worry about the cost.

I also had a head gasket replaced, and a head resurfaced, but at my own will.

The front rotors were bad as well, but they were inexpensive and a quick fix.

General Comments:

The 3.4L engine's in the Cutlass Supremes scream! These cars are extremely fast, very reliable and get around in any weather condition. Of course, if you have a Cutlass, you'd understand why a long straight road, no other traffic and a nice sunny day is when these cars will treat you best!

I also have the leather seating and power seats in my Cutlass, making this car very comfortable for the long drives that you'll always want to take!

Can be expensive to maintain, and most of the time need a dealer to do the work, but it's well worth it. Once everything is right, it's like having your own personal jet!

1992 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme SL 3.4 DOHC from North America

Summary:

Expensive to maintain but luxurious and fast

Faults:

With the exception of the transmission, everything in this vehicle has either been replaced or rebuilt.

The engine had a lower end rebuild at 145,000 miles.

All struts and strut mounts had to be replaced.

The electrical system is a nightmare. The car is on its third alternator and fifth battery.

As mentioned before EVERYTHING has been replaced or rebuilt.

General Comments:

Very comfortable leather interior.

I like the stereo and climate controls on the steering wheel.

Great styling on this sports sedan.

Very high maintainance.

The 3.4 engine is very expensive to have serviced.

Very poor fuel economy (15 mpg)

I own a 1992 oldsmobile cutlass five speed. I don't think too many were produced. I had it serviced regularly and it is very much fun to drive--everything was going well until I hit about 48,000 miles. It actually still is fun to drive, but 1) very expensive to service, 2) electrical problems, 3) many headlights, cruise controls, and the radio works some of the time.

When I was a teenager I heard you should sell a car before it hit about 48,000 miles--self fullfiling prophecy I guess. Bottom line--I am spending $2,000 grand and am going to keep it--at this point, why not?

1992 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme SL 3.1 Liter from North America

Summary:

A tough looking, powerful, yet reliable ride all in one

Faults:

When I first got the car from the dealer, about 2 months of owning the car, the starter went out at 131,000 miles.

Currently, the driver side door window motor is out. In need of window motor.

General Comments:

I fell in love with the car once seeing it on the lot and had to get it.

The interior is in superb shape, the seats show no sign of wear and carpet is clean.

The engine is putting out great power for having high mileage.

The car rides nice and smooth.

The radio console is a far reach from the driver.

I love the look of the car and the four exhaust gives a nice look and sound.

The steering response is wonderful and I enjoy driving it.
