1990 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme SL review from North America
"A well deserved car."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Previous owner didn't take very good care of her. She was low or empty on all fluids and didn't run well.
She had an oil leak, it was an easy fix didn't cost much at all.
The anti-lock brakes have been good, except I have previously got them done at Midas and they have been crap ever since.
Fuel injectors are going. That's going to be a pricey fix, but it'll be worth it.
I have just recently put a new radiator hose on her, it blew just 3 days ago. It only cost me $10 and easy for me to install.
I've had to put a new battery in her, but that's typical for me. I put a new battery in every car I've owned.
She had a bad paint job, I've since then painted her black. She was silver, I think she looks pretty now.
General comments?
Over all she's been a good car. Great on gas mileage.
She's always willing to go, and is hard to slow down some times.
She's been to Wisconsin and back to South Dakota 5 times for business trips and hasn't given me any trouble.
I would recommend this car to anyone looking for a fun and smooth ride.
Keep the fluids full and do the regular maintenance required and she will be a wonderful car for you!
