Entire cooling system had to be replaced, passenger window motor, ac compressor, cat converter.
I have learned after the fact that the orange anti freeze (Dex Cool) required on this car is only meant to be mixed with distilled water, regular tap water added causes advanced corrosion.
There are many sites that talk of a class action lawsuit against GM, but I have yet to see it.
My Daughter bought this car on her own at 20 years old! I thought she had made a good decision after checking the car myself. It had low miles, good condition, one owner, great looks, and drives like a sports car.
Two weeks after the purchase it started loosing water.
And then the cooling system started breaking down, one component at a time. After replacing most of these parts myself and seeing the corrosion first hand, I searched the web for info on the antifreeze and found the culprit.
Thanks for that, I was going to buy the gt, but there's so many problems, I guess I'm not. Too bad, I liked itthoughtit'd be a great first car.
Back to the 1993 honda civic, I guess.
