"Value for money"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Hardness in shifting gear from 1st to 2nd since I bought it. Daewoo India or the local dealer did not reply till date. Has any Matiz Owner come across this problem in the UK, or other than India?

All Matiz owners are experiencing this problem in India.

General comments?

My first car. Excellent in it's calls in India. Great small car. Visit www.Daewooindia.com/guestbook

Hi.

In general a problem like this can be fixed easily by tightening the clutch. You need to wind back up the clutch wire, not sure what its called, but it's a problem a lot of cars have, just ask someone who knows about cars, its fixed in two minutes, really!

I am writing to you from Nepal. I had similar problems with my Matiz ever since I changed my clutch wire on advice of my mechanic. Each time after the complaint, my mechanic adjusted the clutch wire or tightened it but I broke two clutch wires in three months. Then, my mechanic sought for genuine Daewoo clutch wire instead of using the one made by another Indian company for Matiz. I haven't have had the problem since then.

However, currently my Matiz is starting to make some cranky noise while turning my car even on moderate speed. My mechanic has advised me to change the front axle. I bought a Matiz 2007 model axle but didn't fit in the Matiz I purchased in 2001. Can anyone suggest?
