The original daewootech forum

since I dump my daewoo lanos, It is no use to keep it anymore I spent some money on this tool, so I want to sell it and get some money back. Hopefully I will not be blamed. It is not the oem one, and if you want to use it, you have to remove alternator. I also have the service manual(2000 daewoo lan...

before you rebuild your cylinder head, make sure the crank is ok
if you find your head was hurt too much, maybe stop fixing is not too bad
or try to find another engine

I just cannot image why Daewoo use such a stupid plastic pulley on a fragile DOHC system
a iron pulley will not cost too much

it is nice to meet so many friends here.
thank you everyone .
it is time to say goodbye

today,my woo(2000 lanos) was broken on the skyline drive, middle of shenandoah national park, about 110 miles away from home. Such a beautiful place, I have to say. I have the whole set of tools in my back trunk, then I check it. Finally, I find the crank shaft axle was broken into pieces, the axle ...

today, I talked with a mechanic, and he gave me the idea that the timing may not right
actually, my timing is perfect, but I began to move my focuse on the timing system, finally, find out what's wrong.

I strip everything on the pulley, and tighten it, my car just runs perfectly.

First of all, I have to say sorry, My Woo This time, it is my fault. Actually, a month ago, the check engine light flashed for a while, the reason is the crank shaft pulley is not installed properly, which is my fault. and the reasult is the tooth on crank pulley puller was damaged. finally, it will...

I read the manual the job to pull the transmission off, is not a diy job, which can be done in the back yard. The biggest problem is to jack the car and support the transmission. I have to jack the car very high, and work under it for a long time. I also need some tool to support the transmission wh...

base on my research, looks like the previous owner did big job on the engine, even transmission -after market head gasket(timing failed before) -bad timing belt tensioner(did not have 42mm wrench and try to put belt back, the reason of timing failure again, belt does not have right tension, smash th...

Then, my car is haunted, or it doesn't want to serve me.
It is challanging my patient, finance and ability, again and again.
even my friends say "do you fix your car" instead of "hello".

I am in bad mood. It is my first car. more and more clues point to the torque converter, which I almost can not fix it in my back yard. I also hear the click comes from engine, sound like it is from the fuel injector, but I am not sure. I try my best to save it, but I guess it is the time to say goo...

I changed the transmission filter by my self yesterday evening you know what? the filter even broke !!!!!!! while the fluid looks kind of OK. I had never image that The best indication of the problem is to look at the transmission fluid.... does it smell "burnt" or have small black particles floatin...

The only thing I can say is :"IT IS REALLY A BAD CAR" the god should curse daewoo. I got it september last year , 2000 year daewoo lanos, only 38K mile at that time.Now, it only 50 k mile on the odometer I just assume a car will not have big problem before 60k mile. But this one only gave me endless...

Do I need any any special tools for the transmission job??
It is so heavy, arount 180 pounds,
probably I need something to move the transmission or remove the engine.

if it is TC
it means my car gone
It is not a diy job, and I can not affort the price to have it repair

2000 lanos 1.6 AT car can not accelerate, actually, it move, put when you push gas , it does not accelerate. I changed the transmission filter, it does not work. I disconnect the O2 sensor, it does not work I took off the EGR valve, it is ok, I think, and I disconnect the egr valve when the car is c...
