Weak places Chevrolet Aveo T250. Car "Aveo T250" (Chevrolet Aveo T250): review, specifications, prices Price and completerate

Chevrolet Aveo cars became popular, thanks to reliability and modern design.

For 13 years of release, the Korean branch of the manufacturer General Motors managed to sell hundreds of thousands of cars, and the reviews of the owners confirm the high quality of assembly and small expenses in the service process.

According to car enthusiasts, the correct care and regularly guarantee 250-300 thousand mileage without overhaulthat for the Korean manufacturer is considered an excellent option.

What are the features of the operation of the car? What kind weak spots take place in models T250 and T300? As evidenced by reviews real owners? About all this you will learn further.

Operating experience

To understand the peculiarities of the car, it is worth considering each of its components separately.

Engine.

Initially on Chevrolet cars Aveo, the manufacturer put two types of motor - at 1.2 and 1.4 liters.

A distinctive feature of both force aggregates is the presence of belt drive timing.

Another nuance is the presence of an identical crank-connecting group. The main difference is only among the valves per cylinder.

A 1.2 liter motor is equipped with a smaller distribution and eight valves. That engine that is more powerful (by 1.4 liters), equipped with two camshafts and 16 valves.

Practice has shown that the oil change interval (15 thousand kilometers) is overestimated, therefore, in motors 1.2 liters, excessive wear of the camshaft is observed.

Such problems show ourselves after 60-100,000 mileage. A malfunction often leads to a junction of the device and the need to replace the cylinder head.

The first symptoms of breakage - the appearance of "Casting" as in diesel engines. The reason is the lack of oil in some nodes of the motor.

To solve the problem, you will have to change the camshaft in the complex with rockers, dismantle the GBC, clean and drill a loaf, ensuring it a larger size.

In order to avoid the problem described, the lubrication replacement interval in the motor should be reduced to 10 thousand kilometers.

After 80-120 thousand mileage, the risk of the wedge of the ventilation valve of crankcase gases is the cause of extrusion of the lubricating composition from the motor along with the oil dipstick.

After 120-140,000, be prepared to change the front seal of the crankshaft due to oil skipping.

In motors of 1.4 liters after a large run, a nagar is formed on the inlet valves, which leads to "Troja", but since 2008, developers managed to eradicate this problem. In a period from 80 to 110 thousand kilometers, the appearance of oil leaks.

On a car with automatic gas-controlling of phases and in motors with a chain drive after 30-60 thousand km, an uncharacteristic "rokot" after the plant of the power site, as well as the appearance of a "diesel base" after a set of temperature occurs.

Such a problem often speaks about the breakdown of the camshaft gear. If you do not notice the problem in a timely manner, then the risk of extruding the oscilves of the distribution mechanism, the decrease in the oil level and spraying the timing belt is high.

The result is often deplorable - stripping belt and valve deformation.

After 50-100 thousand runs, as a rule, changes released Bearing, and after 120-150,000 - clutch.

Practice of operation showed that Chevrolet Aveo with volume power aggregate In 1.5 liters are distinguished by the stability of work on liquefied gas ().

Transmission.

After 80-130 thousand km, due to the reduction of the elasticity of seals, oils from the checkpoint are possible. Here, the task of the car enthusiast is to notice the drop in the oil level. Otherwise, the risk of rapid wear of the neutral and 5th gear gear is high.

The emergence of an uncharacteristic "crunch" at the time of inclusion of the 5th speed just indicates a shortage of oil in the checkpoint.

In terms of frequent trips around the city, the transmission is flashed after 60-90 thousand runs, which is expressed in not enough to turn on speeds.

If you compare two automatic transmission boxes and "mechanics", then the first is more reliable, but after 40-100 thousand mileage, the risk of deterioration of the contact compound by the control solenoid switch is high.

The result is a problem with choosing a speed in the position of the Parking selector handle (P). To avoid difficulties, it requires periodic cleaning of contacts.

Chevrolet Aveo cooling system.

Operating experience has shown that in the range of 60-90 thousand runs arise difficulties with the warming of the power site due to the thermostat malfunction.

There is a risk of leaking or early opening of the valve for a larger circle that does not allow the power unit to warm up normally in the frost.

Due to the blurred valves after 50-80 thousand mileage, another unpleasant symptom occurs - "subference" of the lid of the expansion tank.

In the same range, problems with the "sticking" the brushes of the fan motor in the cooling system, as well as the oxidation of contact connections in the plug, are often manifested.

On Chevrolet Aveo 2003-2007, the fan body is located in close proximity to the radiator, which often causes the abridgement of the right-long part of the node after 50-70 thousand km.

To troubleshoot the problem, it is enough to perform two simple manipulations - to cut the edges of the case and put the washers at the fan point points.

In the period of 80-100 thousand km, it is possible to light the engine error lamps (manifests itself on the background of the flow of the power unit). Problems in work are often due to the failure or contamination of the filter grids in the fuel system.

One of the weak places of the car is a suspension, which anniversary by car enthusiasts of an outsider "bubbing" in the front.

To reduce the negative factor, it is enough to put more powerful supports on the front racks.

New supports are taped 70-90 thousand runs, and the front bearings of the hub (80-100).

Silent blocks on the back lever "rent" and creak already in 60-70 thousand, while in front of the larger time without replacing.

As for the silent blocks on the back of the beam, then the resource varies here in the tails of 90-140 thousand mileage. Symptoms of the problem - loss of stability, extraneous symptops and noises.

The blocks of the brake system on the front wheels should be replaced after 40-50 thousand, and the brake discs - after 70-100.

Steering.

After 50-80 thousand km, it may fail to extend the sleeve of a gear shaft, which leads to the appearance of knocks in the steering rail.

After 90-100,000 there is a risk of leakage in the steering shaft of the upper share of the steering system. The main sign is the oil under the carpet at the driver.

In addition, in severe frosts, the pump Gur sometimes buzzes, which is eliminated by replacing the old lubricating composition.

Electric part Chevrolet Aveo.

As for the electrician, there are no big problems here. The main attention should be paid to the generator, in which after 70-120 thousand km is required to install new bearings.

Also in the range of 70-80 thousand km there is a breakdown of headlights corrector due to oxidation on the "minus" of the conductor and the burden of the diode in the clock scheme.

Body part and Salon Chevrolet Aveo.

As for the body, there are no problems here. The only thing on the early models is possible damage to the rear arches of the wheel.

The problem is eliminated by mounting the mudguards in front, having a greater width.

Salon's problems - the appearance of a large number of sources of the screens (especially in the front panel area).

The main reason is the low quality of noise insulation in this place and bad roads.

Sometimes fasten and other nodes of the car - seat belts lock on rear seat. After 50-60 thousand runs, the woofer of the salon blowing fan is possible.

Separate attention deserves the air conditioning system of Chevrolet Aveo - the level of Freon should be controlled.

Weak places Chevrolet Aveo T 250

Chevrolet Aveo T 250 - model, the release of which started in 2006. The main differences from the older version of T 200 are modern design and attractiveness.

As for the technical "filling", it remained unchanged. The pretty design and reliability of the car did their job - it became popular with car enthusiasts.

Weak places of model T 250 are described in detail in the "Operating Experience" section.

Below will consider the most important aspects.

Body Chevrolet Aveo.

It has greater corrosion resistance. But for best protection It is necessary to carry out additional processing of the anti-corrosion composition and try to protect the car from damage.

The main minus is the ease of deformation even with a slight pressure. Another drawback is "sweating" headlights.

Chevrolet Aveo Salon.

It was already, so the three passengers are not so comfortable from behind. In this case, the driver will touch the passenger's elbow on the side.

A lot of complaints to a bright salon, which makes the car more expressive, but at the same time it has an excessive groin.

Isolation and visibility are far from ideal.

Motor Chevrolet Aveo T 250.

It can serve 400-500 thousand kilometers. With long-term operation, the valve flack, thermostat failure, the tightness loss of the front of the camshaft and gaskets of the valve cover are possible.

Transmission and chassis.

It has the following minuses - the "grenade" crunch and deterioration of the sealance of the sealance.

As for the machine, it is a weak place in it - a parking solenoid, because of which there may be problems with a launch of cars.

The running T250 on "excellent" copes with potholes, but the softness of the shock absorbers can cause the appearance of rolls when maneuver.

Weak places Chevrolet Aveo T 300

The T300 model came to a shift of an equally well-known model T250. For buyers in Russia, the new Chevrolet Aveo is equipped with a 1.6 liter engine. Assembly since 2012 was carried out at the Gorky Automobile Plant.

Weak points T300 are almost no different from those that the predecessor was. The largest problems arise with the chassis system, the power node and the interior.

They should be considered in more detail.

Engine.

The following problems are characterized here:

• droplets in the valve gasket;
• the appearance of problems with pressure sensor;
• excessive fuel consumption;
• increased risk of leaks from Hose Hose;
• the high risk of problems with the oil pressure sensor.

The experience of operating Chevrolet Aveo showed that fuel consumption remained unchanged (that is, high).

Even the installation of more advanced power units from Opel did not help. Thus, the average gasoline consumption on motors 1.6 liters with MCPP is 10-11 liters on the "Hundred".

If the Automatic is installed on the car, then "voraciousness" and is higher.

The line of motors is characterized by sufficient reliability, but the appearance of vibrations due to failures in the operation of the oxygen sensor is possible. After 30 thousand runs, the risk of extruding the oil from valve cover. After 10-15 thousand km, the leaps of the PC tube are possible. In the first cold there is a risk of problems with the ignition module.

Chassis.

If we give weak places sound system T300, then it is worth highlighting:

• a small resource of stabilizer racks;
• weak racks on the rear axle;
• necessity frequent replacement Bearings hub.

The feature of the T300 suspension is a small ground clearance, increase which is actually by setting the wheels with a large diameter.

At the same time, it is worth noting a greater rigidity of the running and the minimum course of the shock absorbers on the back. Such a feature is plus to manageability, but minus - to comfort.

For this reason, the stabilizers quickly fail, it is possible to quickly appear the "Linkov" stuffs.

It often does not withstand load hub bearing. The rear racks are weak, because they require replacement after 40-50 thousand mileage.

T300 gearbox.

As for the PPC, here users say quick wear synchronizers 1 and 2nd speeds heavy conditions operation.

The appearance of problems is possible after 20,000. As for the "automaton", there are almost no complaints here.

There is also a number of comments on the salon, which is worth mentioning:

• insufficient noise insulation;
• appearance over the years of crickets and squeaks;
• plastic scratching.

All other features of T300 (including design) do not cause complaints and are at a high level.

Cooling system.

As for the cooling of the power site, here the owners already after 30-60 thousand runs will have to face a thermostat malfunction.

Either it fails, or the temperature sensor is broken, mounted in the casing of the said device.

Electrical part.

Rarely, but sometimes after 40 thousand kilometers there is a burnout of seats heating wiring.

Approximately in the same place is possible problems with wiring that feeds the heated mirrors.

The T300 brake system is reliable, but one big problem is still available - the appearance of the brake calipers.

It so happened that the guide plants have a smaller circumference, which leads to the appearance of noise.

The elimination of the problem is the installation of the fixing brackets. At the same time, guides and brackets, as a rule, are in a common set.

Plus and that official dealer Eliminates this problem for free (under warranty).

The body part and its coating does not cause complaints. The car passes a large kilometer without obvious damage, resistant to the appearance of rust.

But the weak point is still there - the lid of the luggage compartment, which is broken down due to road traffic, and the sealing gums fail.

The interim total according to the T300 model is quite optimistic. The car has weaknesses and most of Problems came from the predecessor.

The minus is that they showed themselves and new troubles that "get out" with the active operation of the machine.

For this reason, it is necessary to regularly monitor the car and go through. At the same time, in general, we can safely say that the car is worth the money spent.

The final part of the celebration of the centenary anniversary of Chevrolet has become both the buddic itself, and the most interesting from a practical point of view. We had to experience two hatchback at once, who will soon come out on russian market. And both promise to become massive. Speech about New Aveo and five-door Cruze.

Less, yes better. Chevrolet Aveo.

Europeans often choose Aveo as the second city car, and the limited number of doors does not frighten them. Much more important style and appearance.

Child globalization Chevrolet Aveo. It is sold so worry that, in addition to the already produced sedan and five-door hatchback, I demanded another modification - three-door.

According to Ilf and Petrov - statistics know everything. She knows everything about Chevrolet. For example, that this brand after the purchase of Daewoo has become one of the most rapidly developing as in Europe. (Growth over the past year + 34%) and in Russia (growth + 53%). Or what cars chevrolet brands Sold last year. Low less than managed to implement all other branches of the GM concern. Thestatistry reports to us and another important thing - Chevrolet on sales for 2007 went out in our country in the country at first and ahead of his eternal competitors - Ford, Toyota and Mitsubishi. True, in the segment in (to which about 45% of cars include about 45% of cars) Aveo performs on second roles - over the past year more than 26,000 copies were sold, which provided it only 11th place in the class. It is possible, some decline for Aveo was quite Explain the tightened update of the hatchbacks. But at the beginning of the year there was a restyling five-year. Now it came to the turn and three-door modification - for the first time in the history of the model. In Europe, where Aveo is almost a third of Chevrolet sales, the appearance of three hours is an event. Europeans often choose Aveo as the second city car, and the limited number of doors does not frighten them. Much more important style and appearance. And it looks up to the updated version very well - it was removed as much as possible from his progenitor Daewoo Kalos and acquired an appearance with which Aveo easily rises in one row with 100% European classmates.

Get acquainted with the hatchbacks Chevrolet Aveo and Chevrolet Cruze

Showing you two poles of the Chevrolet - Volt and Camaro brand, - we must stay somewhere in the middle. Because about both of these cars in Europe will speak more than ride them. They are image projects on which General Motors is not going to make a lot in the old world. It is planned to sell about 15 thousand VOLT / AMPERA hybrids. And with respect to Camaro plans are more modest. Kassu in Europe will do others - new Aveo and Cruze with five-door bodies.

True, among the votes of test Aveo, the gasoline rustling of the actual motors 1.2 (69 or 86 hp) or 1.4 (100 hp) is not heard (69 or 86 hp). Circle solid diesel engines - Europe! I start with a 95-strong machine in ECO, equipped with Turbodiesel 1.3, START / STOP system and five-speed "mechanics". In the cabin you can hang at the form of dashboard. A large rectangular display is docked to a major tachometer. However, the data blocks are located logical, quite far from each other and are drawn clearly. Information is read instantly.

The length of the five-year AVEO is 4039 mm, width - 1735, height - 1517, base - 2525 mm. Chevrolet larger Fiesta and Fabia.

The Chevrolet Aveo T250 car began to produce in 2006. He came to replace the T200 model and received a more modern body. Equipment as a whole remains the same, however, specifications Improved. A pretty design, especially compared to the last version, was impressed, and the new Aveo quickly won the wide audience of buyers. He became one of the favorites on the market and to this day is well for sale. For ten years, the car has managed to show himself, so we and you have the opportunity to consider it from a practical point of view, based on the experience of the owners.

general characteristics

Aveo T250 is made in three versions. The most popular one is a 5-door sedan. There is also hatchback, with the presence of three and five doors. The model is collected in China, Korea, Poland and Ukraine. Chinese cars collected in the GM branch obtained the highest marks from the owners. Models chinese assembly They differ primarily with a 1.6-liter motor and a good complete set. Among the secondary differences, it is possible to note the radiator grille painted in the body color, and chrome-plated decorative bar between rear headlights, as well as wood elements in the cabin. Chinese versions are executed using the sedan body type.

Body

Compared to the past version of Chevrolet Aveo T250, has a more resistant corrosion of the body. However, anti-corrosion treatment is very relevant, as in any other budget car. Unfortunately, the metal from which the body is made very soft. Just pushing the car can be left to her dent. As for the optics, it is not tightly sealed on some machines, as a result - headlights. Basically, this end the weaknesses of Aveo T250 sedan. Aveo T200 had a serious disadvantage - weak welding seam mounting shelves between the rear racks. In the second generation, this flawed corrected.

Salon

The interior of Aveo T250 looks like an older brother, but has a lot of useful improvements. The Chinese version has a beige finish, and everyone else is dark gray. Light finish looks more expressive, but it is very impractical and needs extremely neat handling. The salon is trimmed with hard, but not creaky plastic. Because of the wide side racks on turns, there are not enough visibility. Noise insulation of the body is frankly weak. In the rear row, passengers can be quite comfortable to accommodate, however, threesome will be closely. Compared with the closest competitor - Daewoo Lanos, the interior "Aveo T250" is already, and the backs of the seats of the rear row are more vertical. But landing on the seats is slightly higher. Luggage compartment It has a volume of 320 liters, which is not enough compared to competitors.

Engine

All models of Chevrolet Aveo T250 are equipped with gasoline engines. The most common one is a 1.5-liter, 8-valve unit, which has proven itself well in the past generation of cars. With competent operation, it can be used without overhaul up to 500 thousand km. However, it happens that after 200 thousand runs of the rocker exit from their working position due to wear of the hydrocomathers. Therefore, when the valve knocks, it is necessary to check the hydrokompensators and, if necessary, replace them. On the car, those who like to ride in high speed, over time, can lose the tightness of the gasket and the camshaft seal.

The Chinese motor with a volume of 1.6 liters may have both inline and V-shaped cylinders. His main dignity is more high power With almost the same appetite, like a 1,5-liter engine. This motor also did not identify any serious "diseases", so it can be bold to buy it. There is only one characteristic problem - leak valve cover.

The timing belt is both engines to change every 6 thousand kilometers together with the rollers. But the pump, which is activated by this very belt, serves two times more.

The machine has a rather solid appetite - about 10 liters per 100 km of way, so many owners install HBO on it. As practice shows, motors working with gas installations are not worse than gasoline. Tuning "Aveo T250" makes it possible to improve the characteristics of the motor, but usually do not resort to it.

Transmission

The lion's share of these models is equipped with a 5-speed mechanic. Machines with a 4-speed automatic machine will be rotated no more than 20%. Both boxes suffer from the weak tightness of the glands of the semi-axes and the crunch of outdoor grenades. Therefore, sometimes these elements have to change. Otherwise, both gearbox is quite reliable. Several problems that were characteristic of the last version of the car, the manufacturer eliminated successfully. The clutch has a hydraulic drive, which deserved only one remark - the noise of the release bearing.

Suspension

The chassis has a high energy intensity, and copes well with the defects of our roads. However, with a sharp maneuvering, the body is tangible. Therefore, the machine is more suitable for measured ride.

The design of the suspension "Aveo T250" is similar to the previous version - an independent McPherson ahead and a semi-dependent beam behind. The suspension is well adapted to our realities and serves quite a long time. They can serve as a distance of up to 50 thousand km, but the silent blocks of the front levers, ball supports and usually maintain mileage up to 100 thousand km.

Steering and brake system

The steering wheel "Aveo T250" is equipped with a hydraulic agent. This node is sometimes susceptible to the flow of the steering shaft. Even less often is the wear of the GUR, which is manifested by a characteristic knock. Steering tips serve 60-80 thousand km, and traction and at all up to 100 thousand. The brake system works without complaints, however, sometimes fail.

Conclusion

The status of one of the sales leaders in the post-Soviet market of budget cars This car received quite well deserved. Aveo combines an acceptable cost, reliability, fitness to our roads and inexpensive service. The car is well suited for any audience of budget buyers. She is moderately modern, and it looks more profitable for some competitors. Easy tuning "Aveo T250" will allow you to make a car even more interesting and for several years to forget about the desire to change the car.

In 2012, the release of Chevrolet Aveo T250 was discontinued. The price of the car on the secondary market today ranges from 5 thousand dollars. But on this history of the car does not end because of 2012, it is produced in Ukraine under the name except the name, nothing has changed in the car. The new "kind" costs about 12 thousand dollars.

Eta, famous in the past, the car has a dozen names, but it is more famous as Chevrolet Aveo. If it were not for the "Aushka", then not to see us of such success in the sedans in ++ class, if not "Away", then I would not see the replacement of the brave to Colik Nexia, and finally, if not, if not , what would be proudly cut by young and poor girls in the province?

However, "Avetoras" is enough among men. What is good this car? Today we will talk about the body, the cabin, electrician and pendants, and a little later - about motors and transmissions. Maybe then we will understand than this car is good.

History of technology

The amazing combination of appearance, practicality and lowest prices from restyled models not only allowed to break through the sales leaders in the classroom, but also showed all competitors that the elongated sedan on the basis of a small hatchback has every chance of market success. And therefore Polo Sedan, Hyundai Solaris, Kia Rio and others went on a launched aveo track, with amazing accuracy repeating the proportion of the predecessor. Well, the Chevrolet of Asian origin migrated to Ukraine under the name ZAZ of the species, and then in Uzbekistan, first as a new Daewoo, and then Ravon Nexia. And despite the old-standing age of the structure, it can still be purchased new, even with another set of power units.

The secret of success is quite simple. Actually, as the design of the masterpiece. In 2002, Daewoo Kalos saw in Korea. So unreactive for our ear, the name of many where I had to do not go to the yard, so that in most markets the car has become known as Aveo.

But the concept of developing the studio ItalDesign, which appeared in 2000, was called Kalos Dream, in a free translation from Greek-English - "Beautiful Dream". The car was sold under different brands in the USA, and in Europe, and, of course, in Asia and Australia. Just watch a list of names under which it knew all over the world: Chevrolet Kalos, Chevrolet Lova, Chevrolet Nexia, Daewoo Gentra, Daewoo Kalos, Holden Barina (TK), Pontiac G 3, Pontiac G 3 Wave, Pontiac Wave, Ravon Nexia R 3 , Suzuki SWIFT +, ZAZ Vida.. Do not be surprised by the presence in the list name of Gentra: at first it was followed by the youngest model, and until 2011 this car was so called in the inner Uzbek market.

The main term of success was the simplicity and low cost of Aveo, and the second is compatibility with platforms and GM / Opel units. And the third, most important thing, it was the design of the car. Not that before that no one did simple carswell adapted for sales in any regions and with a wide range of units, but so that the small sedan looks in proportion and at the same time it has been sufficiently convenient inside ... This has never happened before. A slight increase in height and length in comparison with the predecessor, Daewoo Lanos, made it possible to make a high-quality jump.

In the photo: Chevrolet Aveo Sedan (T200) "2003-06

Such. simple car perfectly suitable for localization. Aveo was produced in Poland, in Russia and even in Ukraine, at the ZAZ plant it was put on the conveyor under the name Vida. In Uzbekistan, the masterpiece of world budget automotors met, of course, the warmest reception. The baby was well met in China, and in Canada (under the Pontiac brand), and in the USA. In the States, she also was sold well, but already as "True Chevrolet, a car of real Americans." Moreover, it was the smallest GM car in the United States, and it competed mainly with Fiesta, Fit and Yaris, receiving not the highest ratings, but, nevertheless, at a price of 11 thousand dollars it was purchased by eagerly.

You will not find design sizes here. Everything is simple: Front McPherson, behind a twisted beam. Motors and boxes - Opolevsko-Holdenovsky design, compatible with many other GM models, simple thin steel body, painted in bright colors. A simple and pretty spacious interior and to pain acquaintance with all owners of GM Magnitol machines after restyling. There are no technical breakthroughs here, everything is done as in dozens of other machines of the corporation, and in the cheapest version.

Safety quality satisfactory, satisfactory comfort, the price of operation is satisfactory ... The configuration is poor and very poor. Of course, they did not buy the car because she was better classmates, but because she had no competition-competitors, and the sedan in many regions is still considered a more convenient option than the hatchback. Someone bought and hatchbacks, but I am more difficult to motivate for such a purchase.

Buyers immediately knew that the car did not have a very reliable suspension, motors to restyling with a bunch of small and not very problems, gearboxes go long, but they still did not refuse to buy. As the car feel now, and what is interesting with them happens - read below.

Body

The skeptical relationship of most fans of more expensive cars to the quality of Korean assembly is easy to explode when the ten-year-old car is inspected. Point corrosion traces are often found, especially at the bottom of the doors and in the rear arches, less often on the surfaces of body elements and the edge of the hood, but most machines after restyling damage are cosmetic. This is despite the fact that the outer body elements are made of surprisingly thin steel, and the power elements of the stock of the strength do not have. The same threshold amplifiers may not withstand the installation on the "non-" jack, and the racks of the roof can be remembered, just hitting the hand.

Machines until restyling usually have the worst appearance and significantly fading paintwork. But the main problems with corrosion almost the same: rear wheel arches And thresholds, even in a somewhat more started form.

More serious corrosion damage are found. Yet, thin metal is more demanding of care, and they did not bother especially these cars. But considering prices and age, the result can be considered acceptable, wherever more dear cars At a similar age, often sin more serious problems.

Inspection when buying, of course, is required. The bottom and thresholds need to be carefully checked for damage and concomitant corrosion, check whether the drainage drainages of the cabin, trunk work and the superimpose niches. We especially carefully treat the drinke of the trunk, it has a bad seal from above, and the water falls into it regularly. Not all owners bother the refinement of the seals of the cover and lamps, and the water needs to be merged somewhere.

Do not be lazy to climb a flashlight into the fuel tank zone, mud can accumulate there. And where is the wet dirt, there is corrosion. From the inside of the salon, this zone is also worth viewing carefully.

The same pockets for dirt are on the junction of the engine shield and front wing, Behind them should also be carefully traced and cleaned if necessary. Be sure to explore the zones of fastening the suspension elements: weak metal body can crack on the supporting cups and at the point of fastening the beam rear suspension lovers of primer.

In general, the machine is not very designed for the countryside, the suspension this fact demonstrates even more clearly. But I repeat: surprisingly a good quality assembly and painting allows you to hope for a decent body condition. If traces of the influence of "sandblasting" are revealed, but there are no corrosion, as often happens on the edge of the hood, on the thresholds behind the front wheels and in the rear arches, then I recommend not to postpone the case in a long box, but to do painting immediately. With damaged LCP, the body does not live for a long time.

Separate attention is required by the car Kaliningrad assembly. They should check the condition of the welds of the sidebar and the rear shelf on the sedans. If a metallic grinding is present during the movement, then open and be checked. Treatment is inexpensive, but, as practice shows, the problem is progressing and contributes to the destruction of the sutures of the rear head rack. Corrosion on the roof in the middle part, crawling "from under" windshield, may well be a manifestation of another funny factory problem - poor roof color and condensate accumulation in the prescription space due to insufficient ventilation. Rusty floors on the ceiling clearly suggest that the process is running. If corrosion has already got out of the glass, you will have to deal with a serious repair of the roof panel and the front amplifier.

Famram I. lobby glass bad luck. Sweetheartery lights do not shine at all, and on cars after 2005 with the body of the sedan they shine, but not long. The quality of the manufacture of optics leaves much to be desired. The reflector flashes, the glass is rubbed, and the mechanics itself the headlights over time it is smashed, the correctors stop working and the light begins to tremble. Fog lights Burn around with the slightest signs of moisture on the glass.

The windshield is surprisingly mild, prone and gripping and to the formation of cracks. And on the hatchbacks take care of the glass back, break it, it is inactively shuting the back door, not just, but very simple.

Plastic body parts durability do not differ, easily lose fastenings at easy blows, especially in winterThe paint on them holds badly. But on the other hand, and to break them very hard, thin plastic is plastic enough at any temperature.

Much more unpleasant for most owners that door seals quickly lose their elasticity, and the driver is also dissolved at the bottom. And so not a very quiet car begins to sound wind noise.

Doors here - generally an element of "highlaithing". On cars S. big mileage Begin to seize the loop, but the door limiters break literally after several years of operation. Locks and their microswit system are also not distinguished by the reliability. Yes, the locks of the locks are knocking ... knocking trunk lid on sedans and backdoor On hatchbacks - also a typical thing. Many owners change the opening seals, plant the lanterns sealant and are engaged in the like "improving", but practice shows that it does not always help. The main thing is to keep the drainage in the rear of the machine and processed the anti-corrosion compositions of the spare wheel niche.

The car's salon is distinguished by an amazing for class by a scope and a good design, but in the rest of the way it is impossible to say anything good. Seat amorphous, prone to breakdowns of adjustment mechanism under heavy drivers. Plastic panels are embroidered and wrapped on all the frets, the climate control is not very effective, and even the fan already when runs for a hundred begins to push, or even gets up. Most often helps banal cleaning collector and replacing brushes, but the bearings are also not eternal.

The clarity of the work of the IPAM lever leaves much to be desired, the scenes quickly wear out, and the cables also serve not long. Nothing globally will break here, and the Salon itself in a reasonable owner looks equally at 50 thousand mileage and at 200, but in any case it does not look very good: it affects both the quality of materials and the assembly.

What can break "self"? Yes, anything, even the ignition castle in the risk zone, not to mention the latches of the glove box, visors and buttons. But everything is relatively inexpensive and it changes easily.

On machines with air conditioning, the trouble is a bit more, the system is prone to leaks due to bad seals and not particularly successful gasket tubes.

Electrician and electronics

Easy has its advantages. Electric problems Chevrolet Aveo rarely appear and are solved most often easily and inexpensively.

The resource of the generator and motor climate is insufficient, but they are maintained, and their replacement is inexpensive. Magnitols do not differ in quality, the cd drive laser is polluted and "floats" sound, but such multimedia systems They put on most GM machines, and it is hardly possible to consider claims precisely to Aveo.

Here is the fact that the radiator fan breaks the blade, and its motor will burn out due to contact with the blades with a radiator - this is a significant miscalculation in the mechanics of the radiator's casing, but he is treated with pucks. True, in addition to the failure of the Motorchik, it can still steer wiring to the motor and a motor resistor, pulling the hole in the radiator ...

Quite often "buggy" central castle. There are many reasons, from wiring doors on old machines to freezing "micrographs" in the door. The system as a whole is not too reliable, and you just need to be prepared for surprises from her side.

The ignition lock during runs "under 200" begins to live his life: may not work the returning spring, which harms the starter, and may simply rotate the key due to wear slats. The rest of the wiring brings infrequently, and the most serious faults appear under the hood. The reason is not very durable sensors and modules and not too reliable corrugations in which the sand can be pulled out.

Brakes, suspension and steering

The brake system is criticized both for "spelling" and for an insufficient resource. Miniature brake discs in conditions mountain roads Very prone to overheating. It is not surprising that the "upgrade" of the system using components from the "older brother" lacetti happens regularly.

The side effect of the weakness of the brakes was frequent curvature of discs and a small brake hose resource. During runs, more than a hundred thousands they can be very inflated. The rest can be presented only for the early wear of the "fingers" of calipers and the need for high-quality and regular cleaning.

Rear brake mechanisms with drums are quite reliable and no special problems are presented. But the fact that the abs herein was optional, it should be noted separately. The machine without an anti-lock system now does not meet the minimum safety requirements, try to avoid similar "boszyak" options. The hassle from the presence of a system of minimum, occasionally refuses wiring to front sensors due to an unsuccessful laying, but the locations of the damage know well in specialized services.

Machine suspension, on the one hand, almost "eternal", and on the other, it does not work normally. Paradox? The low quality of the original components will not allow you to enjoy the perfect side qualities long. Already after 30-40 thousand mileage, the car is a bit "sinking", slightly embroids and tapping, the bearings of the hubs are already noisy, but weakly. But if you do not pay attention and ride, then nothing globally will break. Is that the stabilizer racks in front will knock strongly.

About need urgent substitute hub bearings will tell them howl.

A considerable share of negative causes steering. The rake begins to tapping after the first fifty thousand runs, and to 150 thousand backlash and tapping are already annoying a little. The reason lies both in the rake itself and in cardanic hinkers its drive. True, it flows gradually and rarely, small leaks on the age-related machines - rather, the rule, but 100-200 ml of fluid for the year is not so scary, cheaper to plunder than to repair. But breakdown pump gur and buffet tubes high pressure You can call the trouble more serious and requiring immediate solution. Experienced owners highly recommend not to keep the winter steering wheel on the stops and do not turn the steering wheel in the morning.

That's all. As you can see, Aveo has its advantages: it is simply nothing to break, but what breaks, worth a penny. Is everything well with boxes and motors, read in the next part of our review.

T250 is the first generation of the famous and popular model in the post-Soviet model. It is this modification that is restyling. The release began in 2008 and continued until 2011. Then has already changed generations.

Change specifications

Before moving to the styling, you need to work under the hood. The fact is that the factory settings of the Chevrolet AVEO engine of this generation do not always correspond to our expectations. Therefore, in numerous tuning salons, firmware for the ECU for this model has long been developed. What indicators can be improved when programming? First of all, the power and torque that will affect the increase maximum speed and improving overclocking dynamics.

In addition, after such a chip tuning you can save a little more on the fuel. Consumption on average will decrease by 1-2 liters per 100 kilometers. There are special firmware that are designed specifically to increase the cost-effectiveness of the power unit. But they negatively affect the dynamics. Is it possible to complete the inner tuning on this note? Not really. The fact is that factory components are designed for factory engine settings. Accordingly, if you change the characteristics of the power unit, prepare for the fact that you will have to change some components.

This applies primarily exhaust system. Power growth can only be felt by replacing the standard layout on the so-called "spider" by adding a straight-flow silencer. Installing shock absorbers with shortened springs will make the car more "squat". This will improve handling and add rapidly silhouette.

Do not forget about brake system. Leaving station discsYou risk reduce the level of security during aggressive driving. The best option is perforated larger diameter discs. Moreover, the rear brakes can also be made by disk. And of course, for the completeness of sensations, it is possible to replace the camshaft. It is almost impossible to spend this with your own hands. At the very least, the firmware is better to entrust professionals in order to subsequently not pay more for your mistakes.

Styling Chevrolet Aveo T250

After you have completed the inner tuning of the car, it's time to appeal to its design. As we have noted above, he is morally outdated. With the help of styling you can noticeably revive the exterior. Where to begin? If you are planning with your own hands, learn the offer of body parts intended for styling. There is not so little on the market and there is always a sentence.

The hood with air intakes, wings with habia and pita, all kinds of body kites and spoilers - all this will allow you to make significant changes in the appearance of the car and it will play with new paints. You can change the color of the car to create a composition, cover with special layers like diploma and much more. There are no limits for fantasy. The main thing is the budget.

Install new discs and paint them into body color. Low profile tires Stress the sporty temper of the updated Chevrolet Aveo. Try stylish optics with xenon headlights or LEDs.

At the bottom of the machine, install neon stripes. Head lighting and lights can be toned, including body color.

Changes in the interior

After completing the external styling, you can go to the salon. Working with the interior also requires departure. You can, of course, do budget option and acquire new covers on chairs and mats. But such a light styling is unlikely to please you for a long time. More radical measures - buying new chairs or a hauling. Taking into account the fact that the car refers to the budget segment, spent on dear skin does not make sense. It is enough leatherette.

The same applies to inserts to other parts of the cabin. They are desirable to do in common color gamma With interior. Additionally, add chrome elements, for example, on the gearbox handle. Insertions "under the tree" are unlikely to be appropriate, although it all depends on your specific concept. Lighting creates an atmosphere of comfort and heat. Therefore, this issue is usually paying much attention to tuning. Do not make it too bright or poisonous.

With more detailed tuning Chevrolet Aveo T250 Some car owners decide to change dashboard. To do this, set new sensor scales or remove some of them to the center panel and the front rack next to the driver. As a final chord, set a new multimedia system, as well as speakers. The trunk put a subwoofer and amplifier. But the spaces for baggage in this case will not remain. By the way, remember that in this case you may have to refine noise insulation.

Tuning Chevrolet Aveo T250 will allow the car to transform and change it to be unrecognizable. Much depends, of course, from your budget. You can save on a series of operation with your own hands. But if the means allow you to order an individual project, which, no doubt, pays attention to all road users.
