For a 2004 Chevy Aveo, it is recommended to use a low silicate, ethylene glycol-based coolant that meets the ASTM D3306 specifications. A pre-mixed coolant with a 50/50 ratio of coolant to distilled water is ideal for optimal performance and protection. Always check the owner's manual for any specific recommendations or requirements for your vehicle.
from what I gathered, the hold button keeps it in a certain gear while cruising on the freeway, so it doesnt always shift. I dont know what use that will be.
It does not have a timing belt, Chevy did not use timing belts in there truck engines.
The Chevrolet Aveo, according to manufacturer's recommendations, should only use Chevy Aveo 2007-2011, Coolant and Antifreeze by Genuine®. 1 Gallon, in Orange. You can find it online or in most auto parts stores such as AutoZone.

To remove the CV joints on a 2004 Aveo, first, safely lift the vehicle and secure it on jack stands. Then, remove the wheel and brake components to access the axle. Use a socket to detach the axle nut and then pull the axle out of the hub. Finally, remove any retaining clips or bolts that secure the CV joint to the transmission, and gently pull the joint out from the transmission housing.
