Why won't the aveo shift into overdrive?
I replaced the engine in my 2004 Chevy aveo after the timing belt destroyed my old engine. After I spent 2000$ to replace the engine, the check engine light started to flash (indicating engine missfire), it would not shift into overdrive, and after having the codes read (tranny and missfire codes) my mechanic spent a month trying different things to fix the problem. After doing a ton of research I figured out that anytime you replace an engine in a Chevy aveo, you must take it to a dealership to have a crank shaft variation (or re-learn) procedure done. Now, my mechanic told me he had done the procedure several times and he knew that was not the issue, so before I let him take it to the transmission shop to waste time, I decided to take it to the dealership to have have the procedure done. After 150$ more, the re-learn procedure worked, and I talked my mechanic into splitting the bill with me because we both knew so much time had been and would of been wasted if I wouldnt of figured it out myself. So please, anyone who is having the same problem I promise it's because the procedure must be done once the engine is replaced. It took the dealership several times to get my car to re-learn to shift, but it worked!
How many gallons of gas does the average mid-size car hold?

Where is the oil pressure switch on a Chevy Aveo?
It's in the front of the engine down toward the crank shaft on the side closest to the firewall. It is mounted on the oil pump. single wire connected to it.
Can you add air conditioning to a Chevy Aveo that didn't come with it?
Yes, for about $1000 it can be done at a lower cost than other cars because the inlet tubes into the passenger car are already there and hooked up to the evaporator (the thing that makes it cold). So all they have to do is put in the compressor, condenser, accumulator dryer and the high and low pressure switches.
How do you change fog light bulbs in a 1998 Pontiac Grand Prix?
I've changed my fog light bulbs on my 1998 Grand Prix GT at least 2 times. First of all, there were two types of bulbs at the Trak Auto or Pep Boy's store where I purchased the replacement bulbs. Spend the few extra bucks and get the long-life version or you'll be replacing them again within a few months. I think the lower grand ones can't handle the normal road shock. To replace the bulbs, you need to lay on the ground under the front bumper and reach up around behind the fog light assembly and turn the bulb socket connector a quarter turn and then remove the bulb socket connector from the fog light housing. Replace the bulb using a soft cloth. I try not to touch the new bulb with my fingers if possible. Insert the bulb connector socket into the fog light housing and turn a quarter turn in the opposite direction as it was removed.
Where is the map sensor on your 2005 aveo?
Top of the engine dead center towards the back, It has a 3 wire connector,and a vacumb hose attached that runs across the front of the manifold to the intake. See the picture on napa site. it bolts to the intake. Looks like it will be easy to change. mine is puting the check engine lite on with a P0106 OBDII code. I think I will change the hose going to it first it looks like it has some cracks in it.

Also, you need to check out the hose that runs from the MAP sensor to the air intake. It is a small line in the center top of the engine with rubber hose line of about 2.5" in each end. Check these for brakes or cracks. Mine was cracked on the backs side so you need to pull them of to check it. It cost me $1.05 for one foot of hose and now my Aveo has 94000 miles and runs great.

It depends what year you're looking at.I would stay away from '04 and 05 since they had problems with headgaskets and valves.The rest are fine but do consider that you HAVE to change the timing belt @ 60.000 miles or you are looking at a big repair bill.'09 and up are good for 100K.Like any other car keep up on mainteinace and you'll be fine.
How do you get cap off that is covering wheel bearing?
I'm guessing you referring to the dust cap probably the easiest way is to gently hammer a flat head between the dust cap and the hub and pry moving around from top to bottom and eventually it'll just pop out but be careful not to pound the screw driver to hard or it will go through the cap
Where is the cabin air filter located in a Chevy aveo?
Right behind the glove box. First you have to remove the glove box which is easy. Open it half way and pull up. It's a bit tough, but it will eventually pop out. Once that is removed, you will see a vertical cover on the box that is behind where the glovebox was. remove that cover and you will see your cabin air filter.
Your 2004 Aveo Chevy stopped running no indication of problems what can it be?
These cars had a problem with the teeth on the original timing belt coming off and the belt not breaking. if this has happened most likely you have bent valves too. These are a interference engine which means if they slip on the timing the valves hit the pistons. Chevrolet should have recalled these cars and put a better timing belt in them. Instead they did a goodwill service where they paid for a new timing belt if the owner paid to install it.

How do you reset tire pressure monitoring system on a 2008 Chevy Aveo?
Normally this light comes on due to low air in one or more tires.Check the air pressure in your tires. I also have a problem with the light coming on if I am parked on a slight angle for too long (but I have the car running most of the time too). I think it might have something to do with weight shifting? I'm not sure.
