How do you fix the heating problem on your 2000 daewoo nubira?

To fix the heating problem on a 2000 Daewoo Nubira, start by checking the coolant levels; low coolant can prevent proper heating. Inspect the thermostat to ensure it is functioning correctly, as a stuck thermostat may restrict coolant flow. Additionally, examine the heater core for clogs or leaks, and make sure the heater controls are operating properly. If these steps do not resolve the issue, consider consulting a mechanic for further diagnosis.

How do you change a crankshaft seal on a Daewoo engine?

To change a crankshaft seal on a Daewoo engine, first, ensure the engine is cool and disconnect the battery. Remove any components obstructing access to the crankshaft, such as the timing cover and pulleys. Carefully extract the old seal using a seal puller or screwdriver, taking care not to damage the housing. Clean the area, lubricate the new seal with engine oil, and press it into place before reassembling the removed components.

Torque settings for a Nissan Micra cylinder head bolts?

For a Nissan Micra, the torque settings for the cylinder head bolts typically range from 20 to 25 Nm (15 to 18 lb-ft) for the initial stage, followed by a further angle tightening of about 90 degrees for the final stage. However, it's crucial to refer to the specific service manual for the exact model year, as specifications can vary. Additionally, always ensure to use a proper torque sequence to ensure even pressure across the cylinder head.

How do you reset the clock in the radio in a 2000 Daewoo Nubira CDX?

I don't know if this will work on this perticular car but it works on a bunch. Press the set button and change the hours by pressing the seek button and the minutes by pressing the scan button. Try it.

Assuming you have the Philips RC600 system, here are the instructions (quoted directly from the manual):

  • Press INIT key for at least 2 seconds (until you hear a beep) to enter the Initialisation mode.
  • Press (UP) or (DOWN) to select TIME
  • Press AST key to select 12H or 24H.
  • Press (UP) key:

- Display shows: e.g. '00:00' (24 hour format) / 'AM 12:00' (12 hour format) - Hour digit starts flashing

  • Press AST key to adjust the hour setting, same for minute.
  • Press (UP) key to switch to minute setting, and press (DOWN) key to return to hour setting.
  • Press INIT key until you hear a beep to leave the initialisation mode

My hoda civic keeps blowing your tail light and instrument light fuse can you put a higher fuse in?

Fuses [and Circuit Breakers] are designed into electrical circuits TO PROTECT the conductors [wires] in the circuit from overheating, damaging themselves and other adjacent wires, and possibly causing a FIRE! NEVER, NEVER, EVER substitute a larger ["higher"] rated fuse or breaker. This is an invitation for potentially disasterous results. When a fuse "blows" indicates either a short circuit or an overload [drawing too much current (measured in Ampheres, commonly callled Amps)] somewhere in the circuit. When replacement fuses/breakers repeatedly fails indicates that the fault is not transitory, but permantent until the cause is corrected [repaired]. All of the wires, switches, electrical devices in the circuit must be checked out until the fault has been found, and removed or repaired. Again, NEVER replace a blown fuse or tripped breaker with one with a larger current rating!

I have a 1999 daewoo nubria all the windows work but the drivers side window?

It's possibly the switch or the motor in the door.

I have a 99 Nubira (Australia) and the window winder motor died. I got a 2nd hand/used one with the assembly and swapped it. Now it works fine! Jeff in Oz

How do you replace o2 sensor on Daewoo nubira?

There is an 02 sensor on the exhaust manifold, which is called a "before-the-cat" 02 sensor since it is before the catalytic converter. You need to unplug it's connector from the side of the engine block. Then, after warming the car up to operating temperature, use an 02 sensor wrench which you can borrow from Autozone, and unscrew it. BE CAREFUL! The Exhaust Manifold is EXTREMELY hot and you will be BURNED if you touch it with your hands. Unfortunately these sensors are meant to operate at a high temp, so you need to unscrew them and screw them back in while the engine is hot. That's it. There's also some goop that I think you put on the new one so that you can remove it later. 02 sensors can be expensive. So make sure you are replacing the correct one.

There is another 02 sensor underneath the car on the exhaust pipe just before the catalytic converter, so right below the engine. You'll also need to warm up the car first and lie on your back, but this guy won't be as hot as the manifold up top. No matter what, be careful and have a buddy there with you to help as you need it. Wear eye protection, etc.


I don't know of any others on this particular car but there may be.

How do you change the transmission fluid on a 2002 daewoo nubira 5 speed manual transmission?

To my knowledge the car must be taken to a dealer to change the fluid and serviced. **BETTER WAY** The best and most common way is to remove the spedo gear. . It sits above the DIF housing and only has one screw nd comes out reall easy. . . I hate these fags, the manual said to check the level on a flat surface nd all, but when i did it i got a load of the worst smelling oil all ova me. . ;( Gave me a reason to overhaul the gearbox tho. . .

Your check engine light came on today It feels like the transmission is slipping and will not shift into overdrive?

Check Ignition switch. Does your speedo or tach work? If not it's the ignition switch. The transmission needs 12volts to operate and if the ignition switch is not working right you will not have first gear or overdrive, the suburban will try to take off in second and seems like your tranny is slipping!

How do you replace a starter in a 2000 Daewoo Nubira?

Ok this is really anoying to do if you just try and remove it if u have no idea where the "sneaky bolt" is. . .

>>>UNPLUG BATTERY!!!!<<<

When under the car u should be able to locate the starter motor near the RHS of the gearbox where the drive shaft comes out to the wheel. .

Once found i believe from memory its a 12 or 13mm bolt.

>>1st bolt is nasty as it has the Ground cable connected to the second part of this bolt. . u will find that u will need a very thin spanner to hold the 1st part of the bolt whilst u unscrew the nut on the end of it. once done u can slip the ground caple of and unscrew the rest of the bolt. . .(if u hanvt got a thin spanner like me i suggest a cro-bar and jam that in between the bolt and the ground so u can undo the 1st part. . ;)

>>2nd bolt is the "sneaky one" get out from under the car and look into ur engine bay next to the brake booster (round drum) follow the brake lines down towards the engine. . . Bellow the lines is the top of the transmission box. . . fealing the transmission box move ur hand towards the middle of the engine bay where there is a rib on the transmission box (under secondary air resonator) u should be able to feel a bolt there, and maybe see the solenoid for the starter. . . Unscrew this and then give the starter a nice yank. . . it should drop of >>!!be aware that the power cable is still attached to solenoid and must be undone. . .

SO in summary there are two bolts. . . one to be undone from underneath and one from the top of the gear box directly above the starter motor. . .

Ive done allot of mods to my daewoo nd know a fair bit about the electrical and mechanical componenets. . . anyone feel free to add me on myspace if they need help. . Goto "myspace.com/therudz"

How do you check and change a heater matrix on a Daewoo Matiz?

Matrix!?What is a heater "Matrix"? do you mean an element? i have never seen an electic elementy in a automotive interior heater, but i will admit that i don't know that they don't exist---but have never heared of a part named a "Matrix"...i think you may find a small radiator like vessel that takes coolant from the engines cooling system via a black rubber pipe (probably about 1 & 1/4 inch's diameter) through a valve, that is connected and controlled by the heater temperature dial/slide switch, that varies the volume of heated engine coolant that can circulate through the small radiatior like vessel that is in the interior ventilation air box cavity/enclosure. AnswerHeater matrix / heater core / heater rad they're all the same thing, the small impossible to get to approx 8" square little mini radiator that is nicely installed at the very back of the dashboard always. To check it, I suppose you will be looking for signs like a quick burst of hot when you select hot but then it quickly fades to cold again, that could well be a sign of a blocked heater rad. Wet carpets in the footwells could mean a leaking heater rad. Steamy windows that just cant be demisted - now that's a definite sign of a leaking heater rad and also the smell of coolant inside the car. The only check you might do on it is to check for it being blocked I suppose with a garden hose, you would need to take the hoses of the inlet/outlet ports in the engine bay and stick the garden hose to one of the ports, if the water shoots back out at you through the same hole then the rad is blocked I would say. Removing the heater rad now that's a task. My friend and I did one in 4 hrs flat last Saturday and I still cant believe we (he) managed it that fast. He removed the centre console and then the black trim around the radio and instrument cluster. Then he disconnected the instrument cluster and removed it too, the radio also landed in the back seat along with the previously mentioned stuff. Next came the steering wheel and what to do about the airbag which was worrying us. He removed the glovebox and up above it is a yellow connector which he reckoned was the wire for the airbags, then he unbolted the passenger side airbag unit from the 'tie bar' leaving the passenger airbag mounted in the dashboard plastic. In the end we couldn't get the wheel off without a puller which we didnt have so the wheel stayed. This obviously makes removing the one piece dashboard impossible so having removed all the dashboard screws and bolts we just did our best to get in under it and get the job done. Next the centre steel unit which holds everything together in the mid section of the dash was unbolted (8 bolts). Pulling this now only forward enough to work behind at the final hurdle was possible. The big black plastic box unit (heater module) which can clearly be seen from the minute you start this job can now be unbolted from the bulkhead. When you've done that you need to split it down the middle by undoing the 8 or so screws all round it - its a bit like cracking a big Easter egg open down the seam. That done, split the box open, whip out the heater rad/matrix/core, lash in the replacement and put the box back together minding how the flaps should all be located properly as you do it. Now its just a case of putting it all back the way it was. The way we did it was definitely not as they recommend in the manual and I cant claim to have treated the airbag situation as we should have but cars are cars and they gotta be fixed and we don't all have the funds to be marching off down to a main dealer every time theres a fault. We got away without removing the wheel and the bags and the dash so maybe you can too. We were working on a M100 '00 Matiz. Best of luck to anyone who does it, just get your head together and tear into it, don't be doing the stopping and staring thing I am prone to, that's exactly the reason I enlisted my pal who doesnt hang about on a job.

Edit Raymond Snijkers:

I am currently changing (or trying to change) the heater matrix on a 2000 Matiz. I'd like to add to the above that there is no need to split the black box. You can simply slide the matrix out of the back of the box. There are two plastic 'hooks' at the back that hold it in place.

For me the biggest challenge is loosening the two radiator hoses from the matrix. These can only be reached via the engine compartment. But then the engine is in the way. Does anyone have an idea how to solve that?

Grant revan - Edit

Hi- I have just removed the entire dashboard to get at the matrix. You don't need a puller for the steering wheel - just bang the wheel a few times with a rubber mallet and then give a big pull - it will come off - honest. You can then remove the dashboard and the metal frame in front of the the heater unit and if you undo the 4 bolts securing it (the heater unit)to the bulk head it just lifts out leaving the matrix sticking out in mid air. You need a hose clip removal tool (flexible) to undo the hose clips in the engine bay - they are murder to get at with a pair of pliers - I have tried. You can buy them on eBay for about £20. NB you need the correct size torx bit to undo the airbags on both sides and you need the anti-tamper version which is quite rare. You do not need to remove the control stalks by the way, just the steering wheel. The dash will just fit over the stalks. Make sure you have the torx bit (its a 40 or a 45 I think) and the hose clamp tool before you try this job or you will not get it done in one go.

How do you reset radio in a Daewoo Nubira?

The radio code feature of Daewoo models (sold in the US from 1998 - 2001 as Leganza, Nubira, and Lanos) is meant to be an anti-theft security feature, but unfortunately it can also present a problem to legimate owners when their car batteries have died or been replaced. When the radio is removed from the power source (or the power source is interrupted), the radio will reset itself (prevent any use) and flash "CODE" until the proper code is entered.

Each radio has a specific four-digit code, which was originally provided on a plastic card within the owner's manual kit. New owners were encouraged to remove the card and keep in a safe place outside the car (eg home). Since these cards may be lost over time (or perhaps not passed along when the car was sold used), that leaves today's owner in a tough spot.

To obtain your code... You can try calling Daewoo Motor America (the company still operates a HQ in CA for service/parts/warranty purposes); their website is still www.daewoous.com. You can also try calling your original Daewoo dealer, who hopefully still has some technical materials and personnel to help you identify your unique code. Some General Motors dealers may be able to help, as GM acquired Daewoo and still sells Daweoo-made cars in the US under their Pontiac and Chevy brands. But all methods above may be difficult for an individual detailed problem such as obtaining your unique radio code.

If all else fails, TRY THE CODES BELOW, which were the most common codes used in models during the 1998-2001 model years.

I am posting these because - although the code feature was a valuable anti-theft feature - there have been no models sold in the US since late 2001, and the radios are now undoubtly worthless to theives. At this point, the radio code feature can only be a major nusance to an owner of a still-running used Daewoo. Good luck and enjoy your car!
