When did the Cavalier 5 speed manual come out?
I have a 2001 Cavalier 5-speed manual 2.2. I have owned it for every day and every mile (204K) since I bought it new in April of 2001. I have had many mechanical disasters and problems mostly starting a couple of years ago – and a lot of them I have worked on or fixed and/or replaced the part myself.
When do you change the transmission fluid on a Cavalier?
It is now a constant loud rattle whenever the car is in gear – especially starting out in 1st or 2nd. I mentioned this to someone and they asked when the last time the fluid was changed and said that would fix the problem – and couldn’t believe that the fluid had never been changed after 15 years and 200K miles. This model has no dipstick.
Do you use Dexron in a Chevy Cavalier?
But I’m not an expert… Usually, yes, but the manual transmission for my old Chevy Citation used Dexron for its lubrication, so it is entirely possible that this Chevy Cavalier also uses Dexron.
Why does my Cavalier have a rattle noise?
The manual says the same thing. For as long as I’ve had this car, it has had a intermittent rattle noise that I figured was just the “Getrag rattle” – so I didn’t pay much attention to it. But over the past year – especially the last 6 months – this rattle has just gotten totally insane and out of control.
