Emd of rant....
BTW, if you want a new Lanos, they are selling now rebadged as the Chevy Aveo, Pontiac Vibe and Suzuki Swift. The new GM world vehicle if GM ever makes it this year without going belly up will be the Chevy Kruze, also known as The Daewoo Lacetti which is the latest generation of the Daewoo Nubira.
I no longer have either of my two Kia's, I am driving a 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer GTS. But I still realize the importance of Daewoo to GM, it was an entry manner for GM to start building cars for the Asian masses.
I think that GM will go bankrupt eventually, and reorganize a stronger and leaner Company. I have a hard time seeing it go any other way, they are in so much crushing debt, and people aren't buying new cars.
Nice to hear from you again. I remember some really good times on here for years sticking up for the Korean makes, facing tremendous resentment from the domestic carfanatics. Look how things have gone, Hyundai/Kia are surging, GM has taken the plants and resources and built some good cars for many markets through GM Daewoo Auto and Technology Co., and the domestics are going down the potter.
I remember your '99 Daewoo Leganza so well, and how you have described it's various aspects through the years, and how it has lasted well for you. A lot of it is following the manufacturer's recommendations for routine maintenance, eh?

Thanks for your help
Last year I drove my trusty Leganza down across the USA all the way from Toronto to Sunny Florida and back the next week. Very nice road trip. Not bad for a Daewoo, and I made it to Florida in 3 tanks full.
If you go back to the historical posts, all my predictions did come true. The most interesting GM small cars today are Daewoo cars being sold worldwide. Including some SUV's (Saturn Vue is the Daewoo S3X). But like you said, I agree GM will have to go bankrupt at some point and come back as GM2. What would be nice is if Daewoo came back as its own brand, if GM does not make it.

Car runs good, no smoke or high temperture.
No water in oil, clean. no loss of power
Not loosing oil or coolant.
But foamy and thick in the coolant plastic bottle area.
any Ideas? I thought I would drain and flush the radiator and refill.
But concern about condition of the coolant?

Any body know about Daewoos? :confuse:
Do you mean how to jack up the vehicle?
Or do you mean, how to take the lug nuts off?
Or do you mean, how to take the rim/tire off the vehicle?
Or do you mean, how to dismount the tire from the rim?
Have the car jacked up, but perhaps can't figure out how to get the lugnuts off.
Is that your problem?
Correct, as the other poster has responded, you need to hit on the wheel a little bit. But, be careful. First, make sure the vehicle is well supported so when you are hitting on the wheel that you don't put enough pressure to knock it off the jack. Secondly, be careful that you don't dent or bend the rim.
You can also try spraying with a little WD-40, but don't overdo it. Take off the lugnuts, and then around each lugnut spray some juice and try to get it in the joint where the stud comes thru the rim. You want to get the spray on the 'inside' of the rim, between where the rim would get snugged up against the backing plate by the lug bolt. Don't go crazy with the spray and get any on the brake disc or pads.
If it is really stuck on, you may have to use the weight of the vehicle to break it free. In that case, put the lug nuts back on, but don't snug them up, leave them so they are just not touching the rim. Then lower the car back down on all fours, and start rocking the car back and forth sideways.
We will try putting the lugnuts back on and rocking it. It is well supported by cement blocks. (Jack is to flimsy)

Have a 2000 Leganza, 90,000 miles. I'm on my third timing belt (last one three months ago). Only driving 30 miles a week - last night the engine completely died when making left turn (had decelerated). Restarted immediately. Was only 2 blocks from home - made it but happened again as I pulled into driveway. Today, started fine and drove 3 or 4 miles. Any ideas? Other than problems with windows, no other trouble. (Driver's window won't budge, passenger window has to be opened from driver's side but will only close from passenger side but have to work with it), and sunroof no longer opens or closes. Can live with the windows but worried about total loss of power like that. Any suggestions or ideas? Does it have anything to do with last timing belt replacement? Thank you so much for any help.
Are you sure it's the timing belt being replaced, or the serpentine belt (which is normal maintenance)? Anyway, you shouldn't have to have a new belt replaced that is only 3 months old. It either wasn't replaced correctly, or there is something else wrong.
Window problems sound like bad switches, or low battery voltage.
I have changed the fuel filter but that has made no difference.
I have to wait untilthe weather has coold down in the evening sometines several hours before it finally starts, with no problem.
Thanks

My mechanic stated it might be the electronic control module (ECM) or body control module??. Regardless he does not have the computer to check it out. A previous Daewoo dealership want $100 just to look at it! Any suggestions? Thanx

I am really confused - Is it OK to use this as power steering fluid?
I would appreciate your suggestion/advice.
