Could be completely wrong, though. You may have a spark plug blizting in and out, a loose wire or any number of things.
Try the forum that I linked to ("auto repair") in post #668.
Seems like one of the most helpful places I've seen on the net as far as mechanically-oriented people answering questions. Cars are tricky though.
hope this helps

Also what is the proper torque for the head bolts?
Thanks,
Ray. (Victim of a timing belt failure and 16 bent valves)
I have a 1997 Nubira 1.6 lit that has an issue with the oil pressure light coming on, it still drives (I know, I'm a mechanic of old and had to get home) but the cam starts to rattle, the light comes on and off.
Has anyone had the same problem? Is it the oil Pump? Where is the oil pump can you get to it by dropping the sump? Could it be a blockage in the head gasket as the bottom end has not siezed up?
Will have a go myself if I have some info rather than spend loads of $'s.
PS...FYI you can buy parts online direct from Daewoo now.
thanks for the tip i will check to see what the dryer for my compressor cost we had to order the dryer for the compressor as well it should be in today or monday then we will know for sure rather the air will work.

hope you get things worked out and find a decent car.

I have been advised that it is probably worth trying a new cam belt and hope that the pistons are not to badly damaged (your opinion??)
I am reluctant to spend £100 on a mechanic, but have a colleague who can do this for me though he doesnt know Daewoo's.
He needs the timing specs and settings for the cams to refit a belt.
Please help!!

4 months ago I bougt my daughter a 2001 Leganza Se. Got it home an the oil was leaking badly. Oil pump gasket was bad. whil he had it open, I did the timing belt $800, but that timing belt was coming due soon any way.
As far as parts, Many many part cant be gotten for your garage mechanic. timing belt, tension pulleys were all available. The oil pump gasket and oil pan gasket were not as easy for the mechanic to find. I went to daewoous.com and ordered the parts. They overnighted them at a premium shipping, and they part got to my mechanic before the ones he order from his normal supplier.
Daewoous.com has every part. They have diagrams to show you what you need. Now they may be a little more expensive, but they are available.
I had to later replace the break-light switch which I got at auto zone. $20 five minutes.
All in all the best car investment I have ever made.

thanks alot for your input but for me there is not alot of good things i can say about my 2001 daewoo nubria CDX.maybe i am not picking up on some things about my car wish i felt different about it but i don't
have a good day and hope you continue to have good results from your car truley do.

Have had a look at daewoous.com, but am in the UK and cant get proper access.
All i am looking for is the settings needed when replacing the belt so the timing is correct. Daewoo no longer have a working website in the UK and have no manual to refer to. I am struggling to find anywhere that can give me this information and is really important.
(Was meant to be going on a driving holiday today!)
Anyone have any ideas??
Thanks

You have a scan of all the part list of leganza here :
http://acdc-service.ru/leganza.php
You will find all about A/C.
I have also the scan of the leganza service manual in pdf if you want.
hope this will help you !
I purchased a rebuilt unit with 12 mo warranty.
Total spent was a bit less than $800 including a line I had to purchase from a dealer for $76
So far, so good. !!!!!!!!
Goood luck
It really seem to me that people with nubera and lanos do not like their cars, but leganza people are very happy with theirs.
It mounts down by your brake pedal !
this will cure your problem !

Thanks to who ever could help out
get your control panel checked
good luck
someone else took it in to fix it, so i don't know what really was wrong. but they said something along the lines that the wiring of the display unit burned out and they replaced the affected wire(s). it cost around a $100 and wasn't that complicated.
Mine - 63,300 miles, 99 Leganza.
Hasn't had major issues (just a bunch of small annoying ones).
Thanks
hope this will help, good luck
Did you find out were to obtain the timing specs and settings for the cams to refit a new belt? I have a 2001 Daewoo Leganza and need the same information.
Thanks in advance.
