ha well it turns out that leak is from my heater core, so my heater core is leaking, my engine is knocking and my car needs a new oil pump says the mechanic and I just bought the car with 38000 miles sounds like i should cut my loses while I can! Seems like the leganza is nothing but oil problems fr...

I dont think I like these cars less than 38000 and the problems seem to be piling up. Was about to take my car to the mechanic for the oil pressure problem, I stop at the atm then as im walking back to my car i see fluid pouring out from the bottom at first I was thinking shit dont tell me I didnt t...

Hi,

how much for the oil pump, knock sensor and o2 sensor?

well ill see how it goes tomorrow, btw the oil pressure switch should be located by the actual outside oil filter right?

I wish there was a haynes manual for this car, by chamber you dont mean the oil pan right? Is it near the oil pan or oil filter? Also will I need to purchase any new gaskets for this job? If so let me know which ones so I can try to get it shipped by the weekend

No I did not, but the dip stick said it was full so there was no need to add more than a quart. Will I need to jack the car up to get to the oil switch? Btw Do you know what type of oil is reccomended for these engines? 5w20?

I was told to try to replace the oil preasure switch and change the oil? Where is the oil pressure switch located?

aneab: I was washing the engine bay where oil dripped down


even with the filter problem what would explain the loud clickin noise?

hi, just ran outside to test. As for the knocking noise its hard to tell because there are 2 noises one from the valve cover and the second sounds like it could be coming from behind the valve cover mid engine. As far as the oil light going off....I reved passed 3 on neutral and it flickered once or...

Just bought 2000 Leganza with 38,000 Mi on it, at first it had a big oil leak through the valve cover so I replaced the gasket and that solved the oil leak. Now the oil light is staying on, and when I check the oil with the dipstick its full. The engine is also making a louder noise like its knockin...

Hi,

anyone has the valve cover torque specs and bolt sequence for a 2000 Leganza? I have been trying to track down a haynes manual locally but its not going to well.

hmm well looks like I am a daewoo owner im sure it cant be worse than a pontiac. The coolant seem a lil dirty but the oil is coming out of the valve cover. It looks like someone tried to tighten it to stop the leak and the gasket broke.

I was thinking of buying a 2000 daewoo leganza with 41,000 miles for $2600. The interior and everything seems great except when I open the hood. There seems to be a lot of oil leaking down from around the headers area all the way to the ground. It was all over the front of the engine. What can it be...
