Short of products like "water wetter" or purple ice, I am not sure of the benefits for going to a different coolant. Dex cool is made to not rust or degrade the system components. If you are...
I made "kits" for people. I might still have a few brackets here of the thicker design (not as clean cut due to thickness). The rest is available through the sources listed below.

it means if you look at your vin number, the 8th digit from the front will be the number 6. The LXT is the actual engine code, which if you had a engine sticker (unlikely) or tag then you would be...
Replacing a master cylinder is a "big" job as far as brakes are concerned. I would double check all your other work and the brakes before pulling the main part of the system out. Since you would...
This could be 3 separate problems.
Check the bushings, connections in the shift linkage. They wear out and can even break if "forced"..
The "lurching" is hard to access what is happening from...
I would suspect the master cylinder provided everything you did was checked for proper operation.
Usually if you brake, and the car pulls the opposite caliper isn't working.. so the right side...
1. The dash module IIRC is plug in, but I think it also has a cable pull that needs transferred. Its like a bike brake cable. Although I did this mod when I first bough my car, it has been 11 years.....

If your aveo is AC ready. (look for a condenser in front of the radiator, and the expansion valve plug on the firewall on the passenger side near the serpentine belt). You...
regardless of what you pick, put a small amount on a rag and rub somewhere inconspicuous to see if it removes paint.

Since you are in china, it will be hard for us to help you.
With our american version of the car, most of our "performance parts" are cross compatible engine parts taken from a Holden or Vauxhall.
Mk1-mk3 VW rear discs. Including all upgraded options that use that spindle pattern.
Sort of like the coil over, the bracket (one supplied by me, not the car) needs clearance work. It is...
I was just cleaning out the garage and found 2 sets of the improved thicker brackets. Some hardware, no links.
Anyone interested? $55 Shipped a set, and all you will need to buy is the links.

the back could be just a bag set up in place of the stock spring. I would cut the upper mount flat..
For the front, I would go with this set up:

Just stopping in, I like the new wheels.
Don't get on here too often these days, social media has taken a back seat to real life.
It sounds like you needed a coil pack /wires more than the o2 sensor. But did you buy a decent o2 sensor? a cheapie will often cause just as many issues or make the problem worse..
Start the car,...
if you lift the arm and the push down on the bolt side of the joint and wiggle, I believe the rocking motion should set them loose..

You should run at least a compression test or a cylinder leak down test (preferred) before determining what repair may be necessary.

its going to be easier to reach through the grill, or from under the car with a screw driver to pop the latch on the hood.

What spark plugs did you use? ONLY run NGK coppers.
The only time I have seen a P2270 code was when someone used a "universal" o2 sensor that was not the right band width.

it’s again available.. can’t tell if it’s been cared for or not.
if it is the same as the hatch floor pan, you "fold" the bottom cushion forward. it should pop out of the position. then you will see the hinges so you can remove it. The back seat lays forward as...
The cruze engines are "direct" for the later ecotec aveo.
I would look into a VR6 swap, with a 6 speed. There are support companies that offer practically stand alone wiring systems to put these...
if you can't take it out the bottom, do you have the tools to take it out the top?
You don't "need" a lift. the engine is like 20" high? sou you drop it, and slide it out under the wheel well...
