Hello I have a 2006 Chevy Aveo LT and I bought it used and have had to deal with a laundry list of issues that I’m sure is common and I’ll list all of the ones I need taken care of here after I ask my question. At what mileage should I have my head gasket replaced due to a common problem at least state side that Chevy Aveos have head gasket issues. My 2006 Aveo last I checked had 125,971 miles on it I know I’ve put a couple more miles on it since then but not much I would like to know if I should just have a consolation with my mechanic about it or wait till a certain mileage happens.
And without further ado here is my laundry list of repairs in the two columns one of the major preventative maintenance and the other will be I need to get done soon but can wait all including parts labor and tax by my mechanic if I have a quote done and I’ll round it up if I don’t have it written down
