The Daewoo Lanos is a compact / sedan car produced by the South Korean manufacturer Daewoo from 1997 to 2002, and thereafter produced under license agreements in various countries worldwide. It has also been marketed as the Daewoo Sens, ZAZ Sens and ZAZ Lanos in Ukraine, Doninvest Assol and ZAZ Chance in Russia, FSO Lanos in Poland, or Chevrolet Lanos in Ukraine, Russia, and Egypt.

It was designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro and initially featured three body styles: three-door and five-door hatchbacks and a four-door sedan. The Lanos was designated the T100 model code at launch; the T150 code applies to the updated models introduced in 1999. In 2006, a panel van version, produced in Ukraine by ZAZ, was also introduced. The Daewoo Lanos was designed to replace the Daewoo Nexia in the Daewoo line-up and was itself replaced by the Daewoo Kalos.

Production of the Daewoo Lanos ended in 2020.

Common 1999 Daewoo Lanos problems

The Daewoo Lanos, produced between 1997 and 2007, is known for several common issues, particularly in the 1997-1999 model years.

One of the most prevalent problems is engine misfires, which can occur due to various reasons. A common cause is a malfunctioning ignition coil, which can lead to a weak spark and result in a misfire. Other potential causes include faulty spark plugs, a clogged fuel filter, or a vacuum leak in the intake system. To diagnose engine misfires, mechanics may use a diagnostic tool to check for any error codes stored in the engine control module and perform a visual inspection of the ignition system, fuel system, and intake system to identify any potential issues. Once the cause is identified, appropriate repairs can be made, such as replacing faulty ignition coils, spark plugs, or other components of the engine. Regular maintenance, such as changing the spark plugs and air filter, can also help prevent engine misfires.

Another common issue experienced by the 1997-1999 Daewoo Lanos models is stalling, which can be a serious safety concern. The primary cause of stalling in the Lanos is a malfunctioning idle air control valve, which regulates the engine's idle speed. If this component fails, it can result in an unstable idle and eventually cause the engine to stall. Other potential causes of stalling include a faulty fuel pump or fuel filter, a clogged air filter, or a vacuum leak in the intake system. To diagnose stalling issues, mechanics may use a diagnostic tool to check for any error codes stored in the engine control module and perform a visual inspection of the idle air control valve, fuel system, and intake system to identify any potential issues. Once the cause is identified, appropriate repairs can be made, such as replacing faulty components or cleaning or replacing the air filter.

In summary, engine misfires and stalling are common issues in the 1997-1999 Daewoo Lanos models. These problems can be diagnosed and resolved with proper maintenance and repairs. By identifying and addressing the root cause of the misfire or stalling, drivers can restore their Lanos to full performance and prevent future engine problems.

Positive 1999 Daewoo Lanos car reviews

  1. Kyle Williamson 2025-01-09

    I'm so glad I took a chance on a Daewoo! Even after driving over 50,000 miles, my Lanos sedan is still running smoothly and is an absolute joy to drive. I can't believe how reliable it is, especially considering the affordable price. After years of driving small domestic cars like the Ford Escort, I had forgotten what it was like to not have to constantly visit the service department. But with my Daewoo, I haven't had a single reliability issue or complaint. It's been a fantastic investment!

  2. Amos Dickinson 2024-11-16

    I still have and drive my great car, which I turned into a racer. Unfortunately, it's no longer sold in Puerto Rico, and many of its parts are no longer available. I had to purchase most of the parts online through eBay or salvage them from other cars at the junkyard.

  3. Alfred Kuhic 2024-10-03

    Handles well, has good acceleration, and boasts good build quality.

  4. Joan Green 2024-07-12

    I hope you're doing well. I wanted to share my thoughts on the company. I really enjoyed their cars, but unfortunately, they don't seem to hold their value very well.

  5. Werner Hermiston 2024-05-16

    I have owned this car for years and it's been a great car. I regularly maintain it by changing the timing belts about 5,000 miles before they are due, changing the oil every 4,000 miles, and regularly changing the automatic transmission filter and fluids. It still has great heat and cold air and gets great gas mileage. I drive it almost daily and I would buy another one any day. I have never had a problem finding anything I need, and the internet is always helpful.
