Daewoo Nubira 2000 problems
Daewoo Nubira is a compact car which was produced by the South Korean automaker Daewoo from 1997 to 2002 as a 4-door sedan, 5-door hatchback and a 5-door station wagon.
Development
The Daewoo Nubira (J100 platform) was released in 1997 reflecting Daewoo's new found design and manufacturing process. Production took under 30 months by ex-Porsche and BMW engineering chief Dr. Ulrich Bez (later of Aston Martin), with Daewoo's growing in-house R&D network in Korea, Worthing and Munich collaborating with the world's best engineering consultancies. Styling was done by I.DE.A Institute in Italy, and other companies involved in the development programme included Ricardo and GM Holden. Built in Kunsan, South Korea in a factory equipped with sophisticated laser-guided robots, it was developed as a replacement. People weren't entirely sure what was the replacement, but Daewoo said that not only did it replace the lower and medium specification of the Espero, but also those at the upper end line-up of the Nexia.
Overview
The name Nubira (누비라) is the command form of the Korean verb Nubida (누비다), meaning to crisscross. Thus the name was chosen to convey the aspiration that this car would be seen crisscrossing every corner of the globe.
The Nubira II (J150) (facelift) was released for the model year 2000. Over 90 improvements were made by Daewoo's Worthing Technical Centre in the United Kingdom, including an increase in passenger space and a decrease in noise, harshness and vibration (by adding a fourth engine mount and retuning the intake resonators for example). Offset crash performance was further improved in the second generation, as demonstrated by Australian ANCAP tests, though it fell well short of exemplary performance. The exterior was reworked, including the revamped front, a more angular rear and door mirrors creating a more dynamic upright and swept look of the era, a design later seen reflected by the Lexus ES350 and 2004 Mitsubishi Diamante.
International market Nubiras had a choice of a Daewoo "E-Tec" 1.3,"E-Tec" 1.6, or Holden 1.8 or 2.0-litre inline-four gasoline engines: no diesel version was ever offered, although the Worthing Technical Centre installed Renault's F8 1.9-litre engine in a small number of test vehicles, under a development programme known as J151.
The Nubira was also briefly produced from CKD kits on Taganrog, Russia TagAZ factory; it was marketed as the Doninvest Orion by the Russian automaker Doninvest. Until 2008, Daewoo Nubira was produced in Romania in a former Daewoo factory which had the licence from GM Daewoo. The Daewoo Nubira was still produced in Egypt in 2008, in a former Daewoo factory which has the licence from GM Daewoo.
The Nubira was replaced in 2004 with the J200 Daewoo Lacetti, under GMDAT management with a new Pininfarina-designed body offered as a sedan, station wagon, and Italdesign hatchback. It was sold in some European markets as the Chevrolet Nubira and in the United States as the Suzuki Forenza and Reno.

Common Daewoo Nubira 2000 problems
The Daewoo Nubira 2000 has been reported to have several common problems that affect its reliability and performance. Here are some of the most frequently mentioned issues based on the search results:
- Bonnet Latch Failure: The bonnet latch of the Daewoo Nubira is reported to be weak and can break easily, causing the bonnet not to shut completely. A newly designed version from online stores can be ordered and installed easily.
- Overheating Engine: The engine of the Daewoo Nubira can quickly overheat, even on short drives, due to a cracked radiator assembly. This issue can happen as early as 82,000 miles and requires replacing the entire radiator assembly, which is a challenging DIY job.
- Ignition Lock Cylinder Failure: The ignition lock cylinder can fail, making it difficult to turn the key in the ignition. This issue can be caused by debris inside the ignition or a dead battery in the key. Replacing the ignition lock cylinder is a fiddly job, but it can be done at home with a new cylinder ordered from online stores.
- Fuel Pump Failure: The fuel pump can fail, causing the engine to stall regularly and take multiple attempts to start. A new fuel pump is always available to order from online stores, and installation is straightforward.
- High Idle Speed: The idle stepper motor can cause high idle speed, but it's more likely to be a mechanical issue than an electrical one. Cleaning the throttle body and checking for vacuum leaks can help resolve the issue.
- Body Squeaks and Rattles: Body squeaks and rattles are common in the Daewoo Nubira, and the plastic interior components are prone to cracking and breaking. It's important to ask for a service record to ensure that the car has been well-maintained.
- Lack of ABS: The Daewoo Nubira lacks ABS, which can cause problems with stopping distances and wheel locking during braking.
These common problems with the Daewoo Nubira 2000 can affect its reliability and performance, and it's essential to address them promptly to ensure the car's longevity and safety.

Hi there! It's been almost 2 years since we bought this car and we couldn't be happier with our purchase. We've had no problems with it so far, except for the regular service maintenance every 6 months. The interior is fantastic, with great speakers for the CD player. It's such a shame that the company went bankrupt, as this car is really well-made compared to other name brands.
-
This car is really fun to drive and it's very well built.
-
I hope you're doing well! I just wanted to share my experience with my Daewoo. I bought it at 23,000 miles and it's been a great little car so far. The cup holders are a bit small, but other than that, I have no regrets buying this classy-looking car.
-
You've covered 24000 miles and the car is running perfectly. The only issue is that the wheels look a little worn. However, the dealership replaced a cracked windshield for free, which was great. Overall, it seems like the car has almost everything you want. It's a great car so far!
-
60,000+ miles and still going strong!!!!

Hi there! I wanted to share my experience with my vehicle so far. Unfortunately, I've had quite a few issues with it, including problems with the body and tires. They haven't been very reliable.
Houston Barrows 2024-08-04
This vehicle has had some issues in the past, but with proper maintenance and care, it can still be a reliable mode of transportation. It is important to note that some replacement parts may be difficult to find and expensive, but with the right resources, they can be obtained. Overall, this vehicle has potential and can still serve its purpose with the right attention.
Jerald Mueller 2024-06-19
I bought this car used, and it was in pretty rough shape. However, I needed an affordable and fuel-efficient car for my long summer commutes, so I decided to give it a chance. Despite its lack of power, it drives and handles well. I expected some wear and tear given its age and condition, but I've been able to keep it running smoothly with regular oil changes and tune-ups. I did have to replace the transmission, but that was due to poor maintenance by the previous owner rather than any fault of the car itself. While it may not have much resale value, I plan to keep driving it until it can't go any further - that's just how I treat my vehicles. The only issue I've had is finding a mechanic who is willing to work on it, but parts are still reasonably priced.
Afton Abbott 2024-06-17
Hi there! I hope you're doing well. I just wanted to share my experience with this car that I bought used. It had a couple of dents, but nothing major, and I thought it was reasonably priced. However, I recently found out that it doesn't pass our state inspections due to its age (2000) and the fact that the company is now defunct, which makes it difficult to obtain parts. I just wanted to give a friendly heads up to anyone considering purchasing this car. There are only a limited number of places to get parts and no dealer to call for questions. Take care!
Orrin Nader 2024-04-10
I love my Daewoo! It's an excellent road trip car. However, I do wish there were more dealerships around. I would feel more comfortable about going on long trips.
