This is the 3rd Chevy I have ever owned in 50 years of driving. I have to say, its the biggest POS I have ever owned. With only 110,000 original miles, 1 owner, I could never dream a vehicle could cause so many headaches. GM, I can only hope you get NO bailout money.............. I kept getting all kinds of codes. This hunk of junk has a OBDI system, not the OBDII system. ... Read More...

GMC Safari/Chevy Astro Electrical Issues

Re: Brake and ABS lights. [egillett]

Thanks for your concern.... For your records, there's a known problem with the ABS system on the Astro/Safari vans. There's an official TSB but NO recall. Still amazes me why no formal recall. For details.... Bottom line is... Defector sensor (which needs to be replaced) or the existing sensor is too "rusted up" to work properly... ----------------- .... Basically, ... Read More...

Passenger Side Power Window

Written by: atarifan49 on Oct 07, 2007 06:47 PM

I've been dealing with an issue with my passenger side power window on my 1995 Chevy Astro. I was told when I bought the van that the motor was burned out. So I went thru the trouble of replacing the motor with a new one. Well, after installing it the window would still not work from either the passenger or driver side. I recently pulled the motor out to make sure it wasn't ... Read More...

Responding to 1998 Astro 1995 Engine!

Written by: arch2 on Jul 11, 2006 00:24 AM

I have to begin by answering a question with a question. Did you purchase your chevy used, and if so, did you purchase it from a dealer or private seller? If you purchased the vehicle from a private seller, it is possible that the engine could have been replaced before you purchased your astro van. If you purchased your astro van from the dealer as a used vehicle, it ... Read More...

1998 Astro 1995 Engine?

Written by: lampinlar on Jul 10, 2006 02:34 PM

I purchased a 1998 astro van a few years ago and have had a number of fuel related problems. I have had to replace the fuel pump twice. The van will not start after sitting for a few hours. If you turn the ignition on but do not start the van for about 2 minutes it will start after a few tries.My mechanic was going to check the fuel injection but it seems that the engine appears ...

1995 Astro Problems

Written by: scott808 on Mar 24, 2006 07:06 AM

I own a 1995 Chevy Astro with about 148K miles, 4.3 V-6, "W" engine. Over the past several months, the engine has developed a pronounced misfire. Gas mileage has dropped considerably from 20 to 22MPG to just over 16MPG with no change in my driving habits or distances. It's at the point now where it's almost undriveable. I've had it in to my mechanic who has replaced ... Read More...
