    Yeah; I have several other tried and tested ideas; but they largely go against your ideas. If you have enough trust to consider them; it will be to your benefit. 1> Your '98 Metro is not a Geo Metro; it is a Chevy Metro. General Motors sold the Suzuki built Metro under the Geo brand from 1989 to 1997; but they changed the name of the car to Chevy Metro in ... Read More

  • 2001 Chevy Metro Headlights trouble

    Written by: heman575 on Jan 18, 2011 9:06:32 PM

    When you turn the car on, just the driver side light comes on. I assume these lights turn on automatically when the car is running. The left light don't do anything even after I replaced the bulb. Finally, I checked the three wires connecting to the backside of the bulb connector and grounded the center one out because it seemed to be the ground and the light turns on, but if ... Read More

    Written by: zaken1 on Oct 13, 2010 12:15:53 PM

    Well, I looked up this claim, and found to my surprise that it is right! Apparently, the 1989-96 Geo Metros were made with fuel filters; but the 1997-2001 Chevy Metros did not have fuel filters. Instead of an external fuel filter, they had a fuel pump with a filter screen in the fuel tank. Here's a link to a photo of the 2000 Metro 4 cylinder in tank fuel pump and ... Read More

  • Re: timing gear [jrill]

    Written by: zaken1 on Jul 23, 2009 2:40:16 PM

    Both the crankshaft timing belt sprocket and the camshaft timing belt sprocket (which are located underneath the timing cover) on the 1990 Metro 1.0 3 cyl engine are attached with just one bolt. But the crankshaft pulley for the fan, water pump, and alternator belt is attached with 4 bolts. So it sounds like you are referring to that pulley; rather than the timing sprocket. The number of bolts used on ... Read More

  • 2001 Chevy Metro Purchase

    Written by: looking4acar1 on Oct 16, 2008 10:22:18 AM

    We are looking to buy a 2001 chevy metro sedan w/50,000 miles from a private owner. Most all the consumer reviews I've read have been very positive re safety, reliability, gas mileage, etc. We plan to use this back and forth to the train and for daily college commute for our son. Before we commit we'll have our mechanic take a look. Any pros/cons on this car and any specific things ... Read More

    Written by: zaken1 on Aug 27, 2008 11:48:48 AM

    I called a Chevy dealer on this one; they looked up the fuel module, and said it was located inside the fuel tank, and contained the fuel pump and a sensor. They also verified the outrageous price (theirs was $1300). Unfortunately, they were unable to provide more specific information about the type of sensor that it was. I then went online to Rock Auto's website. They listed two different types of ... Read More

    This is in the fuel delivery system. A faulty fuel pump, the electric fuel pump wiring could be loose it is a prong plug at the gas tank. Check the fuel filter,Check the fuel line, maybe a additive could help in the fuel. The carburetor float could have a pin hole. Take car to a carb shop have them test the carb ,test the vacumn pressure. Sometimes these problems are caused ... Read More

  • 2001 Chevy Metro Stalls, Need Help!

    Written by: lillaurasue22 on Mar 27, 2007 2:48:14 PM

    My 2001 Chevy Metro (automatic) will stall intermittently while I'm waiting at a red light. When it stalls the car won't re-start but the engine will crank. However, the car will restart when it is jumped. The mechanic doesn't know what is wrong as assures me it's not the alternator, battery, starter or fuel injector/pump. Is this a common problem that anyone may know about?? Thanks!

  • 1998 Metro Parts

    Written by: stobar on Mar 13, 2005 8:39:04 AM

    Thanks for your replies! I have since found that the 1998 base models did not have the levers for mirror adjustment. Regarding that interior part behind the mirror that I was missing, couldn't believe the GM dealer was asking $51 for it! I was fortunate to have found this part on eBay for $4.99. Seller stated it fits 1994-2001 models, but I thought 1998 was the year that the design changed? ... Read More

    Although you can't buy a new Metro from Chevrolet you can still get a Swifts from Suzuki. I just returned from a trip to Arizona and the Suzuki dealer in Kingman Arizona had a good supply of Swifts, I counted 7. Prices were great $8995.00 & $9995.00. Just thought I'd let everyone know because this is your last chance to get one because 2001 is it. But I'll continue to happily ... Read More

    I don't know about price "new", but I do know that the Geo Metro has been discontinued for the 2001 model year (a quick check of Chevy's website revealed that). If you can find a leftover 2000 on a dealer's lot he or she will probably be happy to see you take it away. They are a good buy used IF you get as much info as you can about the ... Read More

    Written by: occupant1 on Jan 28, 2001 7:38:32 PM

    I have learned that a Chevy Pop/Joy/Swing can NOT be imported into the US under any circumstances. I hate the EPA. This car gets lower emissions and better gas mileage then half the new cars for sale in the US but because it does this WITHOUT a catalytic converter it is not permitted here. What a load of crap. The 1995-2001 Metro and Swift are MUCH tougher cars than the 1989-1994 ... Read More

  • Metro Replacement

    Written by: hbrow00 on Aug 8, 2000 12:46:18 AM

    Hi, I stumbled on this topic and was surprised to see people wondering what would be the Metro replacement. But the press surrounding GM's concept vehicles in the 1999 Tokyo Auto Show (in October/99, almost 1 year ago now) pretty much spelled it out. The YGM-1, according to all the official press, will "officially" replace the Metro. Here's a quote from http://www.automobilemag.com/events/571.html "GENERAL MOTORS: The YGM-1 is a preview look at ... Read More

    It's already too late to purchase a new 2000 Chevy Metro. GM has discontinued the Metro as of June 1st. You should still be able to get the same vehicle with a Suzuki Swift badge until the end of this year. My dealer wasn't sure if there would be a 2001 or whether it would be replaced with a different vehicle for next year, so if you have your heart set ... Read More

    a cop-out to me...the Metro is still available as a 2000 model, you can buy a 3-cylinder with air and nothing else from Steakley Chevrolet in Dallas for $8299. The 2001 models are supposed to be fleet models only available to customers who order more than five at a time, but if you talk to the fleet manager at your Chevy dealer, he may be able to work something out for ...

    I went out to buy a Chevy Metro on Saturday only to be told by the dealers that General Motors was not offering the Metro/Firefly to customers anymore. They could not be ordered from the factory and the only on the lot units that were available were in Vancouver (I live in Toronto). I went to a Suzuki dealer and they will still offer the Swift until the 2001 model year. ... Read More

    Go to uk.cars.yahoo.com and look at Vauxhall Corsas. That's what another Edmund's user told us is the replacement for the Metro. Here is a link to another UK cars site for a picture of the 1.0 liter 2-door hatchback model: http://www.new-car-net.co.uk/indepth.html?SerialNo=7621 It looks like a Metro, kind of. It gets good mileage: 49mpg combined in the 1.0/5-speed 45mpg combined in the 1.2/5-speed 37mpg combined in the 1.2/auto 37mpg combined in the ... Read More

    Chevy has officially announced that the Metro will not be offered in 2001 for retail sales (it will still be around for commercial.. ie: rental cars). The secret is... will there be a replacement? If not, the Cavalier will be the smallest car Chevy offers for 2001. Has anyone heard any rumors on a replacement for the Metro? One I heard was going to be GM Europe/Opal. Guess one way to ... Read More

    Hi, I have two questions. First the biggie. I've heard that the 2000 model year for the Chevy Metro will be it's last. Go to the following site: http://www.rideanddrive.com/GM-pipeline.html Also, it is in: http://motortrend.com/future/index.html Scroll down to 2001 and "click". See Chevrolet Metro. I've heard Suzuki is discontinuing it's Swift and with that follows the Pontiac Canadian Firefly too. Suzuki only says, "American Suzuki Motor Corporation does not have information regarding ...
