Is a $500 2005 Chevy Cobalt any good?

[@kennyetenne8894]

These mini build/repair saga's are very cool! Keep'em coming!

[@georgiareload6599]

I love my Cobalt. Only 260K and it still runs great.

[@ricardoportillo9650]

I got one for 1800 107k miles, 2005 cobalt ss, it works perfect, its a little aggressive, the seller said its the (special clutch) he order,

[@thevacdude]

I like these Cobalts, they're cheap, good on gas, and have decent power for a little 4 banger. Thanks for the video, Jim.

[@shootacash6165]

I got a Chevy cobalt for 600$ the people said it was the transmission but when I got it all I did was put oil in it and it started working 😂

[@suchimuchivibes]

Keep making these bro! Your channel will hopefully start getting the attention it deserves very soon.

Thanks

I own a 2008 Colbalt with 109000 miles. The only problems I had is the turn signal switch had to be replaced an currently the AC leaks. The paint is still shiny accept for the clear coat peeling in some areas. I can't afford a new car so this car is for the rest of my life, I hope it will last for another 25 years or so.

Bought. An 08 still driveing it with two hundred thousand miles on it. Onley thing I have did to it is new timeing changed every 100 thousand miles if they break you are done tires breaks. Oil changes Just bought an 09. With 80. Thousand miles on it they ran it lie on oil locked up the main bearings in it. I onley payed a toe bill for it puting an engin it now. They are good little cars if you take care of them you can get 300 thousand out of them cheap to work on two

[@markirizarry4851]

I bought my neighbor’s ‘05 Malibu for $500 a year ago. Still driving my boxy ‘Bu work car. Just turned 195k miles on the 2.2 L Ecotec.

[@rodolfomarks1580]

Loved the vid. Very informative. Keep them coming. Continued success.

[@jax1930]

I loooooooooove the innuendos, Jims! ;) haha, I'm learning a lot, too.

[@latenightnickoli]

They must have left a carton of beer in the back when she got inspected.

[@GeoTrashPanda]

LoL I is drive by wire! LoL iv3 got two cobalts, on LS L61/f23(111K miles) and a SS LNF/F35(65k miles). All running like Champs! I wish #GM @GM would bring it back! Simple, easy and cheap to work on!

[@drivewaygarage1561]

I just bought one for $500. It has an electrical issue which I think is a bad ground. I did normal maintenance on, detailed it and hopefully fixed the ground issue. Now I am hoping to sell it and make a few bucks. I might even change the fuel filter.

[@donovandestro6745]

Try looking at your main engine ground strap. I replaced one with a wire and it fixed every electrical issue I had and the car wouldn't even run before

[@williereyeschannel2075]

Hey! Your in El Paso haha. I’ll be moving there from up here in Detroit Michigan at the end of this year. I was wondering if there where any pick and pull junkyards down there like we have here and apparently you do going by the other videos you’ve uploaded. Good news to me haha. Love your videos man you seem like a happy ol fella! The Corolla video was the best thus far to me. Great videos man!

[@randy.388miller3]

Decent little transportation car for somebody....Jimmy wins again.

[@Boebus666]

[@michaelr.williams8176]

[@nitrocity-tt5tg]

Nice cobalt

[@ricardoportillo9650]

I'm not a mecanic and buy a 2005 chevy cobalt ss, manual trany, 2.0 I think. 109k miles, after a few days not running turn it on but is up and down the RPMs. I noticed black smoke at the end of the pipe, left it on for like 20 minutes, now in normal temp, runs a little better but if I push the gas pedal quick it rpms goes up and down like 3 times and goes back to normal, do you think its something that I have to fix asap or just run it like that? Thank you

[@jimmyjimjims7483]

Does it have a check engine light? Sounds like your MAF sensor is bad

[@angelopapageorgiou4607]

funny thing is i bought the same exact car for 500 bucks

[@Isthatlouuu]

Me too😭

[@ItsGinter234]

Hey I think my car is having some of these same problems I’ll have to check what code it is again but if your still active on this let me know I have a few other questions

[@erikgonzalez2278]

Love me a cheap beater and those 2.2 and 2.4 love to rev for a four banger lol most of those Indian owner they are cool as shit though

[@nielsafletcher9590]

I have a 2005 cobalt and it's stuttering and my exhaust is pulling air in instead of blowing out. Turns on fine. Please help

[@jimmyjimjims7483]

When your exhaust sucks in instead of blowing out it means the head gasket in most cases is bad. Are you losing coolant? Def sounds like a bad head gasket

[@sethsstuff5110]

I had a pontiac sunfire with the same 2.2 engine and it did the same thing and it was a bad head gasket

[@Jonathan-bk3dq]

Has a bad timing chain. Can hear it on startup. And they are drive by wire, that's what the plug is lol.

[@jimmyjimjims7483]

You know whats weird is the guy I sold this car to gave it to his daughter and she still drives the damn thing! Chevys will run like crap longer than a lot of cars will run at all lol. I saw it around town a few times in slightly worse physical condition but still putting around

[@csquared2458]

The rt is BS. Sorry but it’s just a sticker. Never made an rs

[@Shishizurui]
