    Bad Points: It certainly isn't fast but relaible it IS. I have not spent much money keeping it running other than several alternators which I did myself.


    General comments: I have a 1990 Lumina APV. Pretty much the base model although it has the 6 passenger seating which is nice. After having it for 8 years , it now has a whopping 87.000 miles on it! The 3.1 hums right along although I did just have to have the intake manifold gasket replaced. I wasn't sure if I wanted to fix it but it has run so well that I went ahead anyway. If I can get another year out of it, I'll be happy.
    Mileage isn't great with the 3 speed auto trans but I think I can squeeze 19 out of it around town.
    Overall a great vehicle especially since it was the first year for it. Could use a little more juice under the hood but I'll live with what it has.

    I bought my 94 Lumina with 76,000 km on it in 1997 and the odometer now reads 370,000!!! It has had its share of problems over the years but what do you expect for a vehicle that has more than double its lifespan mileage on it. The biggest was a failure of the oil pump drive at 185,000 which resulted in the trashing of the engine. GM and I came to a satisfactory agreement as to a cost split on a brand new replacement engine and it has been trouble free to date. I am having a problem with the tr ...

    The Chevrolet Lumina APV 3.1 V6 "Dust Buster" people Carrier is probably one of the worst vehicles I have ever been in. One must climb over the second row of seats to reach the back, and the engine noise level is very loud, even in the far-away rear row. The car wil not rust, however, thanks to some plastic body panels.

    The Chevrolet Lumina is an excellent car! We bought it new in 1992 and we've still got it. The only problem is getting it serviced by people that know about american cars and who don't pretend to or rip you off (Bauer Millett, Manchester and Rodley Motors that don't have a clue) In 1996 we bought a Ford Fiesta and yesterday the engine ceased up. Its rubbish, don't ever buy a Ford Fiesta! its had problems since the start. Since 1992 the chevy has had only a few thousand spent on maintance (new re ...
