Absolutely, that idea came to me sometime back but I was not very sure how to go about it in Bangalore, nevertheless thanks for sharing
I have sourced the tensioner,

Maybe fabricating the bracket will be the last approach if the BEAT's bracket doesn't fit

Update: Beat Tensioner bracket fits well with the Sail UVA, I have got the bracket and tensioner replaced at Trident Chevrolet Bangalore.

Thanks for all the advice and support here _/\_

On a related note, there is a rumour that Trident Chevrolet Service Station may close soon


Now I'm thinking if I should replace this car with a new car, I had a good experience so far with the car except finding the tensioner was a bit of trouble.

Also recently realised that car's fuel gauge isn't working correctly, it runs on low fuel ( never on zero fuel) twice, could this be a cause of the faulty fuel gauge - more of it on a new thread!

Your best bet would be a local scrap yard. The Sail UVA was not the most popular car, nevertheless it's worth a try. A lot of my Ambassador & Jeep pals source a lot of spare parts that way!

Looks like bad news! Chevy ASCs are shutting shop one after the other.

One already wound up, two more in line to shut down by end of this month.

[HolyStig]

First of all, didn't know there were any threads for Chevy UVA/Sail owners, but was surprised to see this been active till recently!! Thanks all for keeping the thread alive

I recently bought a Chevy UVA 2009 model as a beater car (yeah bought a Chevrolet in 2022 !!).

Hope this car could do some day-day round-trips to grocery shops and also help my wife learn driving!

Nice to see this thread getting some traction and Chevy UVA owners participating too!

A couple of pointers and updates:

1. Sad news first, Chevy Trident ASC is shut now
2. Good news, from my experience all of the parts of Chevy, is available and it gets delivered in 10 days with the help of a local mechanic / another garage you can get the service done.
3. Getting a scheduled service for your chevy car is way easier and the most recommended way is to get it done in front of your eyes - In fact, I shared my experience to make others aware here (Disappointing service experience with Automovill | Finally got my car serviced by a local mechanic)

Now on another note, I'm looking for car scrap dealers/bodywork garage contact details in Bangalore to source side mirror cap, teambhpian in Bangalore pls guide here

The best place for finding parts is Shivaji Nagar, where do you stay in Bangalore?

Hitting my second issue with spare parts.

I had to use boodmo for a seat belt and now for a power window regulator.

In both cases Chevy gave up and said sorry.
The seat belt from boodmo works very well. I hope they send the regulator quickly.

I am seriously considering exchanging this otherwise fantastic car for something else.

[adisan]

Upcoming Chevy service camp: 15th - 19th June 2022.

[jeganatu]

Cruze OE spares are very expensive though but, there's a lot of options available in the online portals. I also have become a part of an Whatsapp group where some of our members participate and the advantage is that I have information on all cruze spares suppliers pan india.
Planning to retain the cruze as long as possible as I cant think of a suitable substitute at this price point. A few years down the line, things might go different but nothing to gripe about as of now except, GM please come back with a new management and marketting team. The old ones suck.

Is that WhatsApp group still ON. If so I badly want to join the group. Could you help me out please.
