DAWOO Connecting Rods

The rods in this category serve the small-car and compact family that was sold under both the Daewoo and Chevrolet badges, so the same engine may be called a Matiz, a Spark or an Aveo depending on the market it was bought in. Three applications are listed: the 1.6L engine in the Daewoo and Chevrolet Aveo, the 0.8L F8CV unit in the Matiz and Spark, and the 1.0L Matiz engine.

For the 1.6L, the rod is supplied against 94580740, with 90181724 and 266705762 as the alternative numbers, which helps when the parts book in your market carries a different code. The 0.8L F8B, F8C and F8CV engines take 96666388, and 96239600 is the second number worth checking against it. The 1.0L Matiz rod is identified as 96325198. Because one engine can wear three different badges, the safest way to order is to read the number off the rod coming out of the block rather than to work from the car's name alone.

These rods are factory-direct aftermarket parts, forged from alloy steel and finished to the original dimensions, with checks carried out batch by batch. There is no fixed minimum order on stock models, so a single rod for a repair job is accepted, and stock normally leaves in about a week. If in doubt, read out the number on the rod you are removing and we will tell you which of these codes applies.
