Power loss, jerks and stalls 
Solved
Daewoo Matiz 2000 144000 miles
Hello, I have a big problem with my Matiz 2000. It is powerless and, at idle speed, once the normal working temperature is reached, revolutions raise and drop continuously, generating a low oil pressure. Even more, the car jerks considerably at any gear and both when cold or warm. In order to stop the jerking a little bit, I need to keep the clutch pressed more than usual, generating a disgusting burnt clutch smell. I've replaced everything already, including: cylinder head, valves, filters, fuel pump, sensors, TPS, IAC, spark plugs, wires, camshaft, timing belt, hoses, among many other things, but nothing got better. The car has got a good compression, around 160 pounds. I really do not know what else to do. Thanks in advance for any help you could give me.

I had a similar problem and the failure was the crankshaft axial play, as it was wrongly installed.

Luckily, my problem was finally solved. The camshaft has got a pin or cog that can be easily seen. In my eagerness to replace everything, I also changed the camshaft but, the one I bought, belonged to a Daewoo Tico and it was not exactly the same; this cog's position was the one that was slightly different. So I decided to buy a new Matiz camshaft and, when replacing it, the vehicle started working perfectly again. Hope I can help others with the same problem.
My really suck fuel, please what's the issues of that.

Hi ek het n proebleem my kar loop en ruk en dan vang hy spoed het nuwe filter en pomp vir vang asof die petrol nie reg deer kom nie
Had a similar problem, found the earth from the alternator not good and the car was 100% after I connected it. Seems the ECU needs full voltage from the alternator and can't work on battery power alone. Can try this...
I got a problem with my Matiz I changed fuel pump , done service , new spark plug leads , map sensor and throttle sensor but my car still jerks while driving if I wanna change to another gear and miss fires
I got a problem also when I am driving this car fuel system is not coming constantly, however when I push the fuel pedal the compression system is not working properly what is the case
I still have the problem; I've already replaced my camshaft and crankshaft, and my car still has extreme difficulty starting after driving for a few minutes. (P.S.: my AC and engine fan are also malfunctioning, but I don't know if it's related)
CommentPower loss Solved
Daewoo Matiz 2001 1000 miles
Once the engine warms up, my Matiz loses power considerably. I was told it might be the egr valve because some black smoke is also released when accelerating sharply. But oil is not consumed, and the engine has been recently serviced. Hope you can help me.

I found the problem; it was the ignition coil that was failing.

CommentEngine increasing above the maximum
Daewoo Matiz 2007 Engine 6780 miles
My engine oil keeps exceeding the maximum and affecting the start plugs and also becomes light. It means something is entering and diluting the engine oil but upon examination it shows that water is not entering the engine. Even if we reduced it within some few day it will increase again. My mechanic and other could not figure the problem i need a help, please.

CommentStart Problem
Daewoo Matiz 2000 300000 miles
I have a Daewoo Matiz which have a start problem. When engine gets heated after a drive of a few hours, it automatically gets off and difficult in starting again. And, then after 10-15 of cool down and try, it starts again. But this is rare, I have to leave hours for re-starting. I changed the filters, coils even replaced my coolant. But it's not working.
