  XLNT Car - 1998 Oldsmobile Aurora
  By Oldsman - May 31 - 10:00 am

  Since I purchased my car, it has been excellent. My only copmplaint is that it is a little cramped for such a large, long car-- not much leg or head room for someone over 6 feet tall. Im 62", and I drive with the seat all the way back (and tilted all the way back), and the backrest tilted back at about 35 degrees. My (short) hair still brushes the roof. Because of that, my next car will probably be a Cadillac STS. But if youre altitudinally challenged, this is one great, smooth, good-looking and reliable car.

  Aurora - 1998 Oldsmobile Aurora
  By James Becker - February 3 - 2:00 am

  I have had to problems with this car that I felt Olds should of addressed with at least some assistance. Air conditions unit went out at 70000 miles dealer wanted $1200.00, A repair shop down the street charged me $595.00 The radiator is of poor design allowing road debre to collect in the fins. Almost impossible unit to clean of flush. Will have to replaced in 2003

  Best domestic car of its year - 1998 Oldsmobile Aurora
  By lumberjack_jeff - September 11 - 10:00 am

  I love this car. It looks great, handles nicely, is eminently comfortable and some of the features are very thoughful (like a passenger mirror that rotates down to look at the curb when placed in reverse - for parallel parking). My AC compressor failed, but other than that, no mechanical issues. GM killed the wrong make. I have a Buick too - the Olds is dramatically better.

  What, me worried? - 1998 Oldsmobile Aurora
  By Blurondo - July 2 - 10:00 am

  The car is over six years old, has 92,000 mi. and it still performs like it did when I got it in 2000. Great for city or highway driving; 18+ mpg in town and 23+ mpg on long trips. Rising gas prices have generated thoughts of switching to something else but I dont think I could stand the shock. Had to replace the directional switch, apparently not totally uncommon, for an uncommon price of $550.00.

  Beginning to show its age, but love it - 1998 Oldsmobile Aurora
  By Love2Drive - February 4 - 10:00 am

  Fun to drive, Affordable to the masses now after starting with a price tag of $38K in 98. Controls are ready for use with the "cockpit" styled interior. Starting to see more mechanical stuff go wrong now at 75K mi. Brakes, calipers, alternator, air conditioning, steering noise at low speed turns, Tried riding in the back seat for 1st time... why is the ceiling so low? So many of them on the road now, its hard to feel original...

  Head bolts 98 aurora - 1998 Oldsmobile Aurora
  By browneyez - October 24 - 11:50 am

  I love my 98 aurora. I have 225,000 miles and still looking good. I did blow a head gasket from broken water pump. When I replaced the gaskets I ran into a problem when the head bolts were stripped out. Do not buy the heli coils they will not work and you will waste a lot of money. the only kit I found to work is the Time Sert Big Serts. The cost is high but the kit is complete and now that the job is done my favorite car is back on the road running like a champ.

  1998 Olds Aurora - 1998 Oldsmobile Aurora
  By Claudia - February 4 - 2:40 am

  I couldnt be happier with my pearl white Aurora. I bought it 2 years old with only 5,000 miles on it. It was like brand new! It runs like a top and I have never had any mechanical problems with it. I did have a problem with the horn not honking, which turned out to be pinched wires under the airbag in the steering wheel. A bit costly (~$250) to fix, but worth it. It is fun to drive if you like speed and power. It feels like you are going slower than reality, so be careful not to get a ticket! :-)
