Consumer Review Video - 2006 Chevrolet Monte Carlo LT 3.9L V6

Car Displayed: 2006 Chevrolet Monte Carlo LT 3.9L V6

The 2006 Chevrolet Monte Carlo LT is a difficult car to maintain. The entire bulb housing needs to be removed to access all of the headlights, itself secured by many different types of fasteners. The non-LED center brake light also has convoluted access, which won’t allow for reliable bulb changes when necessary. Changing the battery may prove to be a problem, as accessing its cramped location deep in the engine bay will prove troublesome.

However, the 2006 Chevrolet Monte Carlo LT does have its high points. The spare tire and jack kit are packaged together, allowing for reliable access in the event of a flat. Monitoring the transmission fluid levels shouldn’t be a problem as the dipstick is quick to remove and easy to read. The engine air filter is also easy to access, and it doesn’t require any tools to disengage the filter housing.
