    Range and battery health for used Spark EV

    The guessometer is pretty much useless for determining battery health. You could see numbers anywhere from 45 mi to 85 mi on a full charge and still have no idea. Recent driving style has a huge effect. You can get a gross approximation by using two GOM readings and the kWh used since last full...

    Toyo Extensa HP II and rear tire info needed

    Oh, bummer. Did you check here? I bought them a year ago and posted several times about them (as have others). Also, Kumho Solus TA31's have come up as a possibility.

    GM all weather floormats in the Spark EV (Part 95259816)

    These may be the only alternative for an all-weather out-of-the-box fit. If you go to Lloyd's website, you'll see that they actually have two different patterns/styles to choose from: https://www.lloydmatsstore.com/ That being said, I do see an issue with these. There's no "retaining wall"...

    Outdoor Wifi Smart Plug with 120 Volt EVSE

    Maybe you're already doing this or maybe it's already been suggested (can't quite be sure from the lengthy descriptions), but there's a simpler way to use the delayed departure time feature that requires no calculations, and works the same every time so no thought is needed: Just pick a future...

    How i changed my transaxle fluid

    Very clever, ThomasBrown. You're a spammer all right. You actually copied and pasted someone else's post so it would look real, then, right in the middle of a sentence, you added a spam link.

    Charge door switch replacement

    Thanks again, Infinion for the truly helpful response. I always love hearing from you. It's pretty involved, so not sure when (or whether) I'll tackle this myself. It's too bad, a good while ago, someone on here was getting rid of a factory service manual. I DM'ed him but never got a reply. I...

    California HOV Sticker Removal

    I have used Goo Gone and also WD40. Both helped and did not damage the paint. Regardless, test them on an inconspicuous area (wheel-well, wraparound over an edge, etc.) just in case, BEFORE you risk damaging your paint This may be true, but I highly recommend against using a heat gun. It may...

    Toyo Extensa HP II and rear tire info needed

    Hmm, I couldn't help notice that the warranty for the Toyo Extensa HP II is only 45k mi, compared to the 65 or 70k you typically see on low rolling resistance tires. Makes me wonder if your efficiency might be better with another choice. I recently installed General Altimax RT43, available in...

    Wiper Blade Compatibility?

    Also, Amazon doesn't seem to be a viable choice any more. OEMs from gmpartsdirect.com do have pretty expensive shipping. Has anyone ever tried these?: ACDelco 8-92415 Windshield Wiper Blade for 2015 Chevrolet Spark EV Front Left (Driver) ACDelco 8-91515 Windshield Wiper Blade for 2015...

    Wiper Blade Compatibility?

    I know it's been a while, so don't know if you'll see this, but exactly what inserts did you use?

    Differences between 14/15/16 model years - ASIDES from battery?

    I know you already got the car (congrats!!), but I thought I'd point out, for the SparK EV, the trim levels LT1 and LT2 are the only ones available. There is no "base model", or, if you like, the LT1 is the base model. And yes, they're nearly identical except for a leather wrapped steering...

    Effect of Yokohama S. Drive tires on range

    If you really want to compare, I think you'd have to do a lot more to eliminate variables. Variations in speed due to traffic would far overshadow any other variable and make comparison impossible. You'd really have to do something like this: Highway travel at night. Pick a fixed path. Drive...

    Charge door switch replacement

    Lately, I've noticed that if I accidentally leave the charge door open, I no longer get the "Charge Door Open" warning. Is there anything besides a bad switch that can cause this? If it is the switch, how do you access and change it? Thanks:)

    Request for comment: ICED, Leafed, Leaf*cker

    So there's a big shopping mall near me on Long Island with six free level 2 chargers (three stations, two per station). The terms are: charge for free, but limited to two hours. Usually, most of the chargers are available, so, get a quick top-off while shopping, or watching a movie at the...

    Bolt "Fire Sale!"

    Oh, it's also worth noting that you can't rollover to a Roth if your adjusted gross income is $144,000 or above for single filers, $214,000 or above for married filers.

    Differences between 14/15/16 model years - ASIDES from battery?

    You know, I absolutely love my 2015 LT2, warts and all. I will say though, The Chevy Mylink is VERY disappointing. Shame on Chevy for never updating it. I was looking forward to "thousands of apps" which never materialized. Just four (do they even work?) I bought my car in New Jersey. I had a...

    California HOV Sticker Removal

    I used both Goo Gone and WD40 and a credit card (New York HOV stickers). It took me more than 45 minutes to remove one small sticker. I gave up after one. I didn't know about using a hair dryer at the time. I'll try again for the rest. Oh, use an expired credit card. My card was destroyed in...
