My spark took a hit and I was wondering if I can get the communities input. I'm assuming I would have to take the car into a GM service center to get it fixed and not any regular mechanic shop. When I checked underneath the car I didn't see any frame damage, battery appears to be fine, no leaks...

Good morning ladies/gents, I have a issue with my TPMS. Usually once in awhile the sensors on the tires wont show the tire pressure, if I drive around it comes back and resets it self. This time though it’s been a couple of days without it resetting it self. Only the rear left tire pressure is...

I might be going on a trip that might roughly last 2 1/2 weeks. I was wondering what the proper procedure is during this extended period time away. I heard of a "Transport Mode" for the Volt where the battery is placed in a prolong standby mode. I don't know if this feature is available for the...

I didn't know about the change in gear ratio, I did read about the battery being lighter. Its amazing how GM balanced each area out to keep the driving experience identical. The biggest reasons why I went with the Spark, the crazy amount of torque and Thermal Battery Management. From what I read...

2016 2LT electric blue with DCFC bought mine with 8,300 miles for $11,000. I was deciding on getting one without DCFC option but luckily this one popped up during my search and I had to jump on it. Located out of Los Angeles, oodles of DCFC and L2 charging areas. Kind of meh~ about the 2016...

I recently did all the bulbs I could get access to. Dome, rear trunk, brake, reverse and licence plate lights. The brake and reverse share the same bulb so I swapped the bulbs and it started hyper flashing, I didn't want to splice wires or do anything additional so I left the turn signals alone...

Thanks for the link Norton :D On the way to the dealership the Service Light decided to go away and everything came back to normal. I still took it in and nothing was wrong. They used the same exact tool.

Hello all, today while driving back home I received a "Service Tire Pressure Monitor" alert with a service light. When I checked the Tire Pressure Monitor on the DIC there are no numbers and only lines. Is this a easy fix or do I need to take it in to service? Thanks!

So you would just keep it plugged when ever you get a opportunity? How long does it usually take for the BMS to balance out? I know the app is free but needs OnStar to function, and the dealership told me after 6 months there is a monthly fee to use OnStar.

Today I got down to orange 1 bar, with 9 miles left, I didn't think it would drop that fast from 20%. Its been about 4 days since I last charged and I was able to get 97 miles. I have it plugged in on the 110v at 120, tomorrow I'm going to top off when I get to work and pick up to my Level 2...

I'm trying to see how much range it can squeeze out, I've seen some articles saying low 100s. I'm using the advance display on each side. I'll probably go back to my normal driving after I deplete this charge. Which brings me to my next question, when is the optimal percentage to charge at?

Thanks for the quick reply/answer Norton. Coming from geared cars its hard to shake some habits. When you say SW you mean software right? I think the max amount of green marks i got for regenerative braking in D while coming to a stop was 4-5, 3 being the average on flat roads. I find it hard to...

Hello all, first time EV owner here. I've been waiting for a long time to find a Spark with DCFC and it finally happened! 2016 2LT trim in Electric Blue with 8,300 miles. The 327 lb/ft of instant torque is so addicting. I'm getting use to driving more conservatively now and pulling some nice...
