Mine was caused by a sticky door lock actuator. The cold can make it worse. You can try lubricating the actuator.

I completely agree, Spark's weight and good tires make a difference, and throttle control really shows the advantage of manuals in those conditions

Absolutely! That instant torque can be a double-edged sword in the snow. Did you have to dig out, or did you manage to get free eventually?

I think you’re on the right track with the pressure bleeder, so I’d recommend continuing with both the ABS and hydraulic bleed processes. If the mushy feel persists, you can check for any underlying issues with the brake components themselves.

To pair the new fob, turn on the ignition with the master fob inside and press the lock button on the new fob a few times..

I just remembered getting stuck in a snow drift last winter and having to try multiple times to get free, carefully shifting between reverse and drive. On the final attempt, I spun the wheels over some wood for traction until I smelled burning rubber. Once out, the “reduced propulsion” and...

Thanks. I’ll suggest he gets an alignment to check if the rear suspension's camber is within spec.

Welcome to the world of Spark EV buddy! I don’t have experience with sway bar kits, but I recommend checking local shops for options.

So, my friend has this 2015 manual transmission Spark that he tows behind his Class C RV. He bought it about six months ago, and it’s got around 60,000 miles on it. The other day, he’s looking at it from behind and notices the top of the back tires are tilting inward, like they’re trying to do...

Uhmmm I faced the same with my car where the coil spring slipped and caused a tire blowout. After replacing the strut and spring, I learned that some vehicles use a spring seat or retainer to keep the spring in place. If yours doesn’t have visible clamps, it might rely on the design of the strut...

You might want to look into lightweight alloy wheels for better performance and style. Brands like Enkei, OZ Racing, and Volk Racing have great options.

Hey, so you generally can't use smaller wheels for bigger brakes since larger brakes often require more space, so you'll need to stick with wheels that fit the brake size.

Check out RockAuto or CarParts, they usually have full sets. If not, try a local junkyard.

I think 18-inch wheels are probably too big for the Spark. You might end up dealing with rubbing issues, especially when turning. I checked one out at the auto show, and the wheel wells don’t look like they can accommodate such large wheels without problems.. If you're considering upgrades...
