LoL, thanks, that doesn't look bad at all. Thanks.

thanks Joe. Good to know that I'm not alone. The weird thing is the weather is fairly mild around here and it's garaged during my ownership. This is obviously past warranty. It's also going to be hard to find expert repair around here in a reasonable price range so I may just try to DIY...

Just noticed that the black "tape on the window frame, between the front and back door are starting to wrinkle up and folding. Since I'm thinking of selling, this will affect the value. Anyone ran into similar issue? I'm thinking of trying heat gun to make it shrink flat but I'm also...

Good luck! Seems you are having fun.

I do stuff like that professionally. It's easy to take data and also very easy to miss details and not accounting for things. Very often we get data that just doesn't match expectation or confirm with other past track record and take a lot effort to find out why. Get good repeatable data is...

I know the saying about not timing the market but it's hard to believe that price will not drastically come down for all cars next year. With reports of all the new cars sitting in lots waiting for a part or two, 100k of them by one report. I really believe there will be tons of deal next...

Well, what would you rather believe? Some random guy on the internet without much electrical knowledge or test equipment or properly conducted test?

I'm tempted to sell my 2016 then wait until next year for Bolt. However, seems the chip shortage will extend all the way until late 2023 or even 2024. Decisions...

I have a 2016 as well and tried the step from the manual, didn't work. I received the FOB mailed to me from the dealer where I bought the used Spark from and they told me they can program it for free if I drive there but it's a bit far so I opted to go to a dealer closer to me. I think they...

I'm very tempted to sell it now and get a 2023 Bolt next year.

Ok, this happened last summer too but I forgot about it. Today, I noticed my phone didn't ring or are playing any sound. Digging a bit into it I realized it's connected to my Spark's bluetooth. Weird, I thought, it's down in the garage right now with "ignition" off. I went into the garage...

Thanks, good to know about ABS. I do notice once a while if I go over a bump or a dip the brake will disengage for a brief second and I suspect that has to do with how ABS sense a locked wheel. So far it hasn't become a major issue.

I looked on Amazon, there are 315mhz and 433 mhz replacement sensors. Not sure which one Spark EV uses. I'll call up Discount Tire and see if they have any suggestions. I had thought these thing have a replacement battery and some warning would come on but I guess not. one thing just occur...

Took my 2016 into Discount to change out the two front tires 2 days ago. Right after, the right front TPM sensor wasn't responding so I took a u-turn right back and they had someone came out with a gadget to reset it. Seems all good, so I left. Later the same day, right after I got on the...

^^^ I went through the same thought process. Except they low ball me the first time @ $7900 then two weeks later @ $9700. I had figured that I can just drive my ICE car for a while but it's really nice to loan my other car to friends especially right now when rental car price is insane.
