Re: Battery warranty advice for 2014 Spark

I'm only getting 40-42 miles of range during the winter now on my 2016 Spark EV. Any way to know if that's degraded enough to have warranty coverage without using the apps/accessories mentioned here? I do have almost 2 years left on the warranty. But my daily commute leaves me with only 10 miles to...

Re: Thinking of selling in the new year...

I thought that might be the case, and of course it makes perfect sense :-).

Re: Thinking of selling in the new year...

Watching this thread. I'm in a similar situation. I have a deposit with the dealer on a 2023 Bolt EUV yet to be built, and won't have room in the garage when it arrives. The Equinox EV is just too big, and I'm too old to wait for a more reasonably sized Ultium successor to it. There are a couple of...

Thinking of selling in the new year...

This is a bit premature, but it's on my mind so I figured I'd put it out there. Apologies if this is inappropriate, but it looks like others have posted "FOR SALE" threads in the past at least :-). TL;DR: I'm interested in selling my 2014 Spark EV sometime in the spring for its trade-in va...

Re: Reprogram BMS to use full cell capacity of 2014 LFP pack

..That said, I'm still interested in higher-capacity LFP cells to do an upgrade someday ;-). Are you going to wait for the original A123 LFP pack to degrade to an unusable state? You may be waiting a long time! Mine is going strong at 98k miles! 8-) I'm very encouraged by your experience, that's fo...

Re: Reprogram BMS to use full cell capacity of 2014 LFP pack

Okay, I came across this slightly older thread: https://mychevysparkev.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=9213 And it seems maybe a bulk of the reserved capacity is at the bottom rather than the top (fully charged is 98% actual?). I guess if that's true there isn't much or really anything to "unlock&quo...

Re: Reprogram BMS to use full cell capacity of 2014 LFP pack

I can create a new topic if it makes more sense, but I figured I'd piggyback off of this old one to start. My questions are in the same vein, and I'm also curious what upgraded cells two20142lts found back in 2021 ;-). I recently purchased a 2014 Spark EV that is running well but has definitely seen...
