Re: Can I flat tow 2016 Spark EV?

Right, there's an ATF pump and cooler for the Drive Unit , for a reason.

You should spring for the dolly and only spin the back wheels.

Re: New wheels saving 34lbs

It's less 'Unsprung' weight, so theoretically there may be better performance on rough roads when at the limit of speed and traction...
Racer Boi stuff. :lol:

But as for better acceleration.... Good luck trying to measure that... 8-)

Re: Range and battery health for used Spark EV

With warmer weather here, I suspect all this GOM numbers will be on the rise. But they still depend on how the car was driven the last few times. I know this isn't a definitive answer. Ideally if you could do a ~50 mile test drive each one starting out with it topped up, that would tell you for sure...

Re: California HOV Sticker Removal

Use both. Slowly peel off the sticker while heating the area near where you are trying to begin. Pull vertically slowly . Try not to heat the parts already released. Any remaining adhesive should be removed with an adhesive remover. I have no experience with Goo Gone. 3M sells an 'Adhesive Remover' ...

Re: Battery warranty advice for 2014 Spark

I'm only getting 40-42 miles of range during the winter .... Winter has been horrible lately. Depending on where you live,,, hang in there. Spring is on the way! As they say, "It gets better!". How about on my Bolt, I saw on the app: 100% SOC, 129 miles range. This is after a few days of ...

Re: SPAM posts Taking Over SparkEV Forum

That’s it, that’s the news. And unless the mods can somehow fix this, it’s not worth getting the stream of email notifications. Pawl, I sold my Spark EV. Somehow I became one of the moderators. (Looks good on a resume! :roll: ) Would you like to help delete and block the spammy spammers? I think I ...

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

.... but one thing I should note is that it has a "Lemon Law Buyback" branding on the title from its time in California. The story I was given was it had a door rattle that GM fixed but the first owner still refused the fix and they had to buy it back. I've had zero issues with the car an...

Re: California HOV Sticker Removal

... I would want to SAFELY remove the stickers from my car ... I'm now debating between a hair dryer and Go-Gone. Thank you for any advice. Kind of late,,, sorry. You need the hair dryer to warm up the decal and adhesive. A finger nail to get it started, then patience pulling it slowly at 90° to th...
