My one year old Sparky has developed a slow leak in a front tire (we came back from some time away and it was very low; I filled it and after a week it's lost about 10 psi). We are very low mileage drivers (although I confess I like to take advantage of the Spark's torque when I can ;)) so I...

It was nice to get into the car this morning and see fully-charged range above 70 miles. Hoping it gets back above 80 soon. :) OTOH, the windshield was covered in pollen, and my first thought was "better clean it off next time I'm at a gas station." :oops:

A friend was in the market for a new car for a daily commute and I was trying to convince him that a spark would be perfect for him-- the savings in gas would probably pay for the lease-- but he was concerned about range. It got me thinking about how I would describe the range of spark to...

So with predictions of another snowpocalypse and warnings to expect power outages, I figure someone cleverer than I has figured what to do with the large battery parked in my garage in the event of a power outage (assuming I don't plan to drive anywhere, but don't want to drain the battery...

So maybe this is a silly question but every so often the Spark will beep at me and I am not sure why. Is there some list somewhere of the various alerts and what triggers them?

So I know the Spark has a 12v battery and it looks from the owners manual as though it can get a jump start if necessary. So I am wondering 1) are there times when a jump start would come in handy? and 2) can it give a jump start? (and if yes, then is there anything that can be done to...

This is pretty small thing but I am curious. For the first couple months I had my Spark, whenever I saw on my dashboard the icon for the daytime running lights I would assume my headlights were on, and vice-versa. I guess to me, the icon with the longer rays coming from a bulb seems naturally...

I have seen relatively little about sport mode. Can anyone explain what it does (either technically, or practically), how it affects range, if/when they use it, etc?
