Michelin rear blade is exact fit and the only blade so far that does the full sweep. I've went through several blades to find this out
-
I have a 2013 2lt and I put a full size tire mounted on stock aluminum rim in the space for the spare. Fit just fine it may raise the cardboard and carpet up slightly not enough to notice though
-
Yes picked mine up yesterday they said they had to recalibrate the update. All is good and no charge!
-
Mine did the same thing. I just got it back from the dealer yesterday. They said they had to recalibrate the update. It's fixed know and back to normal. They should make it right with no cost to you
-
Nope I haven't done anything lately. From the research I have done it is caused by installing the wrong update for the recall for mylink. I only drive the car once every week or two my better half runs the wheels off it though and she find the notice it. I could of swore everything worked fine that sat morn then quit working half way through are trip, I'm going to talk to my service manager to get it looked into and will keep you posted when I do
-
My 2013 2 lt with manual trans started this yesterday. Can't control the mylink from the steering wheel controls no outside temperature reading on the radio and when I backup it says service back up camera which it doesn't have. Recall was done several months ago for the radio no problems til just now. Any fixes yet anyone heard? I plan on taking it in to see what they say

31000 miles,four oil changes which I get about 8000 miles in a change 1 cabin air set of tires my fault as I never rotated, recalls done and that's it. 43 mpg lifetime live this little car!

Right and I've seen allot of salvage titles that shouldn't of been salvaged.
-
Yes pretty simple. Too much hp for the drivetrain somethings gotta give sooner or later!
-
Yeah really just looking long term if it was worth it. I don't care much bout speed plenty fast for me I tend to drive conservative to see the best fuel milage I can get. Will prob just stay with replacement filters then.
-
I have to say that being this is my first winter in the spark it is the best car I've ever owned for having the greatest heater. The combo between the heater and heated seats is excellent. It warms up fast and keeps you warm!
-
Yeah old classics were well built and simple!
-
Just wonder if anyone has invested in a K & N air filter for the spark and thier results??? I know there around 45 bucks just wonder if it would be worth it?
-
I owe Greg E an apology. I just changed the oil for the second time in my 13 and found out when I had the hood open checking things out with the engine running and the ac compressor does run when you have it on defrost without the ac button on,
-
Oh forgot to mention my first car was a 1971 Pontiac lemans sport which I have had for 35 years now
-
Keep us posted

I agree with jimmy I have a 5 speed and it needs another gear/overdrive. At 70 mph it's running over 3000 rpm

Senyah you are 100 percent correct I permed two geo metros and they were great cars. I don't give a darn what consumer reports or anyone else says about a car I drive.i bought and drive a spark because they are a great little fuel efficient car! I love all the features my 2lt has even heated seats! My metro s never had nor was all the features available back then on those. The spark gets beat up by CR and the eps ratings for fuel milage. I have only had one tank I've gotten less than 40 mpg and my most recent jaunt I went round trip to Niagra falls Canada and averaged 47 mpg driving the speed limit which was 65-70 mph. They could not be more wrong! Plus they never asked me to participate in any suvey!

Best car 1986 Chevrolet Caprice classic 4.3 girl injected v-6 200k with only regular maitenence items replaced lost it in a divorce. Worst car 1978 ford pinto cam went out at 50k and a bunch of little stuff Inhearited it when I got married(same women cars were ten years apart from ownership)
-
I love small manual cars that get great fuel economy and you cannot beat a spark for options in a small car. It has been great and I don't regret buying it! Great value!
-
Great info jibb do you remember the sticker price? I see 2016's on eBay I wonder if they are in stock or just pre selling?
-
Yeah kinda hard to imagine $200 filter. Like 1000 percent markup????
-
Go to rockauto.com they have ac Delco filters for the spark and the last time I bought them they were less than 5 bucks plus shipping. If you buy something else greatly reduces shipping. I buy several at a time so I have them in stock a greatly reduces cost I did my first oil change on mine a while ago and it took like 4 1/2 quarts to bring it up where it's Spose to be on stick. 200 bucks for a filter is laughable!
Rear wiper size?

Michelin 12 inch with roc loc 2 is the only blade I have found that works correctly
