That definitely helps. Many thanks.

It's been asked before but I've never seen a thread that stays on topic beyond one "answer" and it's usually not a "straight answer". I've read lots of suggestions about snow tires, then storm stories, then tangential forays into stories about entirely different makes and models and how much someone misses their old whatever... Surely someone has put chains, cables, or snow socks on their Spark over the past 6 years since it's release in the states. Surely there is someone who has found something tht fits and won't cause damage. Thanks.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words...

I'm looking to find an OBD2 scanner for my 2014 Chevy Spark that can read codes for the engine, the transmission, and electronics.

Was this ever resolved?

Returned for refund.

I used the A/C recently when it got in the upper 80's, certainly nothing close to the 100+ temps that will arrive in a few months, and it was not acceptable. I think the thing to do is wait till the temperature is a 100+ before you take anyone from the dealership on a test ride. When you do, make sure the windows stay rolled up and drive until the arrogant little bugger in the passenger seat starts to experience heat stroke, then drop him off back at the dealership in time for them to call 911. That will get their attention.

It appears that it's repairable for $250.00. Thanks for the replies, I thought I was in for a lot more.

There's no damage to the bead or anything else structurally, it's just cosmetic. I'm wondering if anyone has had to buy a single OEM rim for the 2014 1LT and how much it cost? I can't seem to find any online. I did read that body shops can repair rims. Thanks in advance.

Why is a rim with a +40mm offset listed as compatible with my Spark?

Are you trying to discourage someone else from buying this from me by saying, "You can just to do it yourself, look at me, that's what I did."?

As stated it's what I paid. Order it from me or them, the price is the same. I'll just return it for a refund. I hate this kind of nonsense.

So does that mean you are interested? I'm confused.

There is a difference between the color of the 2013 faceplate and the 2014 body color as noted above. In the interest of "full disclosure" I would not recommend a 2014 owner buying this faceplate. I do hope a 2013 owner will buy this.

I had a confusing conversation with the parts guy at a dealership wherein he said that the part number for 2013 was no longer valid and he couldn't find it in the system either. That's what prompted me to find the color codes on my own. Unfortunately, the results were not accurate. As an aside, slight though the difference my appear, I do like the vivid, almost neon, "Lime" green much better than the more earthy "Jalapeno".

I'm not sure what you're referring to? The one I ordered is for the MyLink touchscreen. My car is a 2014, this faceplate is for the 2013.

I ordered the wrong faceplate for my 2014 and am selling it for exactly what I payed. I took it out of the box once to eyeball it. PM me and we can work out the PayPal details. 2013 Spark Center Console Trim Kit, Jalapeno, UF7 Radio (95131554):

In the end I payed $97.00 above Invoice / $766.00 below MSRP for my "Lime" green CVT Spark.

My buddy and I hiked to Switzer Falls yesterday, rock hopping down the stream with the requisite slips into the water and missteps on the muddy banks, and was glad I bought the all weather mats. Unfortunately, I paid "dealer cost" which was still more than I would have paid from Amazon or shopchevyparts.com

My green faceplate showed up last night and even in the dim light of the car park it didn't look like a match. This morning I looked at it in the sunlight and confirmed the colors do not match. The green faceplate I ordered is a slightly less vivid shade of green than the 2014; a bit darker, more earthy than neon or day-glo. Even though the color code reference indicates they are the same (see attached), the shade of green between 2013 and 2014 are slightly different. Even taking into consideration the color variations of different runs, the dissimilarity is clearly apparent.

After a day driving (and hiking) in the mountains alternating between coasting in neutral then in gear and, in either case, the instantaneous mpg readout indicating 99mpg I'm satisfied to not have to shift to neutral. Still don't understand the difference in rpm.

Cool. I'm headed to the mountains again and will have an opportunity to check this out. Thanks.

Precisely. So why the headlines about the shots being of a 2015 Spark?
