Mitesh Patel 0 Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Hi everyone just brought a new 2014 spark 1LT manaul black color. I just love my car. :wub: The only thing i didnt like is the big shift. Dont know where and how to get short shift install. Or installing short shift voids my warranty.

stevesparky 20 Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Welcome. If it was me, I wouldn't take any chances on mods that may affect the Warranty. At least get a few miles before. Link to post Share on other sites

Mitesh Patel 0 Posted October 18, 2013 Author Share Posted October 18, 2013 i m thinking to install the key fob remote start from chevy dealer. as the sonic one says we can use cell phone 2 start with it for 5 yrs. Can anyone put light on it. thanks Link to post Share on other sites
Trancer07 30 Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Wouldn't a shorter shiftier be harder to use? Because the floor is nearly flat, the shifter needs to be somewhat longer. Link to post Share on other sites
Mitesh Patel 0 Posted October 22, 2013 Author Share Posted October 22, 2013 hi everyone I went to my dealer and asked about the remote start the way sonic have, so that i can use my smart phone to start my car in winter. But the dealer says that there is no remote start for Spark. http://www.gmaccessorieszone.com/Chevrolet/en-US/Sonic/2013/Accessories/Electronics/Remote%20Start/ Link to post Share on other sites

Mitesh Patel 0 Posted October 23, 2013 Author Share Posted October 23, 2013 so far as a new car A/C is working good Lets see in future how it works the only thing i need is remote start such as sonic has so that i can use my smartphone to start my car during winter and warm up. But the dealer says no you don't have that option. Only sonic has. http://www.gmaccesso...s/Remote Start/ Link to post Share on other sites

icepick 9 Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 To answer what the dealer is telling you, yes it's true, to a certain extent. The link you provided states for the "onstar" to work via a smart phone for starting your vehicle, yes, it has to be an option from the manufacturer. There are after market remote starting systems that have smart phone apps which can be installed into any type of vehicle. For smart phone remote starting, there is a monthly fee (as would be with the onstar as well). Link to post Share on other sites

Chevrolet is claiming that all 2014 onstar equiped vehicles have remote key fob for engine start. Link to post Share on other sites
icepick 9 Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 (edited) Remote start is an option, not a standard feature. Onstar is also offering free (ability to with installed remote start power lock feature) use of remote start/door locks feature via the smartphone app for five years on SELECT models. Not sure if spark is one of them. Edited November 13, 2013 by icepick Link to post Share on other sites

Chevrolet Customer Care 25 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Hi Mitesh, The remote start is an option. After looking up your VIN I can confirm that your Spark was not purchased with this option. I just sent an email to the address that you provided explaining what options you have for getting remote start installed on your Spark. Please check your email.
