Bought this intending to do a PCV upgrade, never got to it. Brand new with hardware, stickers and gasket. Asking $50 shipped to the lower 48.

I totally forgot I had this in the basement, it was on the car for about 2500 miles. I didn't realize it had slid off in the box, but the worm clamp to the turbo IS included.. just not in the picture. In excellent condition, asking $140 shipped to the lower 48. Even comes in its original...

$120 shipped to the lower 48. http://www.sonicownersforum.com/forum/do-yourself-articles/22593-ls-ignition-coil-upgrade.html ^^^ This is the set I used in this DIY thread. They have about ~5000 miles on them, and I'm including: * Coils (genuine D585) + Bracket + bolts needed to attach to...

Sold my car before I could get a chance to install these. Brand new control arms, spherical TCAB's and new greaseable ball joints. Asking $300 shipped to the lower 48. I forget how much I paid, but it was a lot more than that. Only took out of the box to snap these pics, I just took pics of...

I have the set of all three official service manuals for '13 Sonic. Asking $120 shipped to the lower 48. Thousands of pages worth of info on all systems and mechanical aspects of the car.

Hi RacerX :) Given your willingness to bring to market intake manifolds, turbo manifolds and intakes.... how about some quality cooling system components? It would nice to see some products that: 1.) replace the weak cooling neck on the drivers side of the cylinder head 2.) Thermostat housing...

I figured I'd put this here vs. the 1.4T section. It's mostly me being annoyed... and ranting. Also before you say it, yes I could have gotten GM to do the water pump. I tend to not trust dealer mechanics much though. Well, over Christmas we took the car to Alabama and back. Had 62.5k when we...

Anyone have a dual aeroforce interceptor setup they want to unload? Prefer BLUE.

Hey everyone, this will be a work in progress/diary DIY. I will keep editing this first post until conclusion. I typically do my big forum posts like this, so sorry. I HOPE to at least have the proof-of-concept running/idling the car 11/18/2017. That all just really depends on the time I have...

Before I blow money on alldata for ONE thing, anyone able to post the wiring diagram for a 1.4T car (2013 if it matters...)? Would be much appreciated. Specifically I need PCM -> Coil Pack if it matters.

Hey everyone, *** Italianjoe1 is estimating ~$300 per set, would need a minmum of five people to be viable. Confirmed / Committed Buyers List: 1.) Gimpster 2.) Blue Moon Sonic 3.) ScarabEpic22* 4.) NDarkling 5.) *** Front Lower Control Arm Mounting Bolts/Nuts: FCAB Bolt: 11611833 x 2...

Long ago I was on this forum with a '12 1.4T M6 hatch. I drove it for a while, and eventually it was gone. The car always left a good impression on me though. I just picked up a '13 sedan 1.4T M6 as my new DD/winter beater. So hello again :) one owner car, 59k miles. These things are DIRT cheap...

Hey everyone! I haven't owned a Sonic in a while, but I was digging in my garage and found this. I bought it from ZZP and never got a chance to install it. I'm going to make someone a smoking deal on this thing to move. How's $170 shipped to the lower 48 sound? Here is the product from ZZP...

Well, today I took in the wifes car (2009 Toyota Yaris) and my Sonic and traded them in on an Audi A4 Quattro. Quite the change in cars I suppose, but we just had too many vehicles. I really liked the Sonic, but it just made more sense to have one "nice" car and the pickup truck. Wife isn't...

I think I've made it pretty apparent in many posts that I enjoy self-tuning my vehicles. I'm going to assume perhaps some of you do or might enjoy it too. So maybe we can keep a running thread until we have this ability. For those who don't cruise the HP Tuners forum, they added a boot loader...
