This morning I started my automatic Sonic using the remote start. I came out to go to work about two minutes later. My doors would not unlock at all. Thinking it was the remote batteries, I grabbed the other remote. It would not unlock the doors either. I ended up having to manually unlock the...

How does the Sonic compare to the competition? Competition meaning similar body style and price. What made you pick the Sonic over competitors? I'll start... I was looking at the following cars, but picked the sonic because I really couldn't find one thing I disliked about it. I still can't...

My black sonic has around 1700 miles on it. I was getting about 26MPG 30%HWY/70%CITY. I changed the oil around 1500mi. Ever since, I have been getting only around 23-24MPG. Could new oil be causing a lower MPG than before? I'm using Mobil 1 full-syn, so it's a good oil. Could the change to cold...

Where can I find some Sonic apparel/clothing? Sure, Chevy shirts are easy to find, but I'm having trouble locating Sonic stuff.

I'm fairly new to driving a manual. In fact, I've never actually owned one myself. I've only ever driven an old VW Beetle and a BMW 3-series. I can definitely get from point A to point B, but not very smoothly. My biggest problem is starting from a complete stop. I noticed that sometimes I...

Can someone inform me of the difference between the LT and LTZ? I am looking at a car that is marked LTZ on the hatch, but LT on the sticker. It does not have the Turbo engine, leather steering wheel, sunroof, or heated seats. I believe these features are commonly on the LTZ. I wonder why this...

I believe I may have overfilled my 1.8L hatch on the first oil change. I drove the car for about 5 minutes to warm it up, let it sit for about 5, then started the oil change. I made sure to remove the oil cap. I removed the oil pan plug and started the drain process. While the oil was draining...

I was changing my oil yesterday (easy task on this car, but the car being so low to the ground made for tight quarters) and was thinking... How does one go about replacing the serpentine belt? It looks like a royal PITA. There is no room for anything and almost everything is covered up. Has...

I've been seeing more and more new Sonics in Columbia, MO. Anyone on here?

Has anyone noticed a squeak under their passenger seat? It only happens when someone is sitting. It's only really noticeable when driving slowly in a parking lot and with the radio off. It also seems to happen mostly when making a turn or something that causes the passenger to slightly move in...

Just rolled over to 1000 miles today on my '13 1.8 Auto LT hatch! Haven't had any problems at all. Gas mileage seems to be getting better and better. On my last Amazon prime order, I ordered an AC Delco oil filter to prepare for the first oil change. I'm thinking of doing the first oil change...

Has anyone found a trunk/cargo mat that works with the hatchback? I worry about the carpet getting messed up. Heavier things also seem to slide around on the carpet.

I've noticed a little glitch with MyLink radio sometimes. The only thing I ever use it for is listening to satellite radio. Usually I'll be listening to my station, turn off the radio, put the car in park, turn of the ignition, then exit the vehicle. When I return to the car, start the ignition...

Has anyone looked at/driven a Spark? I test drove one the other day and it's a pretty neat car and drives decently for such a tiny car. My other half is thinking of getting one for a "bopping around town" car. It kinda reminded me of a Sonic Jr.

Just got 35% tint on my doors and 20% on the back hatch. I almost thought about getting 20% done all over, but 35% has always been dark enough for me. Also, if I move to a state that has tint inspections, I'd hate to have to remove it. What tint do you guys have? The guy asked me if I wanted a...

Maybe I'm blind, but I'm having trouble finding the transmission dipstick. Any pictures or hints? I've got the 1.8L.

Are the LTZ models really hard to find or something? My local dealer only had one in stock, but it was a color I disliked. Dealers in large cities in my state only have like one or two in stock. The LS, LT, and RS models seem much more prevalent. I originally wanted an LTZ for the leather...

Just bought a new 2013 Sonic LT hatch in metallic black. I originally wanted a manual, but they only had one on the lot and it was white. I couldn't find a black hatch with a manual in a 200 mile radius, so I went ahead and bought the auto. I'm pretty pleased. It's a lot better than the 2005...
