    Sonic done?

    Will GM cave to special interest pressure at the expense of the Sonic? IMO, the Sonic gets such good mileage, the benefit of a Bolt doesn't justify the $35k cost. GM to Increase Chevy Bolt Production This Year - The Drive

    May never buy another Chevy

    Went looking for a new Cruze 6M this weekend. The dealers in this area probably have 300 automatics in stock & three manuals. Some dealers will swarm all over you. Others won't even bother to contact you back. Of the nine new GMs I have bought in my life, the negotiation is never fun. But...

    Why buy Sonic?

    I luvvv my 2015 1.4L 6M. But if something ever happened to it why would I get another? For about the same price you can get an all new base Cruze with the next generation 1.4L. GM has to do something to get me interested again and pointless 2017 freshening is not it.

    Replacement drivers side floor mat

    Anybody have any suggestions for a reasonably priced replacement that will snap to the fasteners? I've already worn a hole in the flimsy factory one under the gas pedal.

    How does on-board MPG work?

    Does it calculate since last reset? Last 100 miles? Other? I reset at beginning of my last road trip. 400 miles later it read a whopping 47.3. However when I filled up, the actual MPG was quite a bit lower, though still impressive 45.2.

    Emission control light, WTH

    Problem started the last six months I owned my old Sonic (2012 1.8L 5M). Took to dealer several times. Told it was caused by "bad" gas, cracked air intake hose, etc. Don't think they ever really nailed down the real cause or fixed it. Now 5k miles on my new Sonic (2015 1.4L 6M) and the light...

    Problems with shifter

    My 2015 6MT, is not always smooth going into/coming out of 1st and 2nd. It periodically feels like it is rubbing on something. You can almost hear a quiet popping noise. Anybody else have this issue?

    Why six?

    After my first week I have noticed I no longer use 5th. I'm either in 6th or if I need more juice I go up to 4th. Wouldn't the same benefits such as higher MPG be accomplished with a simpler five in which 5th was geared at .61 like 6th is now?

    Difficultly finding 1.4L 6MT

    I was going to post this info under the appropriate thread but the idiots that set up this board make new posters go here first. I sure don't get that. Dealerships in my area have a million Sonics. However probably only 25% of those are MT and 25% of those are 1.4L. Of the remaining there was...

    Sonic MPG

    I was going to post this info under the appropriate thread but the idiots that set up this board make new posters go here first. I sure don't get that. Just traded 2012 for a 2015 and here are the numbers: 2012 Sonic LS (bought new) 1.8L 5MT. For three years I averaged: Combined (approx. 60%...

    Squeaky Sonic clutch

    I was going to post this info under the appropriate thread but the idiots that set up this board make new posters go here first. I sure don't get that. Anyway, I had the same problems as many others. Clutch squeaked since new (bought in 2012) and it got worse as temps increased. Took it to...
