    Sonic totalled today

    Not one, but TWO reckless drivers ran into our 2013 LT turbo sedan today while my wife and daughter were, quite legally, sitting at a red light waiting to turn right. Nearly every air bag popped, the car spun just over 180 degrees and jumped a curb sideways. They hit it so hard it may have...

    30k oil change on a 2013 1.4L

    My wife drives a 2013 Sonic LT Sedan with a few hundred miles short of 30k on it. OK, she does not drive much... It was due for its "every 5k" oil change and the weather forecast said today was the day. I use 5W30 full synthetic Dexos 2 oil and average cost filters from rock Auto and have not...

    Working from Home vs. Car Values

    First, I'm in MI. We have been restricted for quite some time. Also, I work for a local college that is run by a few real lefties. I haven't been to my office in nearly 4 months and I'm not allowed to go back. When Fall starts, I can go to teach certain small classes, but I can't hold my office...

    EVAP Solenoid versus PVC Fix V3 kit

    2013 LT Sedan with 24k miles, 1.4L turbo, automatic. Was thinking of doing the V3 PCV kit - but it runs really well, except for a ticking solenoid under acceleration. No CEL. I have a new evap solenoid, wondering if I should do it all at once, re-use the old solenoid, etc. Could a bad or going...

    Pressure Sender Connector?

    The connector on the oil pressure sender on my 2013 1.4 turbo seems very loose. Only 23k miles. Also, I've been getting some odd vibrations from behind the dash - sounds like in the area of the ABS unit on take-off. When I push on the connector, even with no key in the car, the ABS unit, or...

    Another Heater Core Rattle?

    I've had three Sonic and, eventually they all do this. The current offender is the 2013 LT Turbo Sedan with only 23k miles on it. There is just enough air that has worked its way into the heater core that the pipes rattle upon acceleration when they are full of air. It is most noticeable on...

    Small Rattle on Takeoff

    Fooled with several things this week trying to diagnose/eliminate a small rattle on takeoff on our 2013 LT turbo sedan with only 22k miles. Trans fluid was low (again) but that didn't really change my rattle. Checked wheel covers on the steelies with snows, but that didn't do anything either...

    Trans Fluid Level

    OK, I've had three of these Sonics, all with the 6 speed auto. So, I'd like to think I know what I am doing... My 2013 turbo LT sedan has only 22k miles and that is the current issue. This is the same car that the dealer service dept had the transmission out of at 6k to replace a seal that was...

    2015 versus 2012 Advice?

    I have the opportunity to buy a 2015 1.8L sedan with 33k miles. I had a 2012 1.8L sedan that I traded off a while ago. Question: Have any of the early issues been resolved on the 2015's? I'm referring to intake tube, thermostat housings, cracked coolant tanks, water pump leaks, poor rear...

    Snow Setup and TPMS

    I got some 15 inch steel wheels on Amazon, new valve stems, new lugs, and four never-mounted Blizzaks (shady deal on CL locally but they work) and new plastic hubcaps a Walmart... Put them together myself and had Sam's Club do a one-time balance on them ($15 for all four.) $500 total - not too...

    OK - I 'm looking for a set of snows, but the Sonic bolt pattern is not standard. found a set of steel 15 inch wheels locally with 215/65/15 snows that were used a few months on a Chevy Cruze.

    Surge at Idle when Cold

    2013 LT turbo sedan, automatic, ONLY 18k miles. Noticing some rhythmic surging at idle, normally red lights during warm up. Seems to be bad when it is cold outside, then goes away when the engine is warmed up. Is it time for a new PCV/manifold already? Was hoping I could make it till spring...
