ah, ok thanks! Knowing what it is helped me search. I see it's not a "bracket" really after all, and has a gasket, so I especially won't remove it if I can work around it.

There are many YT videos for how to replace the thermostat housing for code P0597, but none of the engines have this part in the way, so no videos show whether to work around it or to remove it: It seems to be plastic, has a wire connection going to it, and that black plastic pipe runs to it...

After work the outside air temperature is often cooler than in my car. I sometimes use the vents with the fan, not the AC, to pull the cooler outside air in. But I notice the vent air is much warmer than outside, even with my temperature control turned all the way cold. At first I figured...

I just did my first oil change on my Sonic. 1 year, 2% oil life remaining, 7569 miles. Of the 6 cars I've owned, it was the easiest oil change I've done. The 1.8L has the filter in front and to the right of the engine. I didn't have a 24mm socket, but found 15/16" fit like a glove. I had...

For a few years I had a sticker on my old car that said "MUNI". (see pic) That sticker was ok for my old Escort, but not for my Sonic. I was thinking about a custom license plate. I'm curious... without googling anything, if you were driving and saw a car with that sticker or a "MUNI"...

People on forums tend to write about the problems they've had and it scares me. Anyone out there have no problems since they got their Sonic? (or only something small like a rattle noise that was solved by tightening a bolt) I've had no problems. 2 weeks old.

My old car had regular old keys and I had a few extras made. At different times I've kept one in my wallet, hidden under my car, and in my backpack when I was packing light. My Sonic key blade is different. Can key grinders copy these? Will the alarm sound if I don't unlock with the fob? Then...
