Not sure what suspension I have

[Mr_Silvertooth]

I bought a CPO 2014 Sonic Hatchback LT. It came with 1.4 turbo 6 speed manual Chevy mylink driver confidence package. My question is how do I know what suspension I have? Is it possible that previous owner installed RS suspension and If so how do I tell?

The LT was also available with the 6sp.

I THINK the only difference is the spring height. Besides that, same shocks & struts.... there's no difference in how they connect to the car...

Anti roll bar up front might be bigger in an RS...I'm not sure on that... but no difference in where or how it connects to frame/car

Shocks and struts are different AFAIK. The only outward indicator would be overall ride height. OP could potentially post a picture of the car on level ground.

 

[carsNskis]

RS has "fast reacting" front struts, same rear shocks and the ride height is 5mm lower than other trims (spring height).

Adding the GM Performance Suspension to an RS lowers another 5mm (front and rear springs) and replaces rear shocks

So adding the RS suspension to another trim would yield a 5mm drop

No roll bar change that I'm aware of but would be nice

old post i know, but if you look at your passenger side motor mount and its aluminum you have sport, if its black steel you dont. sounds funny i know but if you look up the parts on the gm site you will see the two options.
