Both ha. I bought a sedan new in 15 on purpose. Also I hated the face-lift sonics. Loved the round lights. Still do.

I came back specifically to reply. I still hate hatchbacks

Is this forum dead now?

Am I the only one with a 1.8 that has needed a clutch? :cautious:

2015 1.8 (obviously) 5 speed. 151K. No engine mods other than a K&N setup. My clutch is slipping a bit on 3rd and 4th. What are we recommending that will get another 151K? I see I can get a pressure plate throwout bearing and clutch disc from GMpartsdirect.

So the words "Oil" and "Pan" are too short for the search function. I split my oil pan a bit on a rock today in my 1.8 5spd. The pan looks easy enough to change, just need to drop the exhaust it appears? I can't find A. A replacement gasket. B. A torque spec for the hardware. Anyone have...

So I drop my car at the dealer ('15 sonic 1.8 5spd) to have the exhaust leak I mentioned looked it. Service guy said it was a cat, and they replaced it under warranty. I get halfway home and the CEL comes on again. Car seems loud still. Open the hood, I notice they didn't install my K&N setup at...

Does such a thing exist? I saw the stick on BMW M3 style lips on eBay but..

See sporadic posts years old with no answers.. Anyone rig up an actual Oil Pressure gauge on a 1.8? :( Guess I can tee off the original sender, but.. where is it?

Got this last week and put it on yesterday. These go over the existing grill and are held in with screws and toggle nuts. Manfucaturer recommends pulling the top of the bumper under the hood. No need. I threaded the screws with the nuts, fed them through the car's grill, and held them in place...

Probably asked dozens of times, but searching reveals nothing. What's this for on the passenger side in my sedan's trunk? And what's this latch for? :o

So my daily driver for over 11 years was a 93 Cavalier. Still have it in the garage. When my wife got a new car for work (Chevy Spark) I took over her rotbox E36 BMW. Nice car, when it worked. I have a 70 mile daily commute, and I'd rather play with my project cars then fix a daily. After...
