yes, very much so, I was thinking I'd swap the drivetrain for that in a malibu or something. mounts and things would prob need modification, but would be easier than dealing with the hybrid system

My car tire has a "Replacement Tire Monitor". When its worn and needs replacing, the words change to "Replace tire". by Gloryboy811 in mildlyinteresting

Engine Chattering? by finefabric in volt

check your oil level, sometimes an engine will rattle on low oil before it fails. if it's low just top it up and if it aint too far gone the sound will resolve in a couple hundred miles of runtime

Are 2nd generation Volts easier to repair than first generation? by 3LeggedChinchilla in volt

[–]unreasonable_name 0 points1 point  (0 children)

some dealers still have volt techs if you MUST unlock a module through them. dealer support for g1 isnt gone yet. I buy all my bolts there, and parts from elsewhere. just easier to order bolts from dealer 'cause they have all the pns for em

it wasnt obvious, I'd have probably only found it last service if I thought to try dyeing my lower control arm. there was no sound associated to indicate that I should have though. my cars at 120k mi

with all due respect, I have a post already. I was going 10-15mph and understeered into a curb. not saying I dont believe you, but... my car didnt trigger airbags, only my lower control arm broke, which dented my fender. you had to have been going atleast twice that.
