2015 Chevrolet Sonic LTZ

The story

Got the car from a dealership on the Wisconsin/Illinois border with the intention of doing a build on because of a company called ZZP doing builds with the little 1.4 Turbo engine in these. Bought it with the intention of making it a fun daily driver. One thing I wish I knew before buying it is how many little things go wrong with these cars that cause so many major issues. For instance, all of the cooling system fittings are plastic and are known to Crack and fail with time. Along with the PCV system failing very often and involves epoxying the check valve inside the intake manifold shut and relocating it to a retrofitted external check valve.
