Vehicle

Dacia Spring

The small electric car, and the cheapest new electric vehicle sold in Europe. No engine, no emissions monitors, and a deliberately minimal thermal system — its battery has no active cooling, which is the fact that explains its charging behaviour in hot weather and in repeated rapid charging better than any code does.

Information, not instruction

CarGeek is a reference, not a service manual. Its pages are written from public sources and from what other people have found, never from a manufacturer's own service information, so they can be wrong or incomplete for your particular vehicle. Some of what they describe carries real risk: high voltage, fuel under pressure, stored energy, hot and moving parts.

Have anything you intend to act on checked by a trained person against the manufacturer's own procedure for your vehicle. Nothing here replaces that procedure.

What makes one worth reading:

  • The car — make, model, year and engine. The same fault behaves differently on each.
  • What you measured, not only what you replaced.
  • What actually fixed it — or that nothing did, which is worth knowing too.
