Anyone had issues with codes p0236 and p0238? It says Turbocharger sensor A. It’s a 2017 Cruze 1.4. I drove it from St.Louis to Lake of the Ozarks about a 3 hour drive today. The car was sluggish and would cut out on acceleration pretty bad and it made a light whistling noise. Anyone know if that is just a sensor issue or possibly a bad turbo?

I thought that was probably the problem, I was hoping it was a boost sensor or something 😕

I would definitely try to test your boost sensor before throwing a new turbo at it. 30 bucks compared to 600 is a lot to waste for a boost sensor code.

I was wondering if those codes were related to the boost sensor.. I couldn’t find much on the internet about them.

I would definitely boost test first. Might just be a loose charge pipe that the sensor is plugged into also
