    My 2011 Chevy Cruze 6 speed is making a whistling noise, at least that's the closest thing I can come up with regarding the sound. It sounds like blowing a whistle without the ball inside. It happens upon acceleration and when accelerating it gets higher in pitch and once it reaches 60+mph the...

    I have a 6 speed manual 2011 chevy cruze. I've had it for four years and its overall been a good car. We've replaced the clutch and a few other parts. I'm having a few problems but this specific one has to do with the car shutting off while idling when the ac is on. My rpms start dropping below...

    The best way I can describe the issue is that while driving my vehicle will stop accelerating, lose speed and the RPMs wille either maintain or struggle to maintain/increase and if I push the gas pedal to try and push through, white smoke will come out the back of the vehicle.

    Just bought this 2011 used Cruze with only 31,000 (well, actually it was a gift-should have known) and have had extreme cooling issues from day one.

  10. Gen1 1.4L Turbo
    Hello, I have a 2011 1.4 that needs a new head gasket. I found a short block from a 2012 1.4 for a great price. Doing some research online, it seems like they might not be compatible. Does anyone know the difference if any? Will it work?

    Hello Team, I have a 2011 Chevy Cruze (1.8L) with 105k miles. My car was affected by a faulty thermostat that caused it to overheat while idling and/or running the air conditioner; when I was moving or turned on the heat, the temp gauge would drop back to normal levels. About a couple months...

    So last week my check engine light came on. When I looked up the code, I got P0328 the knock sensor. Has anyone got this code before, is it a big job. I just got the intake manifold replace, so I'm hoping for a cheap fix.

    Bought the Cruze 2 years ago and have been doing many repairs myself, from loss of power, to a coolant water outlet leak and broken HVAC defrost mode, of which a lot this forum helped me accomplish. Therefore I would like to be a member and share my experiences in return.
