  1. Gen1 1.4L Turbo
    Hello everyone I happen to find the site trying to research my problem. I’m hoping someone has the solution. I bought a new turbocharger after driving the car a good distance The car began to lose power I couldn’t go uphill. Blue smoke was coming from the passenger engine side. Smelled oil...
  2. Gen1 1.4L Turbo
    Well I just got my turbo back on and all back together to find out the coolant return line is leaking. I didn't replace this even though I had a new line I could get it unattached from the snap on cooling line fitting thing. Do these come apart? What's the best way? Can I just replace these...
  3. Gen1 Diesel How-To & DIY Library
    Recently had one of these lines develop a hairline crack in the flex portion. They are coolant lines made of plastic....ridiculous. Great thing about them is they are quick disconnect, so a small pick to grab the wire lock, pull away from the hose, line pops right off. Outlet oil cooler...

    Anybody run anything different then the stock turbo oil feed line? Run a different tubing or etc.?
  5. Gen1 1.4L Turbo
    Is my engine trashed?! First post...bought a 2011 1.4 turbo Cruze that wasn’t running. Owner said turbo was bad, and random misfire code. So I took a chance on it. Turbo was already off and cracked so I replaced it with a new one along with all new oil and coolant lines. Idled for ten minutes...
  6. Gen1 1.4L Turbo
    So I've only had 2 prior issues with my 2012 Cruze. The first issue was a bad battery that caused a lot of weird issues with electronics. Post here, got things fixed and have been good. Then about two years ago I had what was described to me as a transfer box for coolant that was leaking. I was...
  7. Gen1 Service Issues
    Hi all, I've spent a decent amount of time trying to track down the part number for this and it's after hours so I'm out of options till Monday. Any idea what this line that's highlighted is called? It's leaking at the metal flange, toward the block. Thank you in advance.
  8. Gen1 1.4L Turbo
    Hi all, My wife's car threw a P0290, and she was experiencing frequent losses of power, and smelling fuel at stoplights. I looked up the code and found upon inspection that the hot side of the turbo had cracked the little flapper valve that closes to create boost (the name escapes me) was...
  9. Gen1 1.4L Turbo
    I believe I have a leak on my transmission fluid lines going into the radiator. I am not sure completely so I am attaching pictures to see if anyone has had a similar issue and can help me identify the problem. Any input will be greatly appreciated. If this is a transmission line leak, then what...
  10. Gen1 Diesel General Discussion
    Good morning everyone! Well, I'm at 153K on my '14 CTD and finally got around to changing out the leaky transmission cooler lines. The lines have been seeping since about 70k, but when my transmission started to slip I knew it was time to swap them out. Sure enough the trans was about 2...
  11. Gen2 Audio & Electronics
    Hey guys, noob question. Trying to wire in an LOC, and at first glace I figured I would just wire it into the rear deck speakers (17 LT Diesel, 8" MyLink w/ Bose). Anybody have a wiring diagram for +/- for these speakers? Or if I'm going about this all the wrong way
  12. Gen1 1.4L Turbo
    2012 LTZ Auto with 105,000. Been tightening up leaks. Just finished oil cooler leak. Now I have a trans cooler line that is leaking. My question is, can just the rubber part of the line (as seen in the attached photo) be replaced or do I have to go from radiator to trans? Who else has done...
  13. Gen1 Audio, Electronics & Electrical
    Hello all from Cincinnati. This is my first post to any forum and it is a couple questions. I have a 2013 Cruze LTZ with navigation and ON-Star. A few months ago, we have a red line through the GPS on the MyLink display screen. It does not show the car moving nor will it plot a course. Radio and...
  14. Gen I
    This is the whole set, the radio unit with CD/MP3, the multi line screen (not the skinny single line) and the face with the buttons. I am upgrading to a new stereo with an 8 inch display and it comes with it's own direct fit control panel. Everything works as it should, the display is good...
  15. Gen1 Service Issues
    So at 98,000 miles we have another problem with the lovely 2012 Cruze, the oil feed line has a slight leak so looking up the part on Gm parts direct, Gm club parts, Rock Auto, etc. it seems they have discontinued this part. Still ordered it off Amazon but am wondering why so many Gm part...
  16. Gen1 Diesel Technical Discussion
    Has anyone changed these out themselves? What special tools are needed? I know the lines connect to the radiator with some type of special connection, can a fuel line removal tool be used for these? How much fluid should I expect to lose during this process?
  17. General Discussion
    Since owning my Cruze I’ve always noticed that the part of the fuel line that contains the fuel pulse damper (the round shinny thing) always has hung down so much that my fuel line was touching up against a bolt on the intake manifold. It was been this was so long that the edge of that bolt it...
  18. General Discussion
    I busted the nylon fuel line and connector that connects to the metal lines under the passenger side of the car. I went and picked up the parts today and hope they fix it. Any advice on the best way to do this? It is COLD and I don't want to be out there all day.
  19. Gen1 Powertrain
    Anyone know if they sell fittings with the bolt that holds the line on the transmission housing for running custom trans oil lines?
  20. Gen1 Service Issues
    Hello All, Looks like something ate a piece of my Windshield Wiper fluid line and I am going to need to replace it. Unfortunately, the cut is deep in the engine bay and I have no idea how to reach it. Here is a picture of the washer fluid tank, and about as clear as I could get it and here is...
