2019 1.4L keeps throwing engine underboost codes. Light comes on and off with a “reduced engine power” prompt daily. Oddly enough, even with the “reduced engine power” and engine light, I can still accelerate and maintain above 60mph but still noticeably less power. Pulled the vacumm lines and...

But wait, there's more! I flushed the coolant in my 2016 Cruze Limited yesterday and found a small bit of oil leaking from the intercooler line. "Isn't that supposed to be an air line?! " I thought. Sure is! I've been doing lots of research, even ordered the PCV fix kit. I found that the...

First post on here, so hey everyone, I've looked at these forums for help and info for a long time now, but I thought I would try to get some ideas or thoughts from any of you on a problem I'm having. I was just wondering, I installed the ZZP Catch Can, and PCV bypass about half a year ago, and...

Hi all, been lurking and soaking up info in the background here intermittently for ~2yrs. Thanks for all the help already. I'm working on a 2012 LT, automatic 1.4L. Location; NC, US. Not current on the mileage, but I'd guess ~160k. I do have a repair project I'm working on and would...

Hey guys, I recently installed a k&n intake and after about 20 minutes of driving we noticed a strange noise. Almost sounds like a 2 stroke while shes idling 🤣 I was told that it’s probably a bad pcv valve that had been bad before I put on the intake and I’m only hearing it now? There’s no...

So I've replaced intake, valve cover, oil feed line to turbo, oil return line, both coolant lines, and the turbo and exhaust itself. All this was done at the same time. Now it's blowing white smoke while driving down the road. Any suggestions? Anyone else have this problem? Losttttttttt

Hello all, I changed my PCV valve on my 2016 Chevy Cruze Limited 1.4T. Followed the instructions, put everything back together and tightened screws to the correct torque specification, but my car now shakes and has a whistling noise a few second after it's turned on. I checked the Intake...

I've been having an issue with my 2013 Chevy Cruze Lt sputtering at idle and randomly raising the RPM at idle also. The P1101 code said it was the Mass Airflow Sensor so I replaced it and it does run a little better but I still have all the same symptoms as before just minus the P1101 Code. At...

So my cruze is a 2013 with 119000 miles, i absolutely love the car but lately it has caused more problems than I can afford. Let me explain: So originally i had the dreaded pcv failure at the valve cover, at the time i could only change the valve cover, well it leaked very little in the front...

THE TIME HAS COME! I just received a letter from GM stating that they are providing additional protection for the PCV valve. 120,000 or 10 years whichever comes first. My Vehicle has almost 170,000 miles. They are also offering reimbursement. You best believe I am submitting all 4 camshaft...

In April of 2019, our 2012 Cruze with just 47,600 miles started running rough. The dealer said it was the PCV valve, camshaft cover and intake manifold. The total repair cost us $903.01. I searched online for several hours and found dozens of owners with the same issue. I talked to 3 GM...

I have been diagnosing this for a while now, I have been getting P0420 and P0299 codes plus low boost (3psi) and a burned oil smell at traffic lights. Seems the problem is a clogged PCV port at the cylinder head. My check valve is still in place and my vacuum diaphragm was acting normally. So...

Hey guys, A little bit ago I had the hissing valve cover and the missing orange dot on the intake manifold on my 2012 Cruze Eco automatic. I replaced both the valve cover and the intake manifold, making sure to put some RTV on the seams. I'm happy to report that the car feels like it's running...

Hello, Today I was attempting to self-diagnose a couple of issues I’ve been having with my Cruze. The first issue is that I’ve had an intermittent CEL (P0420). Lately, the code has not gone away and I’ve been noticing a drastic drop in mpg. I changed the oil on the car ~ 600 miles ago. Today I...

Alright y'all, I know I know. Why would I do such a thing? I'll explain below. Ultimately I hope to get some kind of simple help DIY help here. If not, I'm ready to dish out some money to fix this issue. My 2016 Cruze overheated on my way to see family. My coolant was boiling, so I proceeded to...
