2015 Chevy Cruze check engine light

Can even do an oil change correctly, oil cap has to be on tight and the dipstick pushed all the way in. With this kind of sloppy work, what about proper torquing on the oil filter cap and the drain plug, can't even do this right.

Ha, watched you Only Live Twice where Bond took one of his hairs on the closet door, used this on my oil filter cap, already caught a couple of dealers charging me for an oil filter and showed them that hair was still there, lying basterds.

Kids came home with a cross threaded drain plug, had to try that with an old oil pan, certainly not by hand starting it, had to use my 460 ft-lb impact wrench with an impact socket and start it at an angle, so it can be done by an a$$hole.

PCV system in the Cruze measures the vacuum in the crankcase, if that vacuum is not there, will set a code. Feel this is your problem. Also, did they really use dexos oil and charge you 40 bucks extra while using cheap conventional oil?

Sure wasn't born paranoid, but sure became this way.

Totally agree. But I guarantee I'm not breaking a sweat if something more than the gas cap is tripping a code. I didn't buy a brand new car that depreciated $6k as soon as I pulled off the lot so I can work on it myself.

For years I always changed my own oil on not only my cars but dozens of friends and family's as well. I've never changed the oil in the cruze, Its only like $10 more to have someone else do it(the dealer). It also nice if I ever had a mechanical issue I have good records that show I've used Dexos Approved oil that was changed regularly. It's great to develop a relationship with the service department, goes along way to getting good customer service.

I have my dealer user Mobil 1, twice now they have put the regular dexos oil in and had to do a second oil change. This last time they added this little sticker under the hood I noticed when I got home.....
