2011 Chevy Cruze LT Mileage:69,000
Had check engine light come on after experiencing little smoke coming from engine now and then. So I plugged in the OB2 reader and cam out with code PO171.
I'm not really knowledgeable on cars but think its from a leak coming from gasket cover. My car sometimes sputters only when
I come to a stop. Here' few pictures of my engine where I think it's leaking. If you look on the side of cover as you will notice
some moisture and what appears to look like oil buildup. If someone knows something I don't, I would greatly appreciate some info what you think before taking it in.

Thanks everyone for your help. The bolts look loose but don't have proper tool for that . I did however
try to see if there's is any slight movement with a good old fashion wrench without stripn it, but didn't see any. I'm
glad to hear the PCV valve is covered by power train warranty and will see how it all plays out when I take it in next week.
I would however take it in asap but all the GM Dealers around here are booked until next week from all the recalls
they been having.
As I'm writing this I received a notice in the mail to schedule an appointment for unexpected low coolant levels for this type of model. UGGGG!
Guess that's the price you pay for new model. I'll keep you all updated to see if they honor the power train warranty just like they advertised.
Thanks Again!

Dealer said it was a leaking valve cover and replaced with no charge since it is covered under Powertrain warranty.
