Good morning fellow cruze folks,
I need some help before I spend a bunch of money I dont have on parts. I have a 2014 cruze 2.0 diesel. I love this car. The entire time I have owned it (20K miles. 112k when I got it and 132k on it now) It has used very little DEF. As a matter of fact I have never seen it go into regen mode. I have put a few of the advance auto (peak) Def containers into it so it has used some. Anywho, I have been getting the occasional check engine light for a while. It was a P11D7. I can find very little info on this and THINK its a reference to a NOX sensor but I dont know if its upstream or down. On sunday I got the poor quality def message and it started the countdown. I added another box of fresh DEF and went for an extended test drive to no avail. I then gave it the old Itialian diesel tune up. 3K RPM in manual shift mode for the 10 mile drive home to clean out the exhaust to no avail. I checked DTCs with my crappy scanner and found P249D is current and P20EE in history. I have a Vector CAN CASE I use for work.
Does anyone know of a Windows 10 supported scan tool I can use in conjunction with my VN1630 CAN case to look at the NOX readings?
Has anyone seen similar things on their cruze and have an educated guess. I see Amazon has the pair of NOX sensors for $363 and can have them here monday. I dont like the idea of shotgunning parts at this car but I am blind without a real scanner. The Techs at the dealer seem to no almost nothing about these cars in my town so I would prefer to figure it out myself.
Any help would be appreciated. I need to get this thing fixed asap
