So first off the Cruze is my wife's commuter car, now don't get me wrong I like it too but well I drive and have driven Fat Chicks (ACVW'S) most of my life. Anyway like the forum that I normally frequent I am here looking for information. The Cruze that she drives now is a 2015 1.4t RS package and yes I know that the RS is just an appearance package anymore but that little 1.4 sure does have some spunk for being a smaller engine than the 1904 in my Bug, I even think the thing is dimensionally and weight wise smaller too.
As I said I came here of some information and no I haven't done a search yet but I just found this site so please excuse me for putting this in before I try your search function. What I am looking for is information on a miss under load on this beast. what we have is it will miss as you are cruising along at highway speeds and start into a hill or basically when it you start putting more demand for power while at partial throttle because if you floor it as it starts to miss it will accelerate fine with out any miss but if you only step into it a little(not floor it) it will still miss it will even do it bad enough to momentarily turn on the check engine light. The car has 62,000 miles on it and had oil changes every 4000, on it's third air filter and I just changed the plugs (gap 0.28) because of the miss but it didn't remedy the problem. Anyway has anybody else experienced this problem and if so what was the remedy, it's odd though as the Cruze that my wife had before a 2012 with a 1.8 only had oil and filter changes the whole time we had it 100,000 and never missed a beat.
