CHEVY 1.4L TURBO ENGINE KNOCK/ HARD TICKING DIAGNOSTIC 

This was very helpful I was about to trade my sonic in and take a huge loss! Thank you bro

First 5 seconds in love this dude already

This was actually VERY helpful

My 2012 had the same problem thanks for helping me I just looked into some new parts it's going to be fun

Update! Valve lifters did correct the problem, I replaced all of them intake and exhaust. The dealer sells them in sets of each side, surprisingly not very expensive for the parts, but a good amount of labour 👍

Thanks for the video! Would have loved to see you work through the fix. If you know where someone posted it on-line let us know.

thank you for video

I have a 2014 cruze, about 150,000 km on it. Recently the ticking got louder, engine light is on and it now has very inconsistent or sluggish acceleration. Took it to a dealer and they did the plugs and a fuel induction service. They were getting a P0300 and P0324 codes indicating cylinder 1 and 4 misfires. The dealer suggested the knock sensor be replaced if their repairs didnt solve the problem, so i replaced it. I have a feeling this is a more serious and expensive fix than expected. Any thoughts from your experience?

thank you

On my 2011 Chevrolet Cruze 2.0 Diesel there is a noisy sound during cold start but when the engine is much warmer then that noise during cold start disappears. But though the noise still exist during when the AC is on.

what was the fix?

Great video though. How come you don't have more videos like this on RU-vid? You should do more

I’m also from Ontario, just bought one of these noticed the valve noise was a bit loud when I test drove it but was told by friends that’s just the way these turbo 4 cylinders sound. Now my first day driving it I beat on it a bit I got home and noticed she was ticking pretty bad. I guess I’ll have to rip off the valve cover and see what I got myself into.

Hi fish I have a 2013 turbo boost Chevy Cruze engine light came on said it was turbo boost how long before it goes out I'm not driving it I dnt want to mess it up more

Hey man I’m working on my girlfriends 2013 Chevy Cruze it has more of a tick then a knock noise there’s no engine light but I can hear a pretty loud tick a little further up on the engine from where you where showing here so I was wondering what it could be I clearly know nothing about this car lol….

I have the problem, what is a general ballpark price to get fixed?

curious if you replaced that and it fixed the issue. also wondering if you can replace that with just taking off the valve cover and not tearing it all down. I am asking because i took mine to the dealer, without really looking dude was like its a collapsed lifter " i have same exact issue code for #3 with knock sensor code" will cost 11, 000 for a rebuilt motor lol. i was like dude i can by one of these with no engine issues for 6,000.. i would rather not tear down the entire engine as that is a lot of work and i live in an apartment complex. if that little booger can be replaced from the top can do np.

Mine is not a turbo, other problems over time.
