    All the times I've worked on my Chevy Cruze never seen this video now I make my own videos about a lot of the things you talked about in this video such a coincidence that I needed this video years ago months ago I just had a radiator leak

    You
    Just for explanation. My chevy cruze 2012 1.8 kept bubbling and spitting out the reservoir and I changed cap changed the pump thermostat tried blue devil...nothing worked. The actual engine wasn't overheating. After all that I changed the whole reservoir tank and it stopped so I think it was letting air in through the exit valve on the reservoir tank. 4 or 5 mechanics didn't figure this out before it was finally done and repaired with a cheap tank. Thought people might want to know since there is no video on that.

    Informative but I have a case where antifreeze is boiling out of the overflow tank after about 5 minutes of operation but you can squeeze both upper and lower hoses from the radiator as they are barely warm. Supposedly the water pump has been changed recently. 2012 1.8L FFV.

      The 65 Chevy corvair was an awesome looking car. Looked like a midsize 1965 Chevy impala. The corvair had an air-cooled engine and came with the option of “twin turbos.”
      They were later heavily criticized as being unsafe and pretty much seen as problem laden cars. Yet, I saw many customers get 20-30 yrs use out of them. Air-cooled so no need for coolant nor a radiator. They were a dime a dozen in the 80s but try to find one now?

    Thanks a lot for a great videos you've posted. Just a quick questions, Is it normal that the radiator fan off all the time if the a/c off. Because, when i turn off the a/c the radiator fan will turn off in couple minutes. I don't see turning again. Any answer is highly appreciated. And by the way i am talking about a 2014 Chevy Cruze 1.8. Thanks.

    my 2015 chevy cruze normal working. Everything is good. But when driving long i feel more heat. In other cars i have not such as feeling. I think it is due their thermostat opening over 100°Celcius.
    Now in our services offer write code for thermostat opening in 95°Celci. I want your advise about this?

Check for leaks and if it's overheating don't keep running it until it shuts off. Turbo?? Change your oil every 3,000 miles. Engine knock??? Change your knock sensor or use 93 octane don't be a cheapskate. Plastic breaking at 100k?? What you expect from plastic. Transmisión failure?? If the car is overheating where those the oil cooler goes too? To the radiator. Oil leaks? 1.4 is not hard to work on it, fix it. So many excuses but people do many stupid things to the car because is a cheap car and when you buy it is all screwed.

    I have a 2013 Cruze with the 1.4 Turbo. It will run at normal operating temp for a 10 minute drive and then start to climb in temp and fluctuate down and back up as the thermostat opens, I imagine. Then it spikes to 260+. I can stop and shut it off and on several times and then it will rapidly drop back to normal operating temp. We have changed the thermostat, radiator, both temp sensors and the water outlet. It also shows negative on the chemical test for blown head gasket. Thoughts?

    i have Cruze 2015 1,4 turbo. Overheating. Antifreeze leaking also. No one can find it. Car 3 days in service. Water pump change, thermostat change, thermpature sensor change, radiator checking it is good. Fan works well. The service says have bad circulation. Now they think it is due to The Engine Control Module (ECM) or a problem inside the engine.
    I know without looking car can not say anything, but any think, advice maybe help.
