My wife just bought a 2022 Buick Encore and I am a bit concerned about the ecotec engine being problematic. It seems that the PVC and the turbo are weak points but with the PVC system update, catch can and servicing the oil supply line it looks like those issues can be dealt with easy enough. It seems that most cars today have something to worry about. We just let the old Subaru go with 222k that was leaking oil and coolant from the head gasket for like 10 years so we know how to baby a car. I am planning on changing the oil every 6 months which is like 3k miles as this is what we did to the Subaru and it lasted for a very long time with a major problem. Thanks for the video. Even though it looks like the ecotec has issue it looks easy enough to work on and the overall car seems simple enough. PEACE
Hello. Luckily www.supercruzes.com has upgrades to fix those issues
Good parts, catch can bracket, and tutorial. This is a good combination to make a LUV 1.4 significantly more reliable
Thanks. I'm very happy with this kit. Some fun stuff is coming soon!!!!!
Couldn’t be any happier with the end result. Thank you so much for all you do, and making this catch can and PCV fix. This video is very detailed and how all videos should be made!
Hey how are you? I’m glad you let me know. And thank you!
Hi,
I have been using the v2 kit on my cruze and it's been good for over 4 years & when I swapped out my intercooler, there was about 1 tbl. Spoon of oil in side. Also, the radiator works well. I have been on the road for about 100 / 200 miles now & I think everyone will be happy with it. The intercooler kit keeps the charge cool as well more tq. At the wheel & less throttle to move the car as well even on a stock tune. Thank you
Hey hope you’re doing well. I was actually going to send you an email to see how you made out. This is a great comment to leave!!!!!! By the way I recommend adding the catch can to your car that will help get that junk out
@Dave’s World I have one ty. I have been doing well over all ty. I hope you are doing well.
When you have time Send pics of your car I will add it to the show case on my web site.
I'm so glad to see you working with Andre. I used his fix kit and added a catch can just like you did in this video. I used to have it routed the second way you described. Just a warning to those in cold climate areas, if you don't empty it often it can freeze and clog the system. Wiped out the valve cover and turbo on my sonic. Next time I need a kit I'll definitely come to you Dave. By the way if my explanation of my self caused problem doesn't make sense feel free to remove my post as to not cause confusion for anyone. Nice work once again!
Hey how are you. Just in case people have an issue using one vs the other style routing I do have some insulated versions to help.
just did this and luckily I had already ordered a new PCV Hose for this car months earlier. Lucky I did because the valve in the bottom part.( near the turbo) eas completely gone. When you take that hose off if you can blow air from that bottom part then the valve is missing. On the new one when you look in that bottom part of that hose connector, you can clearly see the orange valve. You can actually suck through but you shouldn’t be able to blow through it.
I simply took the new PCV hose. I got and cut the ends of it off to use instead of the old one. Not expensive at all on eBay or wherever anyways, I think this is something important people should know. If you did it without replacing the bottom part of that hose then you are probably missing that valve also. Should be easily remedied and replaced.
I’m glad I found this video! I’ll be buying from you and installing it on a new one.
Awesome. Keep in touch I enjoy helping when I can!
Catch Can is a must for these cars!
Words to live by!!!!!!!
The hoses that connect to the catch can are having all the air sucked out of them and collapsing when revving…
You probably have a problem in the intake. Message me through the website so we can diagnose it further.
Most newer GDI cars no longer have the traditional PCV valve but use an integrated Pressure Regulator Valve built into the rocker cover itself. I think they even route the oil back into the pan somehow? So I guess there would be zero need for a catch can or any other mods??
Actually the newer cars are even worse I have a completely different set up for those cars. In fact the PCV system causes loud noises that was actually drone inducing. My kit kills that drone
I would love to see a ported intake manifold from you.
Love the name. Gaming name?
I'm curious if the stock intake manifold can be modified to have a true 65mm opening for the LNF TB? Rigit now the LNF offered by zzp has a reducer to 49mm which basically makes the LNF TB a worthless mod as it has very little to no performance gain on the stock intake manifold. Now racer x makes their manifold with an LNF 65mm adapter so there would be a true performance gain. But I'm more attracted to the idea of keeping most of the stock intake manifold functionality but just modifying the TB opening to 65mm. Thoughts?
Yea it can be done easily. Luckily it’s plastic and can be done with patience
They do kits for Chevy. Trax has the same engine. I have 2017.
Yes these fit the Trax too an I have Trax versions.
I own a 2017 Chevy Sonic. Will the catch can install on it as well? I couldn't locate any pre-drilled holes on the strut tower. I'm guessing ill have to drill my own holes? Thank you for the content.
I have a sonic specific version. It mounts in a different location. What canister set up are you running?
@davesworld2132 sorry for my ignorance. Idk what you mean. I'm not running anything at the moment. I am just looking into possibly buying a kit in the near future. My car is throwing some codes. I took it to the nearest GM dealer, to see about getting it fixed because there's a recall on these engines, specifically for the turbo. Long story short, they refused to fix it, because my car no longer has a warranty. I thought warranty didn't matter with recalls? They did scan it. Said It needs a the upper O2 sensor replaced. The camshaft cover is leaking a little oil. It wants to hesitate from a stop when accelerating. I've had this car for 2 years. This year it is starting to act like its "flooded" whenever I fuel up. After I fill up, as soon as I try to start it, it will turn over for several cycles before firing off. After that, it's fine until I fill up again. Something to do with fuel/air ratio? Idk. I checked the diaphragm on the cam cover, and checked for the "orange nipple" (pcv valve?) in the intake manifold. It's still there. So idk what else it could be. I only know your basic knowledge, if even that much. What would you recommend me buy and/or test, etc,.. Thank you in advance.
@@l1nkofshadowz68 When you first comment that it sounded like you were trying to install some thing that’s why I ask. I have a specific kit that I make that fixes the PCV system and adds a canister to a specific location on the firewall next to the strut tower. That being said even though you see the orange nipple that does not mean that internal check valve is still there. It’s possible that Justice Center nipple is left and the the check valve is broken.
@davesworld2132 okay. Thank you, Sir. I'll keep your kit in mind when the time comes. I appreciate your help. 👍
Is your catch cans baffled or no? Just out of curiosity?
this $75 kit is saving me $900 a shop quoted me to replace it, to another guaranteed to fail parts lol.
Yea and most shops just replace the valve cover or intake but do not fix the PCV
Bought kit, at 1240, does the arrow go to the right or left? Thank you
@@Chris-jg5vw right toward intake
Your the best
One question I’m not sure of , mine still has the orange check valve in it as I’m not having any boost leaks or anything , what do I do with the plug ? Will I push the orange thing inside or I’m lost here lol, my boost gauge I installed yesterday peaks around 16 psi holds 12 when on flats and I’m getting into it goin up the mountain about 16 . That about right ?
The plug disintegrates pretty much turns into nothing over time anyway. If your worried you can remove the intake it takes like 10 minute tops.
@@davesworld2132 ok thanks for the reply catch can showed up today I’m stoked to get a nice weekend day to install it , as I got a oil cooler upgraded o ring kit , and a zzp thermostat housing and a aluminum water outlet and valve cover and the pcv fix kit to install just put my zzp pillar gauge holder in with boost gauge have a oil pressure gauge on the way !! Thanks for an awesome product wit fast shippping !!
Good morning hi have a 2018 Chevy craze lt 1.4 and it's giving me a p1101 code on hi do everything but the light still on can you help me with its 🙏
Hi yes. Best to email me at customcruze@gmail.com
After how many miles does the catch can have to be emptied ? I’m at about 1800 miles per month …
Depends on the engines health. Some are weekly some are every few months. On average 1 time per oil change sometimes 2 times.
Can this be installed in the Dorman intake manifold?? And how would I find out more info on what you charge to have it installed on one already
Do you have one already? I have a ported Dorman in stock
When will the kit come with option of blue or red hoses?
I didn’t add the option to the website but I can do blue and red.
@@davesworld2132 That would be great. Would love to do red. Still trying to find red silicone coolant hoses. I appreciate you and Andrei all the work you guys have done for the Cruze community/ groups.
@@andremaheu1 Thank you!
Nice kit for the PCV fixed!
Is this the same for a gen 2 ? Im having a hard time getting rid of a p0172 and p1101 code

Will this work with a 2018 Malibu?
No but I do custom make ones for the 2018 Malibu if you message me through the website
I have a Cruze and need a catch can.
I noticed in the videos that you can make the intake mod with the manifold in place, which leads me to a question . The part falls into the motor!
Did I miss something?
Usually that part has already fallen apart and disintegrated which is why these kits are designed to repair the intakes. If it’s gone it’s also crumbled into nothing at that point usually. It’s a dumb design and that orange plug literally doesn’t even need to be there General Motors could’ve literally just made that a flat plastic part with no hole in it. Www.supercruzes.com has the add-ons for the catch can if you need one.
@@davesworld2132 thanks
How does this work on a 2019 trax?
Yes I have Trax versions. Just message me through the website and I can build a Trax version.
Which way does the arrow point on the check valve?
It points toward the intake
i have a gen 2 cruze and my exhaust has been smoking for a little bit now it had me worried that it was a head gasket or piston rings but in watching ur videos it kinda makes me think its my pcv, i dont have one of your catch cans yet but i have no cats, a k&n intake and no tune. when i took the black box off connected to the k&n intake and pcv hose i saw milky oil dripping out but no where else. do you think your kit would fix this issue?
Could be just simple excessive oil from the PCV. You have no cat. Are you tuned?
@@davesworld2132 no i am not i noticed this issue right before i was going to get one so i decided to look into the issue first, i will say tho my car feels no where near what it used to be

Hey bud. I have a question about the Cruze. I’m from the UK and have an opel/Vauxhall Astra k. Uses the same turbo. I have stock turbo with the mambatek actuator. What is the best recirculating valve to use? I will be tuning in a decat as well once all is installed
What year is yours ?
@@davesworld2132 it’s a 2015 model
@@ColesyShoots I like forge. If you can’t find one message me through my website and I can get you one.
@@davesworld2132 I’ve been struggling with what recirculating valve in general haha. I’ve ordered the mambatek actuator. Just the recirculating valve now
@@ColesyShoots valve makes a big difference with holding boost.
Does this kit work for 2018? Also is there a way to walnut clean the valves?
There’s a different version of the PCV fox on www.supercruzes.com for the Gen 2 . As far as walnut clean you can only do that if the head is removed. The Gen 2 oil separator system will keep the valves clean
Thank you for video and fix
I appreciate you watching it thank you very much
How much is a catch kit for a 2012 Chevy Cruz
Hi I have a few versions on www.supercruzes.com
If your original check valve is still intact can you double up check valves and run it with the kit until it fails? Dont know how i feel about jb weld inside the intake
You can but I would just pop it out and fix it now while you’re in there
Pop it out and let it fall inside the intake or should I take the intake off and get it out
@@paulcherry1520 I think others have just let it fall in without issue but I never did anything with this yet as my car is still doing okay without it. 2015 with 98k currently
@@Rancid_Ninjaok thanks illl see what Dave says here mines got 123,xxx 2012 Chevy Cruze eco black 6 speed manual many mods to go lol
Do I need to get a tune to run this without throwing a code?
No I have a bunch of customers that put this on a stock car and noticed a big difference. In fact some of them are reported better gas mileage
What if the check valve is still in the manifold
A lot of times just the orange nipple is there but the valve is broken off inside and what you see its the part that is left
@@davesworld2132 do you just pop it out ?
not just pop it out but it also needs to be capped and the check valve needs to be relocated. @@scottyj1643
Did you fix it? Check it now, could be gone. I bought the pcv fix kitv3 from that other dude with yt video about it, last year. When i looked i still had the orange valve so i just threw the fix kit on the shelf. Today i looked and the orange piece is gone so i installed the kit finally 😅@scottyj1643
@@RandoManFPVwhat you could’ve done is get a flathead and ripped the nipple out, and it would’ve just be tossed out by the engine my trax has 51k miles pretty sure the nipple is still there but I’m just gonna pop it out
