Oh wow. PCV Valve part itself is usually not that expensive. And you can replace it yourself. Good luck. Thank you for sharing!

Woosh is good.

We will follow your feedback moving forward. Thank you so much for sharing!

So do we keep the "Whooof" swipe sound effect, or do we remove it? What do you guys really prefer? Thank you.

​@@fixit3879Jeez, helpful videos and complainers gonna complain no matter what.

You need a more advanced repair manual specific to your car. Sometimes they can be purchased on ebay for cheap. Or stop by your local CAR MODEL DEALERSHIP and ask the parts department for a diagram print out to help you out. They can print one out for free. Good Luck!

Glad you found this Video Helpful. Thank you so much for sharing !!!

NOT REALLY. If you cut the fender rail with the engine mount, then you have to support the weight of the engine by putting a jack stand or hydraulic jack under the engine. If you are not touching or removing any of the engine mounts, then you don't have to support the engine. But in either case for Chevy Cruze you don't need to remove the engine. Hope this helps. Good Luck!

@@fixit3879 i just stuck a 4 ton hydraulic spreader bar up underneath and unbent it enough so a new fender could go on. Harbor freight had them on liquidation sale for like 75% off

Thank you.

We all have nostalgic moments, I hear you. However, I do like the advance electronics in modern cars, they are supposed to help us and improve cars. Although not always.

Yes, you do have to cut out the damaged fender rail, and weld in a replacement. Hope this helps. Good Luck!

@@fixit3879 would I run the risk of catching the vehicle on fire if I do not remove the engine? I'm only asking because people are trying to talk me out of doing my repair the proper way and I really don't want to it the half ass way...

NO, TCMs are only on automatic Transmission vehicles. Gear input on manuals is provided by the driver. Good Luck!

That is never a good sign. Good Luck to you.

You are welcome. Glad you found it helpful. Thank you!

You are welcome. Glad you found it helpful.

Wow, very unusual. Possibly bad AC Pressure switch. You should also check to make sure it has enough refrigerant. Good Luck!

Glad you found it helpful. Thank you!

It can be both. When it starts misfiring, it can do both. Good Luck!

That is very unusual. Good luck!

Thank you.

Thank you for sharing.

It might be low on oil sounds like. It is possible that oil pressure sensor is bad. It definitely needs to be checked out.

Same

@@mangkokhayon5039 today I filled the freon cause it was low and it started cooling real good . But then during the mid day heat it randomly stopped cooling while driving and blowing hot air. Now parked on my driveway in the evening for like an hour it's been cooling good non stop

Does sound like possible AC pressure switch problem. Or you might just be low on refrigerant.

@@fixit3879 it was low and I topped it off. Now it cools really good when parked. But when I drive it cools but then randomly it starts smelling musky damp and starts blow regular air not cool. And if I would stop and start the car again. It would start cooling again

I wonder where's that switch.

You are welcome. Glad you found it helpful.

You can buy a new one from your local Ford Dealership, or you can buy a used one from local area used parts, or junk yards. Hope this helps. Good Luck.

Thank you for sharing. I had the same problem on my 2017 Chevy Malibu also.

Hope it helps. Good luck. Thank you.

While you are working on it, sure. But then put it back again.

At the front wheels. Under the Control arms.

I can think of following possible reasons: Faulty Compressor: A new compressor could be defective, causing rapid loss of refrigerant or pressure. Improper Installation: If not installed correctly, leaks may occur due to loose fittings, improperly seated seals, or missing o-rings. Incorrect Oil Charge: Using the wrong type or insufficient amount of compressor oil can lead to internal issues. System Contamination: Debris, moisture, or old refrigerant oil in the AC system before installing the new compressor can damage components and cause leaks. Pressure Relief Valve Issue: Faulty or incorrectly set pressure relief valves may release refrigerant unnecessarily, leading to pressure loss. System Blockage: Blockages in parts like the expansion valve or receiver/dryer can cause excessive pressure buildup and release of refrigerant.

@fixit3879 ill start with the pressure valves, thanks so much

You're welcome!

I have the same problem but I haven’t found the issue

@@mcgbeats2107 I installed a new compressor, it is better but I feel like it is not at 100%. I suspect the filter/drier might be clogged. If you will have more info from yours, let me know 😬

Not enough refrigerant. Probably has a slow leak in the schrader valves. Watch it when running if the clutch is going bad you'll see it slipping. The bearings in them do go bad too. Or is a weak magnet. They are not hard to change. Buy a hose and can of 134a from walmart and get the pressure on the low side around 35 with the ac running. when you check if it is less than 30 psi on low side when running you need refrigerant. I got videos on my channel about it might not be with your car but you can still learn about it. Look under the hood make sure you find out what refrigerant it uses before you buy anything.

@chriss4365 The mechanic I went to check for any leakage and none and the refrigant was also right amount. But if the compressor clutch is bad or weak magnet, wouldn't then the ac not work at all? In my case the ac seems to work when cruising on highway. What makes it work then? On highway speeds the engine rpm are around 2000 if that says anything.

@bajalal8977 on highway you have more airflow. Does your radiator have electric fans?

@chriss4365 Yes it does have electric fan. Could it be the fan that is not working at idling and causing ac compressor to short cycle?

@bajalal8977 it won't shut off the compressor, but it will make it not have cold air.

Wow, thank you for advice. Appreciate it.

Yup. Thank you.

Sounds like a possible AC Pressure switch problem. Good Luck!

Sounds like your car is out of alignment now. Possibly may have to replace a Tie Rod, and then do 4-Wheel Alignment. Good Luck! Thank you for sharing.

Hitting any object including deer on the road can cause wheel mis-alignment.

Sounds like a possible ball joint.

You are welcome! Thank you for the Comment!

That is great. Thank you for sharing!

@@fixit3879 hasn't failed me yet 😊

You pop the hood and recharge the battery. Thank you for commenting.

Thanks for commenting.

Probably not. You have a turbocharged engine. It is possible that the turbo system/hose might have a leak somewhere. Good Luck.

Thanks for commenting.

Thank you!
