Once again a very nice clean video, very clear and beautifully edited . Well done brother
New Level Auto Thanks, it was done on the iPhone. Glad you liked it, I'm trying to take my videos to a 'New Level' 😎
The Homie Hektor hahaaa. Love it . You'll be seen a lot more often soon enough I'm sure man just keep up the great work
agreed
The
you are correct the wast gate gets stuck open. this happened to my 2012 cruze i used wd40 to clear away the rust where the shaft goes through the manifold and you do this while the turbo is on the engine then used carb cleaner to wash away the wd40 and solved the problem. The exhaust manifold is cast iron and it gets to hot for lubrication and it will rust there is moisture in the exhaust. Good job My cruze has 218000 miles and i replaced the turbo at about 210000 miles so the turbo will go over 200000.
the 8mm felt a little loose to me, used a 7mm and it fit just fine.
Thanks for the vid, very much appreciated.
Great job Hektor! I have one of these to do now and this video just shined some much needed light into the way this thing works. Thanks again for your efforts bro!
great video - short, simple and straight to the point - thank you so much
Thanks for subscribing 👍🏼
I been investigating that P0299 off my girlfriend's car (2014 Chevey Cruze) with the same symptoms and all. Thank you for your video!! \m/
Do you know how much it cost to get it fix?
I'm with New Level Auto on this one, the edits on your videos are super clean. It makes it entertaining when the music flows with the video. Very Cool. Keep it up!
Dexter Dexcool Glad the you guys are enjoying the videos. I try to make them different when I can... Thanks for watching!!
Damn this looks expensive and I’m having strong feelings this is what I’m going to need to replace lol.
Thank you for a very informative video. I now have a better idea as to what I am dealing with, wish i had a lift to work on the car myself like you have in the vid. If you need another Cruze to do the how to video on replacing the turbo step by step I'd be happy to volunteer my wife's 2012 that has come up with the P0299 code :-)
You don't have to take the cat out. You can just loosen it and it'll fall far enough to get the turbo out. Saves you from breaking the studs when you try to loosen the cat from the rest of the exhaust.
This is a great video! I am on a road trip and had a P0299 come up when I got a diagnostic test. I have a feeling this is what I will need sadly. Appreciate the video though!!
I always have used 8mm on those inverted bolts. 10mm on larger inverts. Great video......
Great video formatting. logical, clear, very good to learn from.
gwho thanks for subscribing 🤙🏼
Thank you. You saved me much time. Excellent Video .
your camera work is outstanding the best i've seen very informative tutorial as well ! i enjoyed this video a lot !
brewcrew 🙏🏼 make sure to subscribe 🤙🏼
Thanks for this vid my bro has a chevy cruze now I know how to check the turbo.
Juan Hinojosa That's what I'm here for...what good is it to have knowledge if you're not sharing it 🤝you know...
This happened to me and the intercooler hoses some how popped off and every mechanic said it was the turbo visual inspection 1st
I'm leaking coolamt and have the po299 code on a ford Expedition. Can these two issues be related?
I have a 2016 Malibu 2.0 t I want to covert blow off valve external to hear sound how would I do this?
Flawless dawg!
Nice!
matthew placencia Thank you 🙏🏼
Good video! Thanks.
Any suggestions for someone dealing with turbo issues but no codes?
Sometimes I turn car on and get p0420 catylist low efficiency.
Otherwise nothing
I got 2012 chevy cruze 1.4t manual with a boost gauge; I still reach the stock psi of 14 when WOT but under normal driving its as if the car blows off/recirculates boost randomly even when I'm still excelerating with foot steadily held in place (usually about 3/4 throttle)
Thanks for the great info and video bro. I've got a 2017 Malibu with the 1.5 Turbo. Would like to send ya something to say thanks this video. Now to RockAuto for a new turbo. 🤘👊
Joe Waddell you don’t have to do that...
Just like, share, and subscribe 🤙🏼
How much would you charge me to replace my turbo with the new one? Im located in Long Beach bro. Let me know. i got a 2016 chevy cruze
Could the code p0299 ever be due to an intake manifold problem? My check valve is missing in mine and I’ve recently replaced the valve cover and had PCV issues. My car hasn’t really had issues with hesitation as much as some rough idling and strange noises, but the code that came up was P0299
I got the PO299. It just said underboost in turbo. Does this mean we have to replace the whole turbo? Is there such a thing as underboost and overboost in the chevy cruze code?
Thank you, this video was extremely helpful. I thought this was going to be an easy fix on my Cruze, turns out I don’t have the skills I thought. This helped though.
Great video 👍🏾
Dose oil feed line comes with new turbo ? Or u need to buy saperately
Do u recall if it came back? I seen other problems that set that code
great video
maybe its the blow off valve on the compressor side with a ruptured diaphragm , that little crack on the manifold is normal after just a few thousand miles.
My man working at the chevy dealer in glendora...i need a turbo how much at ur shop??
Can a damaged Intercooler cause this code?
My 2017 Chevy Cruze has 34000 miles on it. Check engine light came on today. And on star diagnostic said it has code p0299. Advised me to take it to dealer within one day. Not a lease led vehicle
I have a 2014 Chevy cruise I have the same code the P0299..... I definitely am not going to be able to replace anything I'm gonna have to take it to the shop my question is what happens if I don't have this issue fixed can somebody please elaborate?
Hi, my wastegate is shut closed tight. The actuator is not holding pressure causing the wastegate flapper to be stucked closed. But I don't know why I am getting a P0299 underboost code. If wastegate is stucked closed shouldn't i be having overboost ? The car runs but has no power slow acceleration. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Good Job
Have the p0229 code on my 2012 Sonic. Not looking forward to removing the turbo, but I guess it's just another lesson to learn when teaching yourself how to troubleshoot and repair one's vehicle.
Thanks for the vid!
it usually isn't the turbo that sets a P0299....that guy has no idea what hes talking about. A boost leak is most likely the culprit. www.cruzekits.com
Blitzvogel Good luck, let me know how it goes, it’s not too bad of a job
eddie in this video I’m explaining the different possible causes of the P0299. The reason I replaced the turbo assembly is because of warranty purposes, obviously if you have this code you want to go ahead and pinpoint th cause of it as opposed to replacing the entire turbo 👊🏼
@@HomieHektor Had alot of trouble getting the 8 main hollow nuts off. Soon to start removing the coolant to block junction. It's all so goddamn tight.
I don't understand, how and why is the crack at the waste gate flap normal? Wouldn't it leak some exhaust pressure past the crack and not spool the turbine as much? Ecm is looking at actual pressure and desired pressure so logically actual pressure would be below desired, an under boost condition
A 2014 Cruze needs a turbo replacement. Nice. Mine was replaced twice and probably needs it again. Mine is a 2011. GM really made a quality product here.
Gene Foster tell me about it,this was my fifth one that month...
The Homie Hektor Wow. Luckily, the first two of mine were under warranty. I’m replacing this one myself. They actually had to overhaul the engine right before the extended warranty expired. Terrible product for sure.
173k on my 2012 still going with factory turbo had to change oil feed line at 100k but I got the under boost code and my intercooler hose some how popped off
Crazy. My 1999 Passat 1.8t turbo has 246k miles and still has the original k03 Borg and Warner turbo. Also the car has been remapped since 143k miles to make 18 PSI and an additional 50 hp.
why couldn't my vw tiguans turbo be up front and accessible like this chevy! i have a bit of rattle on my turbo actuators arm and want to put a anti rattle clip on it but it's impossible with the amount of space underneath i can't get it on
Saigonboi 23 That’s a European design for you 😏
I have Astra H 1.7 I Have this error P0299-05 Low pressure Help it is egr or turbo
I appreciate your work bro. I have a question about this. We recently replaced the turbo on my sisters car for the second time. The “spindle” keeps breaking inside the turbo. It also give me a code for a bad cat. I’m afraid to replace the turbo again for the same result. Do you have any advice?
Buy a new car 😂
I’m sorry lol I was just trying to make ya laff 😁
But did u ever get things figured out? Did u replace the turbo a 3rd time?
This video is incredible, thanks to this video I can know which part I have to change to my encore 2015. But here is my question for how long can I keep running my car with this code P0299?
I need the answer to this question too, I hope we get an answer soon.
Do you work on turbos of Buicks??? If so where are you located??? Or do you know of any good shop in the O*C
Ariel Solorzano I have a Buick as well
I’m having this code on my 2011 Cruze and the turbo was just replaced... why??????
Hello another question where do i find the nuts you take off i been watching other video's and other mechanics say you have to replace them is that true?
Janette Ortiz I got mine at the dealership. I wouldn't say you have to, if you look closely I reused some of mine because the were seized onto the studs that go to the exhaust.
The Homie Hektor. Oh i see okay thanks.
have the P0299 code on 2012 LTZ...Chevy changed the waste gate solenoid...next day same code again. back to the garage next Fri sounds like it might need the turbo replaced?..will c
J Fike it's a very common problem on these engines, the wastegate valve starts binding like I showed and will need the whole assembly changed, unfortunately...
You will never fix it completely just drive it. You can spend $3k and in 20k miles you would have to do it again. I been driving 60k on a bad turbo the light stays off unless you go wide open. Just save your money the 2 mpg difference ain’t worth the $1-$3k to change it.
@@tammyforbes2101 it doesn’t affect the engine driving w a bad turbo ?
well done indeed!
How much was it & were did u get it i have a cherping sound coming from my cruise
My man liked the comment but didn’t answer 😂
I had p0299 I knew it was turbo, Same issue they quoted $1440 Canadian to replace turbo (approx 3 hours of labour) from Chevy dealer.
I asked about warranty and turns out I had power train warranty so it is covered.
And I don’t have to pay $75 for them to diagnose what I already figured was wrong. :p
Next time after warranty will have half the money and just do it myself.
Hey man do you have the link to the gm article about the crack in the turbo? Btw great video!
Juan Carrasco I don’t, it was in th GM SITE, when I was working at Chevy. It might be a TSB now. Thanks...
The audio sounds different in this one, but still good information. i like the tip you give about the socket because i don't have external torx sockets. Thanks.
David Bautista I recorded this one on the iPhone 6
How much does it cost to have this done at a shop? Rough estimate
i have a 2018 elantra sport turbo, and the turbo seems to work when it wants to, one minute the car is fast and the next its gutless , what could the problem be, i also am throwing no codes.
Your ac is probably on when its gutless
@@derekwilson8580 no dude I had a heap of problems with the car since I wrote this , I'm in the process of suing Hyundai Canada and I've opened up a camvap case against them, I basically got a lemon.
Hey man! Do wastegate acuators tend to not work, i dont see mine working so its not opening the wastegate, so maybe a vacuum restriction? Or just a bad wastegate acuator?
Uriel Aguirre First check for vacuum to the actuator. if you have a vacuum pump, use it to activate the wastegate. If it doesn’t open, disconnect it and try moving it manually... you’ll know if it’s seized up 😎
@@HomieHektor after checking i know the actuator is working.
@@HomieHektor how can i reach you?
Hello. I have a 2011 Chevy Cruze 1.4L with 140,000 miles. The check engine light came on for P0299. Car runs great. I do have a slow leak at the turbo oil feed line. It is time for an oil change. Would I have had a warning for the turbo?
i just watched a video on a guy that changed his turbo oil line, and fixed his problem because the o ring gets smashed and it leaked oil. Another guy said he changed his air filter and it fixed it lol
Hey have the same car and problem how much does it cost to fix this problem.
How much coolant and oil can be expected to be lost during the turbo change?
Where can I get yo information so I can have my car looked at for this same issue
Instagram: Homie.Hektor
Just got this code on my 15 Sonic... I have just a little over 47k miles and JUST bought the car about three months ago. Do you know if this is covered under the warranty? I really don’t have the extra money to fix it myself, I just bought a house and this happens lol..
Tyler Watt I believe so, take it to your local dealership and tell them that you’re bringing it in for the turbo issue. They’ll let you know if it’s under warranty or not.
Nice vid man, quick question, can the flab be lubed up with high temp nickel grease to avoid sticking and binding?? Saves you a turbo😉
Sounds like a good idea, but I don’t think so...it’s sealed.
Oka, is this a K03???
Isaac M 🤷🏻♂️
Im getting a P0234 Engine Overboost, any ideas? Maybe the waste gate is stuck close?
Pretty much yes. A wastegate staying stuck open will cause an underboost condition, but a wastegate staying stuck close will cause a overboost problem.
do you know what the price for the new part was?
Likes comment but doesnt reply
6 to $900 depending on where you get it from. Just got mine from NAPA for 700.
My Chevy Cruze is a 2017 and does not have a turbo. Basic model
I own a 2015 Mercedes Cla 45 Amg
And this code just came on
The car runs fine din’t loose power or any unusually noises, Hopefully they don’t quote me 10k or anything crazy
What kinda issues would you face if that actuator was messing up? Can I test it somehow before I buy a new turbo?
At this time I'm convinced my very old probably stock oil feed line has clogged itself because I just learn those tend to bake under the exhaust manifold; but I won't have the tools to find out for a couple days. Once I check that out if it's clear and I can't find a way to test that actuator then I guess it's turbo time 🤷
Ain't got the money to buy parts and pay a shop to diagnose and labor it. Don't think the car will make it to a shop for diagnostics without risking further more expensive damage. Just gunna have to rough it on this one and get learnt. Should been fixing my own shit years ago 😅👍🤷
I wish you would do a tutorial on all the steps when putting it together.
Next one 👍🏼
how much would it be to install a new turbo?
Kelvin leal it depends on the car, it can run from 3-5 hours of labor plus the cost of the turbo...
2008 audi a4 2.0T and already bought the turbo online.
What about a p2261 turbo/super charger by pass valve
I heard I can just replace the actuator? Do you think that would work
I’m having this code on my car WITH a brand new turbo???? HELP!!!!
How much is the replacement part?
Alfredo garci maybe like $300-$500 depends on where you get it bro
Ice video . Thanx
Nice
Tbone productions Gracias 👊🏼
So that crack on the turbo is normal??? The new turbo got the same crack too?
According to GM, it’s normal for the turbo to crack…because well GM 🤷🏻♂️
So what will happen if i drive my car with underboost code?
Can i drive the car like this ?
What if the turbine goes loose, no choice but to get a new turbo?
waiting on this answer as well
el mismo problema de mi auto wow!
hi
👏👏👏
How much did the turbochanger cost
This one was under warranty 👍🏼
Was there any noise when the car was turned on because my car makes a really loud noise and as i drive it i have no boost power takes a while to get to a 45 50 miles per hour and i feel like I'm forcing it.. Took it to a mechanic he said it's the turbo that's the code he got but on these turbo videos i been watching on CZcams i don't hear a noise like mine. 😞
Janette Ortiz this one didn't have any noise, but I have worked on some with noise, and that's probably because the turbine came loose. It's a different issue but same fix.
The Homie Hektor
Oh gosh well my mechanic wants me to order the turbo so we can get starting on the fix this weekend so just asking because i don't want to play guessing games and keep ordering parts as we go i need my car up and running 😞😞
The Homie Hektor thank you so much for your reply.
Janette Ortiz Turbo assembly should take care of your issue, once the catalytic converter is removed, you'll be able to see the turbine. 🤙🏼
Janette Ortiz you're welcome, good luck.
How many miles did this car have ?
El16100 67,391miles
The Homie Hektor dang mine has 126k already I probably should change it as well
1-800 -PAPAJOHNS of it ain't broke don't fix it 😎
So what are saying is to spray lube the valve.
Yeah, should be part of regular maintenance. Recommend every day😎
Hey homie I have a 2011 and its making a whistling noise with the p0299 code. Did yours whistle or chirp?
When I had a whistle like noise it was the black cover you see that says “eco tech” on it. (Camshaft cover?) i ordered the part from the local Chevy dealer and replaced it myself
nice video
Did you listen to your recording afterwards? Audio is terrible😮
A 2014 turbo gone bad already that's messed up wasn't under warranty or recall???
Eric Kelly it was under warranty, common issue on these Chevy Cruzes
The Homie Hektor ok I just never seen dealership let u have the new part & install yourself thought u purchased it yourself I watched video guess I missed the important part my bad it's still a good video
What a in America he drive a 1.4L engine?
I have the same anlizer
Cood joob
this is the only cause of the code P0299?
No,egr valve,boost control valve,map sensor,oil,turbo actuator and other things can cause P0299
Paca Lazarovska i find a crack in the manifold like in the video, i can only change de manifold?
Paca, where can i find literature of other causes of this code?
The manifold $80, wastegate actuator$25 and turbo cartridge $100 can all be purchased separately.
Hice vídeo thank u
Hector Lopez 👍🏼 Thanks Bro 🙌🏼
I put a whole new turbo and still doesn’t work
5/16 fits tighter
My 2014 chevy cruze threw that code a couple times and clears itself idk why.
Reubenator 94 it’s intermittent...
Had a 0299 code on my Cruze. It had cracked around the blow off. Very common problem.
not the turbo charger
@@Barnurse had to replace turbo.
Needs a new turbo my 2017 did
2017 Buick Encore, 45k miles has The same issues, this must be a common issue with the 1.4 ? Wow Chevy! / GM should have Engineniered this to last a tad bit longer,
You could have just changed the waste gate actuator...
DxDiagMT it was under warranty 😎
Why? Was it not opening the wastegate?
DxDiagMT the actuator controls it, but it was binding 👍🏼
Uriel Aguirre changing the actuator would have done absolutely nothing
@@HomieHektor im not getting vacuum to the wastegate actuator? I checked intake and its dirty. You think a restricted intake can cause no vacuum to the actuator?
Chevy shud have just supercharged these cars
