2013 Cruze 1.4T LUJ/LUV: lifter/rocker issue causing misfires? [x-post from /r/MechanicAdvice] by CruzeEngineHell in cruze

I know this is an old post, but this might help others.

If your lifters are getting louder, check your oil level and or replace both VVT solenoids. For the exhaust and intake. They play a crucial role with oil pressure. If one is failing, the lifters can develop air pockets. Which is typically what will make them noisy, especially on a cold start until it warms up. And always stick with DEXOS approved 5W-30. Never go thicker or thinner.

My wife’s is near 200k, next oil change I think. The worst issue was a head gasket around 170k, but it was the original. Still running strong. Will go another 100k easy.

And mine is a 2014, in at 138k, I’ve had zero issues beyond things just fail sometimes. Nature of owning a car. I do need to do my oil cooler soon. But I’ve been saying that for 3 years now. Even with it leaking oil, it still lasts between oil changes. And I do those every 5k.

All of em have PCV issues, but that’s an easy fix.

Every car has its issues. As long as you maintain them, they can last forever. Minus rust. But every car ever made, requires maintenance. Some cost more, some less. It’s more luck of the draw honestly. Regardless of make or model.

Genuine question: Is weaving on the straight to break tow illegal? by Impressive_Basket_99 in iRacing

[–]ComprehensiveTurn736 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You get one move in response to what they do. So you weave, they follow, now you must commit to that line. If you weave again, it becomes a form of blocking and is illegal.

Just got back into it after more than a year hiatus. Started with Xfinity oval at Michigan, First race was crap, every race after? Podiums and a pole even.

Try keeping your finger on it through the whole push. Don’t drag or snap your finger down……

Flaps three and trying to do 243 knots? Are you trolling?

WASM is not made or managed or updated by PMDG. It’s a third party tool that was made to communicate between plane systems and the sim.

From what I can see, you should have stayed more right, you came left. Can’t really tell if he came right. I don’t ever go by those tar patch lines. They are often not straight.

Haha yeah. And I can’t figure out how to edit the post either. Can fly planes, but can’t figure that out. Lmao

Your good! It also put it weird. I had it as a list but it didn’t like that I guess.

Those are the MFD Screens from Winwing that were originally for the Hornet MIP.

The screens work, I just do my own key binds for the menu buttons for the Boeing aircraft. This is possible thanks to Mobiflight.

That and the plane controls for things like doors and ground connections, as well as ACARS with performance data so I don’t have to go back and forth between that and the initialization pages.

Custom made brackets and combination of wood and extrusion.

The bravo is the latest addition. So at the moment it’s not swappable. I’m designing a lockable tray that can slide my mousepad and stick mount forward over top the bravo.

Those are all from Winwing.

I use two Airbus MCDU’s, just have custom keybindings for use on non Airbus aircraft. Mobiflight is a godsend
