2010 Chevrolet Cruze!

[cbcnestormn]

Korek my friend.

The fact that our friend RE was not injured seriously is probably proof that the Cruze is as safe a car you can buy at the same price and body size.

And if I may hazard a guess, that front chassis cross member mentioned as having been ordered is better replaced with new parts, an outside shop will always think that metal parts can be hammered / stretched back to form BUT the shock absorbing quality of the metal that is part of th safety feature of the car will be lost....so its probably worth the wait. I say this to hope to understand what really matters above all aside of acknowledging that there is room for improvement in how repairs can be done in less time.

Hi mga sirs newbie here po. Got my cruze last may and nakaka 1000kms na ako. Ask ko lang po kung natural na 7-9kms/L ang fuel consumption? Thank you!

some of us started with 6 or 7km/liter hanggang sa nag-improve. Currently, am enjoying a 10km/liter city driving and 10-12 or sometimes upto 14km/liter.

wow! nice! sana maging ganyan na din ang cruze ko sir! nakabasa ako ng thread dito about yung rubber tube na ginawa sa aircon, i think it's the same idea na dinagawa ng madami sa lahat ng type ng aircon. makasubok nga nito. I asked the service dept about this and sabi nila may mga gumawa na daw and maganda daw talaga ito. ang sarap talaga ng ride ng cruze! worth every piso!

Wow! Post pics please!! ganda ng mags ni chelsey malamang! sir, did you get the rims at the casa?

[Chevyboy]

Hi guys, just had my cabin filter changed from the casa. Grabe, kaya pala mahina aircon ng cruze.. Ang dumi na ng cabin filter..!! Ngayon sobra lakas na ng blower ngayon simula nung napalitan na ng bago. Tip lang nung taga service is, try blowing the filter every month para daw parati ito nalilinis and para di magastos sa pagpapalit n filter! Woow!!! Loving my cruze more!!! tinuro pa sakun kung san pinapalitan ang filter... Kaya ayos na ayos talaga!! salamat chevy!!

how do you actually blow the filter every month? kelangan ba dalhin pa sa casa or kaya na DIY?

[jrjuan]

Hi cruze owners,

meron ba kayo nung window visors installed sa cruze nyo? as in may gamit ba siya or more on porma lang?

plus, if i will be getting a moroccan blue na cruze, ano ba mas ok, chrome na visor or black?

Hi sir, the service manager was kind enough to teach me how.
1.open glove compartment at passenger side.
2. Remove the hydraulic clip at the right side of the compartment.
3. Lift the glove compartment slightly and press both side walls until the side button(locks) disengage from the dashboard attachment
4. You will see the black rectangular plastic behind the glove box has been pulled down.
5. Open it by pulling the lock above the cabin filter.(mejo mahirap sa umpisa at ingat sa matatalas na plastic)
6. Open the cabin and you will see the filter inside. (white paper like material)
7. Pull it out and have it blown by air. Then
Put it back. Mind the arrow on the filter. This points out the direction of air coming from the outside into the filter then the blower.

Pwede po ipalinis sa casa, abutan nyo na lang yung mekaniko na gagawa
kung yun ang gusto nyo.

*guys i was warned not to use a substitute filter than may cause damage to the eveporator due to poor filtration of air. Mura lang sa casa ang filter. 900php i think. So better be safe rather than suffer the consequences in the future. mahal ang pyesa ng aircon kapag nasira ito. I have a friend in the USA that explained all these filter mechanisms. Kaya natakot din ako.

Just to ask:

How many Cruze owners namatay battery after just over 1 year? I know 1 year lang warranty ng battery, pero I've owned 5 brand new cars na, and sa awa ng diyos yung Cruze lang yung namantay yung battery after 1 year and 1 month. . . tamang tamang pag expire ng warranty. . .

Those who have the "Rocket" brand of battery beware. . . pag medyo mahina na start up ng Cruze palitan nyo na. Mahal din yung replacement Motolite Gold na battery - 7k! Parang 3SM na yung price. But cheaper vs the 8.5k price the casa was asking.

Another gripe is fuel economy. haven't budged from 6-7km/l city driving, though admittedly in traffic.

6-7km/l? the cruze is this much of a gas guzzler? woah! this makes me take a second look on the elantra nalang or the fiesta!

dyan nyo sir malalaman na wala tlga problem sa ac ng cruze natin. madumi lang tlga ang filter kya mahina ang blower. hindi na masakit ang gumastos ng new filter let say every year ka magpalit kasi hindi naman sya ganun kamahal tlga and I think nasa 800-900 ang filter. Regarding naman sa paglilinis ng filter Sir, ang ginagawa ko kasi, monthly or twice a month pinapahanginan ko sa carwash ang filter ko, hindi naman din kasi ganun kahirap tanggalin sa cabin kaya hindi ka tatamarin na linisan/pahanginan to, at pinasasabay ko na din pahanginan ang engine. double purpose diba? hehehehe...

We are considering the cruze... To replace our swift, ano ba mga Issues sa Cruze that I should know off? Ano ang consumo ng 1.8 AT? Parts daw mahal? Hirap ba parts sa labas? Pms cost? Diba every 10k, how much naman in average ang 10, 20, 30, 40k?

[Chevyboy]

Ay tama po kayo sir. What i meant was, pollen filters will prevent the bringing out of the evaporator for cleaning. Nas madali na mamaintain na malinis ang evaporator dahil nafifilter na ang mga dumi. i stand corrected po di nasisira ang evaporator kahit wala filter.

[xperiarc]

Good morning guys. I am planning to get a cruze this month or next month. The problem is I can't decide between 1.8LT or 2.0 vcdi. Worth it ba ang 100k+ price difference lalo na FC and performance ng vcdi sa ecotec? And lastly, VGT ba ang turbo ng vcdi engine ng cruze?

Thank you in advance.

[jrjuan]

is it just me or parang hindi sulit yung LT version?

I mean very minimal difference lang diba? or am i missing something else?

leather seats
17" wheels
rain sensing wipers
auto dimming rear view mirror
