g`day had quite a few probs with this car when i 1st bought it ..had a horrible noise when cold .sounded like a real metal bearing noise ,,nissan said turbo..so i had the turbo replaced at my cost ,still the same noise.took my original turbo to the diesel speciast an they told me the turbo was fine .$750.00 door stop now, the car wouldn`t get off the mark like it used to .realy lagging till the turbo kicked ~2200rpm ,i then took the car to this special about the noise he heard it and said "I know what that is " he went on to tell me it was a manifold leak at #1 they machined the manifold and bingo no noise ,,I swore black an blue this was a machanical noise it sounded like a destroyed bearing when cold (the misses was embarrassed to drive away from school (she`s a teacher)but alass i was wrong ..but still have the issue of no bottom end power .an being auto seems to rev out a bit too much before gear change..not finished.when you drive 110km with cruze ctl it seems to drop gears to far it will go from 2300 rpm to 4500+ wich scares the shite out me ..atm have just cleaned MAF an disconnected battery so if anyone could help I will put up a carton for the forum

Chrysler, It looks like you are up for a new MAF as yours isn't sealing up properly, and this might resolve some of your problems.
