@@killawattgarage it took us two weeks to fix my car but I definitely agree, I wouldn't trade it for the world. Thank you again sir for the awesome video!!

Thanks very much for your video. Of all the similar videos on TH-cam, an Aussie one is the best. I have a 1.6 Turbo, and the turbo inlet pipe is directly above the thermostat. This pipe is impossible, at least for me, to remove, to gain access to the thermostat. Would you have any advice?
I have a 2010 chevy aveo with the same set up for the thermostat and housing. Ive replaced it 3 times. And each time with in a month the plastic housing cracks. By chance would you know whats happening
would you know the model number of the o-ring seal that goes on the metal pipe? after much searching I cannot find it, I believe it's called the oil cooler outlet pipe o-ring, everywhere I ask nobody seems to know the model number.
@@killawattgarage Thanks, I have figured it out and its the same. I'm in Sydney and the GM part number is 25192228 for SriV 1.6 Turbo Hatch. Repco has completely metal alloy housing made by Tridon. part number TT725-221K
Hi, I'm from Argentina, your video is very good. Thanks a lot. I give you a little bit ... how many liters in total does the circuit carry? .. what percentage of coolant ?. From already thank you very much ?
6.5L is the refill capacity. Follow the instructions for your chosen coolant for the percentage as these change between brands and countries. Thanks for the questions.
Where the hose fits into the thermostat there is a plastic clip that can be pushed off. It pushes of at a direction of 90' to the pipe. See the picture in the link with the close up of the fitting. www.amazon.com/ACDelco-25192905-Original-Equipment-Throttle/dp/B014VZH8LS
This atrocious plastic component, which seems to have "built-in obsolescence" and, when it fails, can cause catastrophic engine damage, can be replaced by an all-metal alternative which is available if you Google it. Why GM persevered with this horrible component heaven only knows although cynics might say because of the money involved when, not if, it fails.
Those plastic housing are crap. In Walmart they sell aluminium housings. And then, thermostats replacements 2 out of 3 times get stock. The solution is to use the Cruze (Sonic, Trax, etc.,) housing, and put a Chevy Volt or Cadillac ELS thermostat. Dorman sell a good replacement, never buy MotoRad. Those Chevy are Latinamerica's #1 sell car, not like USA, where people don't buy cars made in their own country. So, if you want an experienced mechanic, talk with your closest Argentinian or Puertorrican friend 😉
@@killawattgarage one more thing, be careful when turning the thermostat to take it out, because the temperature sensor is delicate. The part # for the thermostat for Chevy Volt is 55593035 from Dorman or 902-2080 from GM and around $40.
I am having hard time with my cruze. Costing me $$$. Definitely your videos are a life saver. Thanks a lot. ❤
Glad it helps.
Yes indeed. Thanks mate
Thank you this helped my dad and I bond over fixing my cruze. This makes life just a bit easier!!
Awesome .....enjoy spending time with you're dad and fixing your car. You're making memories.

is the surface flat?
@@killawattgarage i clean the old gasket out and make sure to remove any old dirt. There is no pitting or damage i can see on the old housing .
@@Arknog89 do the attached hoses allow for engine movement
@Killa Watt Garage yes the hoses are the correct length. Is there a different version of the housing thats not plastic.? Ive looked but to no avail .
would you know the model number of the o-ring seal that goes on the metal pipe? after much searching I cannot find it, I believe it's called the oil cooler outlet pipe o-ring, everywhere I ask nobody seems to know the model number.
Bump. Would also like this info please.
It looks like there are universal O ring kits, does anyone know of one that has this specific O ring?
AC Delco Engine oil cooler seal Part # 25194222, its not a normal O ring
great video! do you know 2013 model with 1.6 turbo engine uses the same part as the one on your video ?
No, sorry too many variations across countries and models, but it will be similar

How do you clean up coolant that leaks out?
Truck wash and a high pressure cleaner. Thanks for the comment.
Would a Chevy cruze 2013 ltz 1.4 eco engine have this variant ? Please let me know, that you.
this video is for the 1.8 the 1.4 is similar but different
Great video thanks
No problem 👍

Do you happen to know how much different when is to do on a Diesel Cruze
It would be very similar but different parts
At 3:14 what is that hose called? Or a part number?
This line travels from the throttle body to the thermostat housing and thats how I typically ask for it. Try googling GM25192905
@@killawattgarage thanks man, replaced and it fixed my issue!

Informative.
Approximate time for the entire process?
30-45min from bonnet open to bonnet shut
I have a code 4 and gauge of temperature seems to go up And down a little. What can I do?
Check coolant levels and temp sensor. Don't ignore this as you will overheat your engine.
Nice to see auto manufacturers are ripping customers off intentionally.
Nothing lasts for ever ...... and they know this!!
muy buen aprendizaje gracias
No problem thanks
Good Video these Cruze vehicles are a nightmare of fixes Im afraid. $800 fix at a dealership!..not gonna happen!
At least they are easy to work on
Verry verry good video
I have 2012 chevy cruze 1.8 manuelle
If you have more vidéos send to me please
Thank's freind
I have recorded a head gasket change, will be uploading soon. Also about to pull an engine thinking of recording it?? Thanks for the comment.
@@killawattgarage Great effort I'm excited and waiting.
Good luck
How much Nm can I use? 8 or 10Nm is ok?
About 8-10 Nm is good.
@@killawattgarage Thanks.
Is this for 2016 Cruze ?..it seems some have a different type of housing as well
This was a 2011, with the 1.8 petrol engine.
As below. Many thanks :)
cheers
thank you..
No problem, hope it helped
