Chevrolet Cruze cars are equipped with disc brakes on both axles. Brake pads for Cruise have only two wheel sizes - 195/65/R15 or 205/60/R16, which are usually shortened to R15 and R16. Accordingly, there is differentiation in size brake discs and the standard sizes of the pads themselves.

Chevrolet Cruze brake disc sizes for R15:

• front brake disc - diameter 276 mm, thickness 26 mm;
• rear brake disc - diameter 268 mm, thickness 12 mm.

Chevrolet Cruze brake disc sizes for R16:

• front brake disc - diameter 300 mm, thickness 26 mm;
• rear brake disc - diameter 292 mm, thickness 12 mm.

Determine which brake pads to install on a particular Chevrolet Cruze, you can do it in several ways: try to match it by the car’s VIN code, measure the brake disc, or look at the shape/size of the old pads (to buy the same ones).

As mentioned above, the differences (minor, by the way) brake pads Cruz associated with different sizes wheels Moreover, this only applies to the front brake pads.

The original front pads for the Chevrolet Cruze with R15 have part numbers 13301207 or 13412272. They are quite small, but still differ in shape and size from the front pads 13301234 or 13412810 for the Cruze with R16.

The rear brake pads, although they have different original catalog numbers - 13300867 or 13411380 for the R15, and 13319294 or 13411383 for the R16 - have the same standard sizes and analogues from other manufacturers, unlike the front pads, the same ones are offered for them.

To summarize, we can say that the most popular pads for the Chevrolet Cruze are analogues from TRW. Popular, but not the best. They are described as hard pads that provide excellent braking, at least at first. But then, as users note, the creaking of the TRW pads develops into a nasty sound, as if the pads “become glass.” But overall it's the best pads in terms of price/quality ratio.

If the car owner is interested first in the price, then he pays attention to Korean brake pads for Cruz, from the manufacturer Sangsin. They're good enough for what they are relatively low cost , but are inferior in characteristics to many other analogues.

Looking for excellent quality brake pads turn to Ate products. Their pads have a lot positive feedback. They are characterized as “very cool”, high quality, soft, almost silent. You literally have to pay for this - the price of Ate pads, although lower than the original pads, is higher than all other analogues.

As for original Chevrolet Cruze brake pads, then everything is quite simple. Standard pads have good quality, but their cost is much higher than their analogues, so the original is bought quite rarely.

The F16D3 engine produces 109 hp. With. power. The Chevrolet Cruze version with F16D3 and manual transmission accelerates to hundreds in 12.5 seconds, and with an automatic transmission in 13.5 seconds. This is a four-cylinder 16-valve engine, which is built on the basis of the 1.4-liter F14D3. Equipped with two top-mounted camshafts, timing belt drive, hydraulic compensators, recirculation system exhaust gases EGR. The cylinder block is made of cast iron. Weaknesses F16D3 are the same as F14D3: valves, injectors, thermostat, EGR. Also, some car owners complain about oil leaks that appear around the valve covers.

The F16D4 engine is already designed for 124 hp. With. An injector with distributed fuel injection is used for the fuel supply system. The service life of the rollers and timing belt has been increased to 150 thousand km. This Chevrolet Cruze engine is simple and quite reliable. To make it more powerful and reliable than its predecessor F16D3, they used a VVT system that regulates valve timing. The manufacturer has solved the problem with hanging valves. Hydraulic compensators were replaced by calibrated glasses. As a result, the F16D4 became an analogue of the Opel A16XER engine. The engine life of the Chevrolet Cruze 1.6 varies within 250 thousand km.

Chevrolet Cruze 1.6 breakdowns

1. The Check Engine light is on on a Chevrolet Cruze.

The error itself does not mean anything. To understand the cause of the malfunction, you need to do diagnostics. Among the mechanical defects, the most common is the breakdown of the camshaft gear. Other typical causes of the error:

• Wiring melting.
• Faulty sensors.
• Catalyst clogging.
• Misfire (error P0300).

In 90% of cases, misfires and clogged EGR valves are caused by low-grade gasoline. The life of the spark plugs and the operation of the EGR system, which reduces the toxicity of exhaust gases, depend on the quality of the fuel. The EGR valve becomes clogged with carbon deposits, causing the car to simply stop moving. When misfires occur, they even appear. strange vibrations, speed jumps - Cruz is shaking. Cleaning the injector with RVS Master Injector Cleans Ic helps. The composition restores the spray pattern, cleans nozzles of carbon deposits, removes tar deposits, stabilizes idling, normalizes acceleration, eliminates dips when accelerating. You can rinse fuel system yourself, without using expensive hardware cleaning at a car service center.

How to reduce the likelihood of an error Check Engine in the future? The answer is obvious: correct, timely maintenance and refueling at proven gas stations. If you are not sure about the quality of gasoline at the gas station, use the gasoline additive FuelEXx Gazoline. It increases the octane number by 3–5 units and optimizes combustion processes. Due to the use of the additive, consumption and carbon formation are reduced, the Chevrolet Cruze becomes more dynamic, and engine wear is minimized.

2. Valve cover gasket leaking

At the initial stages, tightening the mounting bolts helps eliminate the leak. But if the gasket is damaged, it will have to be replaced. Due to a leaking valve cover gasket, oil enters the spark plug wells, and this has a bad effect on the service life. high voltage wires. If oil also gets onto the exhaust manifold, this can lead to a fire under the hood. Please note that leaks are also caused by overheating with further warping of the cylinder head. Therefore, before changing the valve cover gasket, you need to do a thorough diagnosis.

3. Problems with the camshaft of the Chevrolet Cruze engine

If the pressure has dropped in the lubrication system of the F16D3 or F16D4 engine, the reason may lie in wear of the camshaft bearing journals or seats. When the camshaft cams wear out, the valves begin to knock. The decision to repair is made depending on the cause of the malfunction. With increased wear camshaft change with subsequent adjustment of the timing belt.

4. Broken spark plugs

In Russian operating conditions, despite the manufacturer’s recommendations, it is advisable to change spark plugs every 30–40 thousand km. If the gap between the electrodes changes, the ignition pattern of the mixture in the cylinders will be disrupted. This will affect the consumption, smoothness and power of the engine.

5. Sensor malfunction and more global problems

The formation of fuel-air mixture. Therefore, with increased fuel consumption, the Chevrolet Cruze 1.6 requires comprehensive diagnostics. What is considered the norm? Average consumption in models with engines F16D3 and F16D4 and manual transmission should be within the range of 8-9 liters per 100 km (for an automatic – 10-11 liters per hundred).

If your Cruze consumes more, you should consider checking it technical condition. It often turns out that increased consumption Chevrolet Cruze is provoked by serious malfunctions. For example, low compression in the cylinders. And this already indicates wear of the cylinder-piston group or the occurrence of piston rings. For in-place repair For Chevrolet Cruze 1.6 CPG, we recommend using the composition RVS Master Ga4. It is optimally suited, since the oil volume in the F16D3 and F16D4 engines is 3.75 liters.

​An engine additive is a friction geomodifier that restores working surfaces, thereby normalizing compression, reducing consumption, and reducing the amount of noise and vibration. The engine additive from RVS Master forms a metal-ceramic protective layer. This happens in 4 stages. The microrelief of the mating surfaces is cleaned with particles of the composition, and then the ground particles are cold-worked on it. Next, the Fe atoms are replaced by Mg atoms - a coating homogeneous with the metal is formed, which is resistant to temperature changes. The solid layer holds an oil film near the surface, which protects contact parts from wear. Its service life ranges from 70 to 120 thousand km. RVS Master does not affect the physical properties, chemical composition and base oil additives: cleaning, fuel-saving, anti-friction, dehydrogenating.

Note: When using an engine additive, make sure that the BC is made of cast iron. If it is made of aluminum, the atomic substitution reaction will not occur, which means that a metal-ceramic protective layer will not form; there will be ordinary grinding and cleaning of deposits. If there is one for your engine repair pistons, which means the block can be bored - it is made of cast iron. And then the RVS Master additive is perfect for in-place repairs.
