π§ Now, about that engine...
This was a 2016 Chevy Trax 1.4L Turbo Ecotec that we recently serviced after the customer reported increased oil consumption and an oil leak.
We initially suspected an intake manifold gasket leak, but knowing these engines are notorious for PCV system failures, we ordered the parts to address that possibility. Sure enough, our suspicions were confirmed!
We installed an upgraded Dorman intake manifold and valve cover kit to address the common failure. We also discovered a failed factory wire crimp at the throttle body connector, so we replaced that connector as well.
Another customer back on the road and another job completed! πͺ
Thanks to everyone who participated in our giveaway! Keep following for more fun challenges, giveaways, and repairs!
