Chevrolet parts reviews
5-30 mobile one. Thats the only brand of oil I let touch my cars.
AcDelco filters and Mobil 1 filters are always good options to pick from. Don't get the 4 dollar Fram, please.
GM recommended 5-30 pre 2019. Post 19 they changed to 0-40. Reason is emissions. Do a Google search and you'll see there is alot of skuttlebutt out there about using thinner weight oils and the lack of protection.
I have a 23 Z71. Took it in for sweet smell (coolant) after driving. They did a leak test and replaced the upper rad hose. Said it was a common isssue.
Having gone from a WRX to a Chevy bolt, it is a very different experience. The WRX was a thousand times more fun. The turbo constantly begged you to go faster. It cornered flat and came with super sticky tires so you could go around a corner at a crazy speed. The bolt has solid straight line acceleration, but low rolling resistance tires make it much less fun, and slower in a lap around a track.
Replaced the rear view camera (under GM's used car warranty, in 2020)
Brakes. Calipers and rotors. Shop told me there was corrosion, and that spraying them with clean water in winter might help alleviate this. They de ice in winter where I live, so corrosion can be worse.
I had a brake caliper seize, which given the high usage of regen and the salty roads in NY isn't surprising. I've also had a wheel bearing go out.
I just sold my 2018 Cruze with 96k miles on it for 2k bc it no longer runs bc of timing chain issues
