What causes the Chevrolet Cruze to jerk and surge when accelerating at low speeds?
1 Answers
If it is the dual-clutch version of the Cruze, this situation is quite normal. For the Cruze equipped with an AT transmission, this issue may arise due to overdue transmission fluid replacement. It is recommended to check whether the transmission fluid needs to be replaced if this occurs. Below is some relevant information: 1. The Cruze is a compact sedan under Chevrolet, with dimensions of 4666 mm in length, 1807 mm in width, and 1460 mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2700 mm. 2. The Cruze is powered by a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine and a 1.4L turbocharged engine. (1) The 1.5L naturally aspirated engine delivers a maximum power of 84 kW at 6600 rpm and a maximum torque of 146 Nm at 4000 rpm. This engine features direct fuel injection technology and utilizes an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block, which reduces engine weight, thereby improving vehicle handling and fuel economy. It is paired with either a 6-speed manual transmission or a 6-speed automatic transmission. (2) The 1.4L turbocharged engine produces a maximum power of 110 kW at 5600 rpm and a maximum torque of 240 Nm between 2000 and 4000 rpm. This engine also incorporates direct fuel injection technology and an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. It is mated to a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
