2015+ 2.0 Cruz Turbo Diesel

[MikeOD]

Is there any plan to offer support for the 2.0 turbo diesel in the new Cruz?

I would like to know as well as I plan on getting one.

2015 Chevy Cruze 2.0L Turbo Diesel purchased!

Will HPT even pull the E47 BIN so I can send it to support?

OEM Trans & Torque Management programming is noticeably horrible even by the non hot rodder.

I was told there isn't enough of a demand for tuning support.

So I purchased the 2015 Diesel Cruze

It is the worst driving production car I have had the displeasure to drive EVER.

the need to tune this car is EXTREMELY high... market.... not sure

So do either
A. Set it on fire
B. trade it in

???????

I've driven quite a few vehicles over my time and in no way shape or form do I find my Cruze diesel to be bad to drive. I wish I had tuning available for it, but there simply isn't. The only good tuning for it that I know of is Trifecta. The transmission calibration is designed to be as smooth as possible and the system built into the trans which engages neutral at stops can be odd until you're used to it. Contact the guy from Trifecta and his upgrade will improve it quite a bit. I am always surprised when someone buys a car and hates it and then blames the lack of tuning as to why they want to sell it. When you buy a car or truck you test drive it. If you don't like it on the test drive, don't buy it. I highly doubt it drove fantastic when you test drove it then went to shit the day after. I bought one for my wife about a year and a half ago and it has been a problem free great vehicle. It drives much better than the gas engine versions.

I understand it may be a bit underwhelming, but what was the thought process that lead to you purchasing what you yourself describe as the "the worst driving production car I have had the displeasure to drive EVER"?

The Cruze 2.0 2015 has a split nature. It drives good some days and bad Bad BAD other days.
Mine drove great on the test drive the day I purchased it but at full temp in traffic it is a POS.
I did an EFILive tune with a professional diesel expert and it ironed most of the issues out with it.
But the car is Pure Junk.

BTW EFILive only supports flashing of the E47 Cruze TD but does not provide a definition file or a base calibration.

someone on the efi forum made a cax file which allows for tuning them. i think they even linked in a stock tune you can use to flash in.
