Problem sorted... apparently what can happen is... if you start your car shift it 10 metres and then turn it off and leave it... It can trap fuel in the system and flood it... it will not start unless you put the accelerator to the floor... common problem...

Please look this up. I also have a 2016 chevy cruze and have been fighting to get something done due to this same issue. Please call the GM corporate offices and complain as well file with the NHTSA and BBB if need be. They have blown me off and don't care to help. Below is the PIP bulletin for this. https://gm.oemdtc.com/7914/pip5507b-st…

Shakes between 1500-2000RPM code 84

Chevrolet Cruze 2012 Hatchback  60000 miles
Hello

I bought a Holden cruze turbo diesel 2012 6 speed manual transmission (same engine as Chevrolet cruze).
My car shakes back and forth between 1500-2000RPM, sometimes late response or no power when I accelerate, or accelerates alone when I use the accelerator. Code 84, DPF, engine lights flashing

Have you ever encountered these problems?

Won't start

I hop into the car to leave for work but the engine won't start. No sparks so I know it's not the battery. The engine light is on.

Cam shaft faulty

Chevrolet Cruze 2009 Auto sedan 9000 miles
Hey has anyone else had the issue of the cam shaft playing up? I've replaced the sensor twice and the whole cam unit itself... now the engine light is back on... running sluggish even though everything has been replaced... the solenoids have been cleaned out and everything is near new in this engine... what could it possibly be... !??? I've taken it back to Holden and they said it was the whole cam shaft so it's replaced and now the engine light is back on... getting over this
