I have a 2015 Chevy Cruze LT with 213,000 miles. I took it in a trip and was struggling up hills the whole way. It was jerking and shifting hard up the hills. Once home I got a check engine light. That later turned off. I got the transmission fluid changed. I went in to get a tune up and they said I had coolant in my cylinders. I have not had any light turn on in a month. I was told it was a gasket or block problem and was recommended an engine replacement. I took it to another shop for a second opinion. They said the car was fine that it ran good. I’m not sure what to do anymore as it is my drive to school car. It does have a history of misfires for the car. There are no other symptoms or problems at the time besides the rough driving at times. Should I get a 3rd opinion or Drive it as is unless there are other problems. If so what problems should I look out for.
I would sell that car if you have the opportunity. The Chevy Cruze was a rolling pile of garbage. I'm surprised yours was able to last 213k miles.
If your car didn't overheat, that's more than likely not your problem.
Your transmission is worn out.
You can check the head gasket yourself without going to a mechanic. Rent a head gasket tester from AutoZone and buy the blue fluid. Follow the instructions on the tool.
@justin-shepherd sorry I meant 113!
