    PSA: 1.4L PCV System Maintenance IS Required

    Reason for writing this: I bought a brand new sonic 1.4L turbo in 2013 and over the last 5 years/100k miles I developed oil residue inside my intake manifold to the point it caused all kinds of minor issues (which I didn’t realize at the time) with my car. The most upfront and noticeable issue...

    Rough idle in gear while stopped...SOLVED EDIT: I started this thread to request guidance/knowledge for my own idle issues after reading all the idle threads here and on google without success. After extensive research of various systems in our 1.4L turbo engine, I've come to the conclusion...
