I have a 2013 sonic LT 1.4t automatic. Only mod I have is an injen intake. My turbo intermittently cuts out. It will be fine for a week straight and then it will have a random bad day and the car will have a hard time accelerating. When it happens, I will make the car downshift and it will start working again for 20 minutes or so until it cuts out again. This has been happening for a couple months now. Even though this happens quite often now and my car just doesn't feel like it has the performance it once did, I never get any underboost lights or anything whatsoever. No lights or codes ever. I'm going to call the dealer sometime in the next couple days but does anyone else's turbo randomly cut out without causing any codes or lights on their dash? I wonder if I were to put the stock intake back on if I would get the underboost code everyone else gets. I think I'm going to try it tomorrow. We'll see what happens.
Hey there,
Very sorry for these concerns with your Sonic. If you need any additional assistance into the dealership, please let me know in a private message. Be sure to provide your VIN, current mileage, contact information and your preferred dealership.
