Hello -

Based on this thread, I guess the Eco-turbo-Cruze will not be EOC friendly unless you know what you're doing :

That being said, I would not pulse and glide with EOC in my TDI on a regular basis. I don't like the fact of requesting max boost for ~10 secs and then immediately have the oil sit in the turbo. I do however EOC if I've been driving lightly in the previous minute or so.
