Some issues especially specific to these vehicles:
ABS system failures. You’ll get ABS speed sensor failure codes but it’s actually the entire bearing assembly. There’s a ring made with a magnetic material affixed to the back of the bearing assembly, that’s how the sensor detects wheel speed. This ring is prone to cracking and falling apart on each wheel, the sensors themselves tend to be fine. Even with those fixed, you’ll be chasing gremlins throughout the entire ABS system, it’s not fun.
If you got the 3.0L 6 cylinder engine, beware of timing chain stretching, getting this fixed is expensive and very involved, having a mechanic do it might cost more than what the car’s even worth. The camshaft position sensors on the market are prone to failure, which makes it hard to tell when and if the timing chain actually stretched. An easy way to tell is if both sensors on the same bank are throwing codes.
The oil life indicator within the vehicle is useless, you *have* to be changing the oil about as much as your great-grandpappy says he had to change the oil on his cars just to try and keep the chains from stretching like taffy.

Thanks for the tutorial my GF has a 2016 and this gives me things to look at
Thanks - but I was hoping you'd get into more on specific problems on these cars, some of which are easier to find than others: 1.) wiper transmission failure, 2.) resonator *seam* failure (not just the pinch welds), 3.) DI-related oil consumption and PCV issues (Ecotec 4-cyl), 4.) brake pulsing (rotor warp), 5.) rust at bottoms of the doors from the plastic cladding upward. I know, it's almost like I have one of these.
+bkell1011 Thanks for the tip! We'll pass this info along to our production team.
👍👍 also, the passenger side fender needs some air, it’s all wrinkly!😂
How is this vehicle specific? You can have these issues with any high mileage vehicle.
I was hoping for more equinox specific content. Most of this was general high mileage car stuff. I guess thanks for pointing out the transmission check plug and that the battery is under the PCM though. That's unique.
A1, I have a 2008 Chevy Equinox, I've been trying to find a video explaining how to change the Oil Pan Gasket. I have seen a few other videos that talks about an oil change, but I need something more specific to make sure I'm doing it correctly. I don't want to pay someone $500.00 just tell me the problem that I'm already aware of. Also the engine is leaking oil and it drips on to the serpentine belt. I can't really see well enough between the engine and the tire well, well enough to be able to make an assessment. If you have any suggestions, I would really appreciate it.
You hardly see any of this on Honda Civics. Especially Civics that were well taken care of. One of the best daily drivers OF ALL TIME! Hohoho!! 😎
I have an appointment this morning to look at a 2015 Chevy Equinox with a 2.4L engine. I hear about different things going bad. Fly by wire at throttle body and switches on accelerator pedal. Rear crank seal blown because of bad pcv. What do you think? Thanks.
Did ya ever get it
Please question;I have 2011 equinox ltz with 93000mile,the vehicle is very clean but drove me crazy start stalling and turning off ,I did changed the high pressure fuel pump,intake and exhaust solenoid,oxygen sensor,spark plugs,timing chain and cleaned the throttle body but still doing same!!!! Please I need your advice,thanks.
I'am Your Newest Subscriber Great Videos I Wanta Get A Chevrolet Equinox
Didn’t touch the Ecotec timing chain/water pump?
I second this. Water pump replacement on an equinox please!
+J A We're always cycling through common cars. We'll add this repair to our list! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
Thanks for all important information that we need to know.
Great video. Thank you👍
This isn’t high mileage issue. These are things you should check on any vehicle old or new. Haven’t heard any issues that Chevy had with their equinox with high miles
I got a 2012 equinox 4 cylinder when u start it in the morning it run for about 3 or 4 minutes and goes dead and then you start it up again and it runs all day Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Jesus, what hit this thing. WOW!
Please advise people not to purchase one. PVC, piston, timing chains guides and position sensors(4 cyl)cylinder, transmission. The car is fantastic if it will move. THESE VEHICLES ARE JUNK!
Your video was very thorough, but I'm surprised you didn't mention checking the cabin filter. It's a quick and easy fix and helps with the air entering the vehicle.

I’m looking to buy a 2013 Chevrolet Equinox LT LT2. Has 200,000 miles for $8,000. Is this good purchase? What should I ask the dealer?
That's a lot of miles.. idk if you should go for that. I just bought a 2014 and it has 114,000 and I was a little iffy about that many miles. If it had 200,000 I probably wouldn't have pulled the trigger on it.
Naw! I would not buy that mileage is to high for that price Kelly blue book tell you what the car would be worth. I purchased a 2010 for 3,500 the mileage is still In the 100,000 bracket run well
A bit late to this. If you’re looking at something with this many miles your best bet is Toyota Rav4 or Honda CR-V. I would say Rav4 more. Hondas of this age have CVTs and generally the solid 6-speed auto in a Rav4 will be more durable than the Honda CVT.
@@juanzingarello4005 I’m lokkkmg to buy a 2014 equinox 166k miles for 5500 what your thoughts?
Where’s the equinox specific 7-10 most high mile issues ?
Forgot drive shaft play.
I should have watched this before I got this Chevy equinox 2016 trash😡
unfortunately in the dealers we can't trust charging a lot money for almost shitting job
Wow
I have a 2019 chevy enonix i have 106 thousand miles
Its not going to be worh it. Mine is running at 138k , but theres always something that needs fixing
I own a 2011 at barely 90 000 miles the engine burned 3/4 of its oil i switched for a special oil with special sealing shit in it for oil burner engine now it has 145 000 miles and still going down the road but i agree its far from being the most reliable car
I got 115k on mines
I have 158,000 on mine no issues
@@Louisianasfinestshay what yr?
Poor mileage on the diesel model what gives 140,000 miles.
+chiefordnance We wouldn't be able to diagnose an issue like that here, you may want to have a local mechanic take a look at it. Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
Many of those equinoxes are lucky if they reach high mileage. LoL.
I own one at barely 90 000 miles the engine burned 3/4 of its oil. I payed 7k for it 4 yrs ago
So far I got 115k on mines but I always do the regular maintenance
My 2010 equinox is about to hit 150k
@@chadsheppard3576 what yr?
Biggest issue with Chevy Equinox later models? People actually buy them. Lol
They are junk . I advised my daughter not to buy a 2019, she insisted. A year later, nothing but problems. Won't come out of park , possible bad shift interlock solenoid, engine shuts off at stop lights, what a stupid design, other issues. Stick with a Toyota or Honda
My humble opinion.
Can't even hear him!!
2.4 is the issue😂😂😂 why peps ger conned into the 4cyl turbo an other hype😂😂 ya great motor for cars under 2300lbs 😂😂not SUV's its under steady load for whats it built for .. hmm common sense no longer exist ....drill out 2 of the 3 holes on ur PCV valve an save a $1300 waterpump job , wife got a 2010 eq ltz awd 3.0 an its great .. 140 km Canadian eH !
