    2024 Equinox AWD Vibration at 35mph

    Does the AWD system have to reach a certain RPM or MPH to engage ? Maybe during the transition to engage, there is some shudder..... Wouldn't explain this for the FWD though...

    What has been your experience with ceramic coatings done by a detailer?

    No experience whatsoever, nor have i heard of it. Where did you buy it-Amazon?

    Electrical issues, need help

    Sometimes a battery will show a good charge, but i don't always trust readings. I like to replace the battery every 3 years. The climate I'm in will kill batteries-- lots of heat and cold.

    I need tires

    If those are aluminum, (not sure).. you can use a aluminum friendly paste to clean up some more. Use a magic eraser on the inside barrel, but don't overdo it

    Is there a "rarely known/used features" thread anywhere? (New 2024 premier)

    Use some 303 aerospace Protectant on rubber seals and as Vern pointed out, critical to keep the seals and area around the drain holes clear of any dirt, debris by the drain holes.

    2015 2.4L oil consumption.

    Valvoline has a new oil called Restore and Protect, it is supposed to help clean pistons, etc. Redeline S-1 fuel system cleaner will help some cleanup also. How many miles do you have on yours? Not sure about the other ecotechs...

    For a iPhone, you need a genuine Apple certified (MFI ?) cable.

    All new 2025 Equinox

    Hoping to trade my wife's 2017 for a new Equinox. Will probably avoid the AWD, even though I love AWD on any car. The 2025 looks awesome-- Chevy hit a homerun on the design !

    Engine problems

    I had a similar problem, I think it was a camshaft sensor that went bad on mine. It would crank, go a few feet, then die. I was right down the street from the dealership, and just made it there the last time.

    2019 Premier 19 inch tire recommendations

    I went with the same size, It's tricky enough to just keep everything going on cars these days.

    2019 Premier 19 inch tire recommendations

    Put some Continentals on my 2017, seemed to grip better than the Michelin Defenders I had on it. The Michelin Primacy ? that came on it went fast... I got mine off Tire Rack- shipped to Discount Tire, mounted and balanced for 95$. I think TR and Discount Tire have some type of partnership

    What has been your experience with ceramic coatings done by a detailer?

    Easy spray on product, and wipe off with good non-scratching microfiber towels... https://www.detailedimage.com/NanoSkin-M54/Graphene-Ceramic-Spray-Coating-P2992/16-oz-S1/ I use it on my wife's Equinox -
