Yup, that is the one. -in the search bar on Amazon, just key in "Stymart" and then select the correct line item. It will be illustrated as an "Overall pick".

I believe it is orifice (or restrictor) sandwiched between the cylinder head and engine block. And as such, I think there is nothing about it that should require replacement. On the other hand, there are a couple of "fresh air" valves in the circuit, one on each bank of the camshaft case. And...

well, I'm confused: According to everything I've read, this engine does not have a PCV valve. (same car, same engine, same year as mine)

good question, and good reply. Some day when I'm at my dealership, I'll have to discuss it with them. Luckily I have known the service dept manager and several of their staff pretty well for many years through many vehicles. So I feel totally safe in discussing it with them. And of course just...

Good question and comments. And the way to make the parasitic draw (which all later model vehicles have, with may variables, and some worse than other) a non-issue is to plug in your battery maintenance device at the end of every day. -not just for periods of non-use. When a battery is...

Okay, so I finally purchased and installed the Auto Stop Start Eliminator from Amazon (under $20 including shipping and tax) for our 2019 Equinox. And just as others have reported, it works absolutely perfectly. If you examine each of the connectors closely, you will find that there are very...

RE: "I do have a question though. With AWD on, do the shafts spin all the time or only when needed?" -per Jack T, above- Yes, with the AWD light on, the clutches are engaged and the rear drive shaft is turning. -and there will, of course, be some small amount of additional power used in the...

I will share exactly what my main frustration is with the auto stop/start system: Everyone should know that no system or component parts will last forever. With this particular system, just like all others, there is an average number of expected operational cycles before failure. So by utilizing...

FWIT, there have been plenty of seal failures on the High Pressure Pumps used on these Direct Injection engines. And the way it is discovered is excessive fuel in the oil. My gosh, if you can actually smell the gasoline, then I'd say you had better check that pump immediately !! -and hope its...

-LOVE your username !! Okay, my short answer is simply this: Never use the "D" position on the transmission selector. We have had our 2019 now for three years, and it has become totally brainless habit for us to always use the "L" position. And assuming that you want to your transmission to...

Hello again Waggs160, seems like other members would have responded by now,,, So, have you resolved the problem yet?

You are certainly welcome John H. From I've read, apparently it was the 2018 thru 2021 model years that lacked the disable switch. -which makes me curious about the 22 and 23 model years. I assume that a the disable button has to be pressed each time the vehicle is started? -which is still...

2019 Equinox LS AWD 1.5T 2015 Impala 2LT 1957 Custom 1/2 T 2002 GMC Sierra 1/2T 4x4

Okay, risking getting chided for commenting on a thread that started about 6 months ago, I really have to ask this question: Why doesn't everyone just use the transmission console shift lever "L-6" position, not the "D"? It works perfectly that way on our 2019. For both the wife and I, it has...

Hello new member. So I must ask, I assume you have more than just one FOB? And if so, is the other one working? Thanks.
