I was getting frustrated with the Start-Stop system and it inconsistencies so I figured out a small modification to permanently disable it. All the information of how the Auto Stop-Start system works is in the GM Service manual. It only takes a bit of tweaking to disable it. The circuit you...

The battery has something to do with it. I ran the battery low in service mode syncing my TPSM and the auto start stop stopped working for a few weeks. I disconnect the battery for a few minutes and after reconnecting it it started to work fine again immediately. (Actually contrary to what the...

Unfortunatly this does not seem to be a simple module failure. May need to see the dealer. Sorry for the bad news DTC P0315 Diagnostic Instructions Perform the Diagnostic System Check prior to using this diagnostic procedure: Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle Review the description of Strategy...

Found my answer .The Equinox comes with passenger tires not SUV tires and the Hankooks are the all seasons

Quick question. What all season tire comes on the 2019 premium. Only pictures I can find is the summer Hankook Ventus.

BTW: I tried numerous mud flaps and they don't help. See the lip along the side near the bottom of your doors. That is the best thing for deflecting dirt away from a car. And most cars now have it built in.

How is the Equinox in the winter for headlights getting covered with road salt and dirt? Just wondering if I should install an after market head light washing kit before I get into the first winter.

Here is a really out of the box idea that I would try but I dont have my Equinox yet. I think the spoiler is bolted to the side mounts . If so extend the bolts and with washers raise the spoiler half an inch so it forces air under to the window like a scoop. It may be "mission impossible"...

I dont have my Equinox yet but had the same problem with my last two square back cars. Seems the spoiler creates a vortex to give you better gas mileage but messes with the rear window. Last car I pulled the spoiler off and it was a lot better. Had to put it on for the tail light so I just...

Tires are consumable parts so i am not really concerned what I will have on the nox for a few summers. Just concerned with the rim size (ie sidewall height) how that affects ride and pothole endurance and long term tire cost. Winter I will have full snows on 18" or 17" steel rims. With the...

I am new to the forum. After test driving this summer my plans are to buy an Equinox early next spring. I have decided on an 2.0 premier which has just about every ting I need with only a few add-ons later next summer. Only thing I am not sure about is the 19" rims and low profile tires. For...
