2017 Equinox 2.4 - had engine and cat, O2 sensors replaced 2 months ago. Ran great - then got code for O2 sensor, replaced. Now it runs great a few minutes, then falls on it face - no codes or cel. Mechanic has replaced all sensors and throttle body. It acts like it just turns off then back on or like it runs out of gas then picks back up. We also replaced both fuel pumps. If there is any weird causes we are missing, please share. Thanks Dee

I had the same problems. I replaced the two VVT solenoids and cleaned out the throttle body carbon and gas residue. Fixed mine.

I'm having the same issue. I've cleaned the throttle body and changed the solenoids as well as the spark plugs but still the same issue.

This is serious answer, my 2014 Terrain 2.4 is same as equinox. I bought my Terrain around 3 years ago, dealer had reset the computer. A few days later, every few starts it would stall after about 15-20 seconds. Once it stalled, would run fine and stall on next start. Warm cold did not matter, then it started stalling every start, for 9 months I tried to pin down issue, my 2.4 has 60k original miles, when I bought it, was around 40k. I replaced vvts, plugs, maf, throttle body, ran good fuel system cleaner, new air filter, oil, checked pvc 100% clean. After 9 months seen a guy in YouTube say he had same issue, then one say he added 6-8oz of Bardahl no smoke+ and stopped his stalling, so I tried it, my 2.4 never stalled for 11 months, I changed oil month ago, stall returned right away, added the no smoke stall stopped again. Don't know why it works, but works great. Others tried stp oil treatment and worked also. I just tried bardahl no smoke since original video guy used that. Forgot to add, when computer reset after buying I had a 02 code, replaced 02 also, farthest one from engine. People think it's crazy when I say the oil thickener works, but does and is like $7 and can do 2 to 3 treatments.
