[QUOTE="PoManNox, post: 23828, member: 8300"] Agreed. If you really keep on top of your maintenance / oil changes you should be good to go for closer to 150K+. Thing is, you really have to be diligent in listening for startup noise when the tensioners max out. Your average clueless Equinox owner isn't so on top of things and runs the engine with timing chain rattle for too long, sending that metal throughout the engine. Or they just plain run it till things fail catastrophically. [/QUOTE]
