The Top 5 Problems with Chevy Equinox (2nd Generation 2010 - 2017)

[@therealogofgaming9507]

Rear main seals on these are notorious for leaking from backup pressure

[@oaden0621]

I put different oil cap that vents at a certain pressure on my equinox to prevent that issue.

My wife’s Edge suddenly gave a ton of codes. It was simple a bad purge valve. 15 minutes to change and 11$ on eBay. I looked like a hero for a simple fix.

[@8Jallin]

What codes?

[@johnvecchio4186]

My wife and I each have an Equinox 2014 and 2017 the 2014 has about 118k on it and the 2017 has 142k only repairs have been the VFT Solenoid’s and rear wheel bearings. We use Mobile 1 full Synthetic oil and charge it every 4k. Maintenance is key.

[@8Jallin]

@@johnvecchio4186 why did you chante the rear Wheel bearings?

[@johnvecchio4186]

@ right side was making a howling sound when you slowed down to a complete stop. I decided to do the other rear one while I was at it.

[@oaden0621]

My engine has been replaced with a used one. I change my oil every 3 to 4 thousand miles instead of what is recommended and it runs perfectly. It also keeps those VVT solenoids from getting clogged. I also put a ventable oil cap on to prevent to rear main seal problem that some people have. ACDelco part # FC219 off of Amazon.

[@AlexTheCarDoctor]

Nice move with the oil cap!

[@fastbusiness]

I just finished replacing the balance shaft chain and timing chain on our 2011 Equinox. Among others, yours was the last timing chain replacement video I watched to learn how to do it. I thank you for posting it, as it helped give me the confidence to do the job for the first time. It runs fine, so I guess I didn't screw up anything while I was in there. It took me a lot longer than you, (maybe 12hr.) because I hadn't done it before and tried to do everything by the book.

[@AlexTheCarDoctor]

I love to hear that my tutorials work out for you guys! Awesome job for getting it done. Equinox should last you a while.

[@NPC2_4_U]

I think you just solved the problem with my daughters car within the first 3 minutes of this video. THANK YOU!!! I will stop back to let you know if it does the trick.

[@Foof0811]

I've got a '14 equinox 2.4 at 100k Only failed component was muffler Heavy maintenance = no problems Oil every 3k Silicone all rubber boots & hoses every year Rust proof every 2 yrs Air filters every 2 yrs Transmission fluid every 40k Coolent every 50k Brake fluid at 60k Avoid revving over 3500rpm Avoid revving over 2k until hitting operating temp Go for a 30 minute drive at highway at least once a week Never let fuel drop below 20%, or 40% in winter That's the recipe for a long life I ran a 2000 chevy impala for 17 years and 350k with the same recipe ❤

[@aramrvs]

@@Foof0811 Love this! Thank you so much!

[@fastbusiness]

There is one other common problem you didn't mention. The intake manifold has an orifice on the engine facing side, in between the intake ports, that functions as part of the pcv system. It is only about 1/16" diameter and commonly gets clogged with sludge. When this happens, the crankcase pressure builds enough to possibly blow out the engine rear seal and create a massive oil leak. It can blow out enough oil that if it happens when driving, the engine will be starved for oil and seize up. Obviously, this can destroy the engine fast. I had the seal blow out on mine but caught it in time to avoid total destruction. To prevent this from happening again, I cleaned out the orifice and installed an oil cap that has a built-in pressure release so if it clogs again it won't blow out the seal (hopefully). Also, I'm going to make it part of the maintenance routine to clean out the orifice once yearly to keep disaster at bay. Again, hopefully.

[@AlexTheCarDoctor]

Thanks for adding this one!

[@thomasmorris302]

There's a you tube video showing how to drill a hole in the intake and hit and enlarge the hole and then just a short screw to seal intake, did it works perfect

[@fastbusiness]

@@thomasmorris302 Thanks for reminding me. I saw that video some time back and thought about it then. I was concerned about cracking the manifold when drilling or when putting in the screw. Do you think that is something to be concerned about?

My 2017 Equinox stopped burning oil after I started doing my own oil changes at home. My wife used to take it to one of those fast lube places and that damn car needed oil EVERY week. DO your own oil changes on this car and do it at 5000 miles. My daughter has the same engine in her car and she was having issues with the car stalling at a stop. I did the VVT's and it was still doing it. With her car I had to buy "better" quality oil and do her oil every 3-4K and that seemed to stop that issue.

[@TashaCollins-n1g]

I have a 2010 equinox that's been broken down since November of 2023. It previously had a crack in the exhaust manifold but still ran fine other than being a little loud and using more gas. In August a message came across my dash saying A/C off due to high engine temp. Never overheated or anything but couldn't use A/C so went to ORiely's to get the codes and they suggested that I have 3 sensors replaced, the camshaft position sensor, 02 sensor & cool temp sensor. Did that & 3 months later i get a message saying engine performance reduced which means it went into limp mode and with the pedal all the way to the floor at best it would go 5 mph. Also prior to that message I had to keep getting my car jumped cuz the battery would die quite often...so got a brand new battery also got a brand new camshaft sensor for the second time put that in, had the alternator tested, it passed, but it's still in limp mode and matter of fact it will not start at all now no cranking or anything no noise whatsoever and I can't even jump it it won't even jump start. And brand new battery was checked & was at 100% when bought one month ago but was at 4% a couple of days ago so am charging it as i type this...possibly a parasitic draw somewhere? Some of the codes are as follows - p228d, p0016, p0013, p0089, p0420. I heard you mention the p0016 in the video. If anyone has any idea what is going on it would be greatly appreciated. I'm a single woman living with my 62-year-old mother and don't really know too much about cars. Thanks so much

I have a 2017 Chevy equinox LT 2.4L engine and the timing chain just broke at 76,000 miles. Fortunately it was parked in the auto dealership and just had the solenoids replaced to begin with. $3,000 later it was fixed. When the chain broke it blew a head gasket and that’s where the expenses went.

I came here because my windshield wipers keep going out, I found out that 2010 - 12 and 14 - 17 have a bad linkage design, I was hoping you knew about that.

When it comes to the 2.4 you are correct but anything above that the 3.0 and the 3.6 are still decently reliable as long as you you do basic engine maintenance I know I suffered from this I bought a Chevy equinox with the 3.0 l engine and it was not maintained as well as it should have been and the engine blew 15 days after the warranty so I was F'd in the A

[@justinyost3627]

Great video I have a 2013 with 60,000 on it no issues never been short a drop of oil buy I change every 3,000. They are also known to have the exhaust and intake sensors fail. Makes me wonder if people ignore that when it occurs and that's what could be causing the. Exsesive oil consumption..lots of theories about the pcv valve also also kinda have noticed it is louder on start up at start up maybe i should check the timing at 60,000

[@thomasmorris302]

Biggest problem extended oil changes and No Dexos oil when done. These are direct injjection so have more carbon build up, if you don't change oil at 3 to 4K than it can't contain all that carbon, rings get stuck, the pcv gets clogged, timing chain tensioner won't hydralic pressure build, timing chains wear out. Oil cools cylinder walls (squirters) activates VVT (those solenoids he mentions), lubes balance shafts, without clean oil you have problems

[@Lincolnator721]

same issues people are having with many Kia and Hyundai GDI engines. the manufacturers recommend (straight from the bulletin) oil changes every 3k to 3.75k miles under "severe usage conditions". which really isn't severe usage to me. i had a 2015 kia soul base. i'm driving a 2016 chevy equinox now. the ride quality, cabin noise and handling is so much better on the equinox, it's crazy

[@fritz4939]

The main issue with the GM Ecotec 2.4L VVT engine is the timing chain tensioner. Even the 3rd generation (with the dome top) is subject to failure - why - I discovered the reason at long last & no it's not shown anywhere on the net. There are a few other mods. that can be done to the assembly at relatively small cost to improve the strength & reliability overall. Always use an AC Delco oil filler car no. FC219 & change the oil every 6,000miles max., with a filer change every 3,000. Only use Bosch filters. Use a good qulaity synthetic 5w-30 C3 motor oil, I use Shell Helix.

[@NathanCarr42]

Transmission, transfer case, and rear differential fluids should all be changed every 20k miles. It states that in the owners manual. With the transmission, you want to do it while at operating temperature if you’re doing it yourself, fyi.

So the 2.4 are given a 7500 mile change programming from manufacturer....this is causing trashed rings letting oil into the combustion chamber, gunking up the spark plugs, those solenoids, and the cat...then .the cracked exhaust manifold from the excessive heat and oil build up in the exhaust system...luckily a shop heard the timing chain around 80k....we are now retiring our 2013.....we have put a lot into it....we at 220000 on ye ohl Roxanne. It ran bone dry before 3k miles on an oil change when it was around 140k.

Love your videos. They are very helpful and thorough. My daughter has a 2012 Equinox with about 195K on it. It was throwing a P2138 and after replacing both throttle position sensors (the gas pedal and the throttle body), it is still throwing the same code. I can clear the code, but as soon as you try to give it more than 50% throttle, it will go into limp mode, say to service Stabillitrak, and throw the P2138. It has a rough idle where it will feel like the engine is bucking back and forth. It sounds like it may need the timing chains replaced, but would that cause it to keep throwing the P2138? Any help would be appreciated.
