Replying to: markk60 (Apr 11, 2009 4:13 pm) If so, this winter I did it 3 times and no problem with the steering or anything else. By the way, the Equinox has an electric steering, no power steering in the Equinox. |

Hey there everyone! I have an 05 Equinox that is a very basic model. I want to change out the factory speakers, because they are now blown. Each time that I go to a manufacturer's website, I get two different sizes for both the front and the rear speakers - 5 1/4" and 6 1/2". Which one is right? If i go with a 5 1/4" do I need to get a bracket? If I go with the 6 1/2" do I need to cut anything?

Replying to: packer3 (May 13, 2009 3:58 pm) But do they make tires in that size (235/60/17) ? When you go in the 17's and up sizes it's a bit harder to find than 15's and 16's The four brands that I mention in my "reply post" do manufacture the requested size. |

I just replaced my Bridgestone Dueler HT 235/60/17 original equipment tires on my 2005 AWD Equinox after 64,000 miles. They still had a decent amount of tread left on them. I ended up replacing them with Firestone Destination LE for $158 each. They were a bit more expensive than the Bridgestones but they are rated better in some surveys. I think they are much quieter. I just hope I can get the same treadwear.

At 49,000 km (29,800 miles) I noticed that I was loosing coolant in my 2005 Equinox, the dealer change my engine head and valve gaskets, it cost me 1,300 $ Since that repair, every time I started the truck (cold start) I ca hear a clinking sound from the engine until it gets warm (the same sound as a muffler cooling off). I called the dealer and he said it was normal and the sound came from the bolts because they were warming up. I told him that it didn't do that when it was new, it's only from the time they worked on it. It's been 2 months and I drove 2,000 km (1,250 miles) since they replaced my gaskets, oil, coolant and bolts ect... and tonight I was checking under the hood because I'm planning a little trip this weekend and guess what, I noticed that my coolant in my reservoir is 2 inches below the normal "cold" level and the color has gone from orange to a brownish color and the plastic of my reservoir is stained with a kind of residue that sticks on the interior of the reservoir. What the hell happened?
