Replying to: calypso3 (Dec 14, 2008 6:05 pm) The Equinox would have superb traction with winter tires, I have great traction going forward but not so good braking traction. A set of nokia winter tires 235/60/17 for my LT equinox and it will handle any ice snow covered roads. Just like the weather we are having now.

Replying to: bob36 (Feb 12, 2009 2:48 pm) First, were does the sound seems to be coming from?     Let be tell you what happened with my 05 Equinox, could be the same thing.   There was a humming sound coming from the back and I made some little tests to see what it could be.    When rolling I put the truck in neutral, the sound was still there, rev the motor, the sound didn't change, put the truck in park (motor running), no humming sound. The faster I drove, the higher the sound was. It was a sound like I'd be rolling on tractor tires. Letting the truck roll by itself (on neutral) the sound would change when the truck was slowing down, going down a hill on neutral the sound would change picking up speed.   Had to change a left rear wheel hub bearing. That was it, no more humming sound, it was riding on air.   Hope this helps.
