    Fuel Grade and Benefits - Shell

    I'm the guy who runs premium Costco top tier gas almost exclusively and I am convinced my 170 HP four banger is now cranking at least 177 HP and kick the doors in of the newer 175 HP Noxes out there! And I'll get better mileage while doing it! Seriously, it works for me, and in Canada, Costco...

    My 2024 Equinox Premier

    I am originally from the Allentown area, but the guy was likely traveling - so let's let's blame it on a Jersey guy! :ROFLMAO: Red would look good on most any color, at least to me. Except maybe red.

    2022 Equinox RS

    I realized I never posted pics of my 22 RS. Included pics of my red calipers, sadly in less that a year the epoxy paint is chipped from stone. Put 4 coats on em, but still not enough. The interior pic shows the red outline tray/cupholder inserts. I like my winter wheels (17") better than the...

    My 2024 Equinox Premier

    I had found the red door badges on Amazon - I went looking when someone tried to steal the badges off my driver's side door. They only got the 3 strands of filament line halfway through the X when they must have been scared off. I was going to put a sign on the car saying to ask me for the 20 or...

    My 2024 Equinox Premier

    Nice looking Redline! My 2013 was black, so i get ya on keeping it clean. Welcome to the Red door badge club! I call it that because my 22 RS came with the red door badges and appears to be a factory mistake. Only Redline models get the red outline door badges. I've looked at tons of RS models...

    Dark Forum Background

    if you highlite a link with your mouse, it will make it easier to read. Not a fix, but a work around that I use often.

    Is there a "rarely known/used features" thread anywhere? (New 2024 premier)

    After 2 years I still find features I did not know about, either from reading online, or by happenstance. LOL When I got the car I sat in the driveway, during December in Canada, idling the engine and trying things as I read the manual. After a few hours I got a headache and gave up - just too...

    How to change icons in the "Application Tray"

    I have the 8 inch w/Nav and my manual says this: Shortcut Tray The shortcut tray is near the bottom of the display. It shows up to four applications No mention of being able to modify the applications that reside there. I have phone, nav, audio and home. I will have to try and see if it lets me...

    Umbrella pockets

    Right in front, and below, of the umbrella slot is a cupholder. I keep a tall travel water bottle I bought from Costco in there and it keeps the umbrella from sliding out. On the passenger side, my wife doesn't like the water bottle there, so I threw her umbrella in the back LOL

    Used 2023 LT - 600 mile review

    1) I agree, I had the 3.6 in my 2013 so it was a bigger change, but I adapted a lot easier than expected. Of course, your 2023 has 5 more ponies than my 22 lol 2) I have the Bose system, so don't have this issue, it kicks ass. Better than the 2013 premium audio, which was Pioneer. I find the...

    Grill chrome peeling/window warpage

    I have not yet tried to remove any of the black chrome, but it is just a wrap so it shouldn't be too hard - I hope. I have never tried to remove a wrap before, but maybe a heat gun or hair dryer would help loosen it?

    Blind Spot Monitor audible alarm?

    A shame there is no legal recourse when a salesperson lies to you - or is there? Lesson to be learned here, be sure to ask the salesperson to demonstrate the feature they claim works. If they give you a hard time, they are not the one you want to buy a car from.

    Grill chrome peeling/window warpage

    I've had the front grill replaced once due to the "black chrome" peeling and it is peeling again worse than the first time. Unfortunately my b2b warranty is over. The black chrome strip on the rear bumper lasted @ 5,000 km before peeling, that was replaced twice under warranty. I just had...

    Blind Spot Monitor audible alarm?

    Looked in my OM, no audible alert to turn on (or off). The flashing in the mirror is pretty reliable, just get used to checking that before any lane change. Best to verify with your eyeballs, just in case tho.

    Really bad gas milage

    My only complaint about the AWD switch is that it's location is poor and sometimes accessing the storage compartment in front of it, I push the button turning it on or off. I've learned to check it, especially if I fill up the tank and notice slightly less mpg. Not to the extent of the OP, but...

    Power locks

    if you've already replace the battery in the key fob, perhaps the car's battery is getting weak. Things like this happen if the battery is 3 -5 years old.
