Inspected and Found – We were able to hear the noise when we started the engine. Noise is definitely either timing chain slack or a VVT camshaft phaser. Would need to replace at minimum the chain tensioners and phasers. Once apart we would also inspect the chains and guides which may also need to be replaced.

Wheel Alignment
Inspected & Found – Front brakes have approximately 10% remaining and are wearing unevenly, will need new calipers, pads and rotors. Rear brakes have approximately 50%. Transmission fluid is getting dark and should be flushed. All other fluids, serpentine belt and hoses are in good shape at this time. The power steering pressure hose is leaking and should be replaced. The transmission cooler line connectors in the radiator are leaking which would require a new radiator to fix.

Inspected and Found – We found no communication to the PCM. There was a blown 20A fuse for the PCM. We replaced it and now the vehicle starts. The ignition lock cylinder feels very crunchy and it will need to be replaced. Neither battery will charge, and come up as replace on the tester. We also found a blown fuse for the TCM and replaced it. We installed a tester battery and now have communication with the TCM and PCM. The vehicle starts and runs, but will not move when put in gear and there is a code of P0701 (Transmission Control System Range/Performance). We will need more diagnosis time to find the fault causing this code. With further inspection we found that there is no line pressure in the transmission. The transmission and transfer case appear to have been recently replaced. This may be covered by warranty with the original installer.

Inspected and Found – The key off draw was measuring at .005-.006 of an amp. After sitting for awhile, this spiked up to .303 of an amp. We traced this back to the instrument cluster that was installed in 2021. This part is under warranty, but the labor is out of warranty.

2012 Chevrolet Equinox

Service Date

Services Performed
Inspected and Found – The main noise was a result of the driveline center support bearing fasteners needing to be re-torqued to specifications. After doing this, the main noise is gone. There is still a slight clunk from the rear of the vehicle just as it comes to a stop. This is likely from a shock bushing, or another bushing, but can not pinpoint it at this time. It will need to develop to verify and remedy this. There is also a slight shake above 50mph. Recommend having the tires re-balanced.

Inspected and Found – The window regulator was removed before arrival. The regulator appears to have been ran all the way down after removal, and has kinked the cable. The initial failure of the window was the window switch. The front sway bar end links are very worn out, likely causing the clunking noise that is being heard. Recommend replacing them. Also recommend taking the vehicle to an alignment shop to check for damage.
WINDOW REGULATOR – Remove & Replace – Rear,Power Windows,Each
STABILIZER BAR CONTROL LINK – Remove & Replace – Both
TAIL LAMP ASSEMBLY – Remove & Replace – Passenger Side
Inspected & Found – All of the vehicle fluids, tune up items, belts and coolant hoses are in good condition. Front brakes are at about 20%. Rear brakes are at about 70%. We replaced the right taillight assembly due to being broken. The left taillight should also be replaced but was not available at this time. The reverse light was full of water, so we drilled a small drain hole.
