....I have a feeling that there are not many Equinox owners here that own that generation. Mostly 2010 and up.

I had a 2005 Equinox LT AWD prior to buying my 2010 Terrain and I had this problem also. I had it to the local Chevy garage a number of times and on the last visit they said they had a fix. They replaced the fuel pump. I believe on this vehicle it is located inside the fuel tank. It didn't completely solve the problem, but it did improve the number of times it did it. Also, when starting the vehicle turn the key to the on postion for 3 to 5 seconds before you turn it all the way to the start position. This also helped. Good Luck!

My wife's 05 Nox has the same issue. It's been doing it for along time. Started at 30k. Finally at 43k I told the dealer. They did a fuel injector cleaning. Problem went away and came back at 68k. Just had it done again and it's fine. The. Dealer said it's from crap gas. My wife continues to put saws gas in.
