Based upon problems people have been having with some of the 4 cyl. '11 models, I would buy either a 6 cyl. '11, or a 4 cyl. '12. My '10 4 cyl. has been flawless.hyperman said:Hi
I am new to the forum. We are considering a 2011 or 2012 Equinox. Test drove the 4 and 6 cylinder. Leaning towards the 4 but would like to hear from 4 owners on whether they regret purchasing it.
Thanks
Mostly the problems are on the left and the right side of the engine but the real problems begin with everything in-between ;Dhyperman said:Can you tell me what kinds of issues people have been having with the 2011 4 cylinders?

Me too, most of my driving has been during the summer at our summer place. Mileage was ok, not spectactular, but ok. Now that we are home for the winter, I checked today and my avg MPH was 16 and my MPG was 19. This summer my MPH was in the 30 or 40s and the MPG correspondingly higher.RNOX said:Test drive both .. See which one you like. I prefer a 4 cyl for the gas mileage and lower inital cost. The HP is high for a 4. When checking the mileage make sure you look at the average speed. When I fill up the tank I reset the trip and the average speed setting on the DIC. I almost always overestimate my average speed.
