    Originally Posted By: Nyquist I had the AC issue on my Equinox as well. There's an update for the HVAC control module. I think it has something to do with zero drift stuff on the sensor dial. There has been several issues. Another one had to do with the harness connection.

    2011 Terrain GM 2.4L Dexos 5w-30 8066mi on oil

    My thought too. I've typed up a letter with my concerns and have asked GM to respond to them. I'm going to drop the oil report and the letter off today. Originally Posted By: satinsilver My only other advice would be to talk with the service MANAGER on this since it's not routine service and...

    2011 Terrain GM 2.4L Dexos 5w-30 8066mi on oil

    I have had all the service done at a dealer here in town. I wanted to use their oil etc. because of things like this. I would have bought the car there but I couldn't get their d*mn sales department to give me a price, so I bought out of town. I always had good service on my Yukon from this...

    2011 Terrain GM 2.4L Dexos 5w-30 8066mi on oil

    Just wanted to thank everyone that has commented. Over at the Equinox/Terrain Forum there seems to be some positive posts on how GM is handling this. There are several GM factory people that monitor the forum and they have offered help in getting any "kinks" worked out with the dealer.

    2011 Terrain GM 2.4L Dexos 5w-30 8066mi on oil

    I agree with the numbers, entirely too high. I would disagree with the attorney for now. Up to this point I haven't expressed my concerns to the dealer or GMC. They deserve time to look into my issue. I will give them time to respond. Having been somewhat in the industry, I know when a customer...

    2011 Terrain GM 2.4L Dexos 5w-30 8066mi on oil

    No appreciable oil consumption. Certainly no oil added between changes. When I took the oil sample through the dipstick tube, the oil wasn't low. Originally Posted By: jkhawaii how the oil consumption? there is a fix for all of the problems with this engine. new pistons and rings, new high...

    2011 Terrain GM 2.4L Dexos 5w-30 8066mi on oil

    You may be right, 6,000 would probably be better. GM did flash the computer some time back to lessen the perhaps overly "optimistic" oil change interval. Originally Posted By: pbm I think that 2.4 is a DI engine and the UOA indicates thinning and fuel dilution. I wouldn't go over 5K on an OCI...

    2011 Terrain GM 2.4L Dexos 5w-30 8066mi on oil

    We have noticed an occasional rattle when starting the engine but it's not consistent. I wouldn't say it's noisy at idle but I was listening to it today and I could hear a few slight "rattles". Of course this can drive you crazy trying to judge if it's noisier today than a month ago...

    2011 GMC Terrain 2.4L 4cyl GM-Dexos 5w-30 8,066mi on oil, 24,976 on vehicle. (3rd oil change). Oil/filter changes have been done by the dealer. Unfortunately, I didn't have the first two oil changes analysed. I have ran the oil until I usually get to about 20% of oil life as indicated by the...
