    Hi aj72. Ally's current base lease rate for a 36 or 39 month lease of a 2011 Chevrolet Equinox 4-cylinder AWD with 15,000 miles per year is 1.8%. I haven't seen the residual values for this month yet, so I'll have to look into that for you. Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum

    We just purchased a 2011 Nox FWD 2LT, Mocha, with Two tone brown/black Leather, Roof, 18's and Power Liftgate. We paid $28,336, which was just under TMV ($28,357). I would rate our overall experience a 6 out of 10, however, not due to our dealer or salesman, whom we both liked and would recommend again, but due to the industry practice known as "not giving a sh*t about what the customer ...

    I don't recall seeing any posts where someone's problem was unresolved because GM Cust Svc. got involved. Probably most issues are fake, so when customer service asks for the information, the complainers run and hide. Not saying this is true in all cases! Certainly some cases are valid. It would be nice to have some follow up though, so we could sift through what's real and what's fake.

    87 octane does not result in pinging here. Considering the number of units sold, there's only a small percentage of owners claiming a problem with pinging. I stop every Nox I see, whether it's in a parking lot or a neighbor, to listen to the motor and ask the owner about this and I have not heard the sound or the complaint from anyone yet.

    I'm not sure about the "ping/thunk" thing, but the engine pinging is caused by them telling you that you can use 87 octane gas, when really you can't. Their spark timing is too agressive for 87 octane but they did it to help improve fuel mileage. There are two solutions: use 89 octane or higher, or there is a computer update that changes the spark timing. But you also lose 1-2 ... Read More

    I've had "lean" codes on my Taurus for years. Haven't been able to find the source and don't care to enlist a "professional" to charge me hundreds of dollars to guess at what it might be. I'll get it sooner or later. In the meantime the car doesn't seem to exhibit any driveability problems (although my fuel economy MIGHT be affected ... not even sure about that). Lean codes can be ...

    We now have 4500 miles on our 2011 Equinox and we love it. We get right at 22 mpg city and 28 hwy. ( not the 32 posted but good for this class ). We, too, had looked at the CRV, but prefered the room, features and quality of the Chevy. Everything is well laid out and where it should be. Best looking crossover out there!

    If the dealer keeps the rebate you would have to sign an authorization in which you consent to the dealer getting the $1500. Call Chevrolet customer service Monday thru Friday and they can explain the program. You could also call another Chevy dealer and speak to a salesman. Tell him you are considering buying an equinox and are there any restrictions on the rebate and zero percent.

    I sure do chicago_cars. Ally's October base lease rate and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2011 Chevrolet Equinox LT2 AWD with 15,000 miles per year are 4% and 49%, respectively. The residual value for a lease with 12,000 miles per year would be 2% higher. Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum

    Hi 123charlie. Here's the information that you're looking for. Ally's October base lease rate and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2011 Equinox LT1 FWD with 12,000 miles per year are 4.0% and 50%, respectively. The numbers for an otherwise identical 39 month lease are 4.0% and 48%. I'm not sure if Ally offers 10,000 mile per year leases on Chevrolet models, but if it does its residuals ... Read More

    Picked up my 2011 2LT equinox a couple of days ago. 6 cyl. and fairly well loaded extras. Met my expectations in quality and fit. Ride is excellent. The engine also did not dissapoint me. Quite, smooth and excellent pickup. Transmission is seamless.
