08 Equinox been overheating at idle,in traffic cooling fans were not coming on. Now only 1 does when a/c is on. Checked Relays they're working & fuses good. Shouldn't the other fan come on too? Possible solutions?

I would check the fan that doesn't come on by disconnecting the wire harness and providing power directly.

I have a 2008 AWD equinox with service AWD light on, but not traction control. Im getting code U0102-00 TCCM lost comunication with CAN bus. Where do I begin to solve this problem?

You first want to look to see the status of the code. Is the code current, pending, or permanent? If pending, you will want to clear the code and see if it comes back, same thing with current. If the code is permanent then you would want to start by visually inspecting the wiring harness at the transfer case and the transfer case control module. If there are no visual defects found then you will need to complete a diagnostic procedure to determine if it is the module or the wiring. I would be happy to walk you through this process.

What colour of antifreeze goes in. my 2008 equinox

From the factory you had orange Dexicool. If you have drained the system, I would suggest filling it with the yellow universal. If you are just adding a little, use the orange.

Front rotor is very very stuck, tried hammering

Very common and due to rust. Soak it with WD40 and let stand overnight and then use a large blunt object to knock it loose.

After coasting down a grade,

Assuming that you feel and hear the engine smoothly accelerating while the stutter occurs, you are probably looking at transmission. Torque converter? possibly. A full diagnostic of the transmission is certainly in order as there are a number of things that might cause that condition.

I put used engine in 08 chevy Equanox Junk yard gave me 05 it wont start help

Fuel, compression and spark. Check the above. If you have adequate fuel pressure, reasonable compression and a good spark the engine should start. It may also be a good idea to check for compatibility with your engine control module between a 2008 model year and the 2005 model years.

Equinox brakes ([email protected])

firstly - your symptoms are not directly associated to any brake "failure". The noise is likely related to either a faulty sensor for the abs, the signal/information going to the abs controler is incorrect (not your basic brake function. If your ABS light comes on it is just telling you that the ABS system has been switched off. ABS is there for emergency situations. Your can still has brake function like you had befoore ABS was introduced. You have no need to be concerned as emergency stopping with normal brakes about town would rarely engage ABS. Your dealer "interogates" the ABS controler for fault reports. However, the fault needs to be apparent for this fault report to work. keepit until the ABS light comes on. WITHOUT switching the engine off take it straight to your dealer. switching of may dumpt the fault report so DON'T. Hope this helps.
