Asked by Tkblade May 31, 2021 at 01:10 AM about the 2008 Chevrolet Equinox Sport FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I was driving home from an hour long trip yesterday the vehicle stopped at the
top of a small incline and i believe the engine shut down I could not get it to fire
back up it tried to crank but nothing during this trip when accelerating above
2000 rpms mainly at low speeds the vehicle felt shaky like a vibration I thought
it might be a motor mount or something I've also been worried about my vehicle
timing but had not had a chance to try and fix the issue I've had DTC p0017 and
P0018 for some time now also.

I had a few people stop to help when I broke down and when I showed them results for my DTC obd reader it had 02 sensors issues at a few points they were adamant that it was the o2 sensor so far I've removed the upstream sensor and will take the downstream sensor off tommorow I tried testing them with a multimeter and could get no reader for the upstream on the heater wires (white) and no reading on the actual sensor wires after heating the tip of the sensor with a torch also the sensor was super white like a chaulky ashy white caked on the tip of the sensor which I wire brush cleaned before attempting my tests any advice or suggestions from you or anyone else? I will probably start looking into the timing chain/belt tommorow and the fuel pump and downstream O2 sensor I also have more odb protocols I've run on my equinox if anyone wants to take a look to try and help. I really appreciate everyone's help and time on this question it really does help alot I've got a family and got laid off two months ago and unemployment isn't going through , wife's birthday was yesterday I mean damn I need to write a country song I'm just waiting on my dog to run away now lol.
