2.4L Ecotech Chevy Equinox Engine Noise/ Smelly A/C. Solved!

This specific car is 2013 Equinox and it had a cracked exhaust manifold. I’m not showing how to replace it. This is just informal video and helps you to diagnose the problem. Thanks.

    I have the same 16’ equinox 2.4 ecotec, I have a noise on cold start that lasts until I start driving. It’s very similar to the noise I hear in your video BUT there is no bad smell even with the AC vents set to outside air. Is there another common thing that would make these engines rattle noise on cold start with a similar sound? The sound is as if there was something hitting the plastic fan blades but a bit more metallic and then goes away

    This engines known to be loud in general after few years of driving. If the manifold has a small crack you won’t smell the exhaust gas yet but the reason why you don’t hear it as much after driving is the manifold expands just a bit enough to cover the crack. If I were you I would drive until the smell comes from events. The other reason is the timing chain rattle. They sound very similar but even if you change the chain it won’t go away. I do recommend timing chain replacement on this engines around 100k miles bc some of them jump timing around this mileage but it isn’t very common.

    Once the manifold heats up it expands and kind of blocks the crack.

    On this channel I don’t show how to change parts bc it takes so much time to record them. It’s only for diagnosing problems so you don’t spent so much money on extra parts that you don’t need.

    It is really easy, there are several videos online, but you just remove the intake, the intake mount and you can access the exhaust manifold. Just a dozen bolts/studs. Some of the bolts are hard to get to and you have to be careful not to drop the bolts and the studs. Job is much easier with one of those electronic socket wrenches.
