The Google Top Quality Store badge, without a subscription. Pay once for this manual; there is no monthly fee and nothing to cancel later.

The difference you get

• Manufacturer data: written by GM, not rewritten by a third-party publisher
• Built for your VIN: only the engine, gearbox and options your Equinox actually has
• A PDF with working hyperlinks: click a reference in a procedure and you land on the wiring diagram, spec or step it points to. Most PDF manuals sold online are flat scans without them
• Wiring included: diagrams, connector pinouts and component locations
• Computer, phone or tablet: no app needed, and you can print the pages you work from
• A Google Top Quality Store, online since 2015

• Factory repair manual: how to take parts out and put them back, the torque for every bolt, fault codes and complete wiring diagrams

The 2017 Equinox belongs to the second-generation Equinox, model years 2010–2017. As the final year of the generation, it has every update made along the way.
