So today I’m working on a 2005 Chevy equinox that has a 3.4 V6 in it this is also gonna be the same information for any Saturn Vue that has the 3.4 V6 and any Pontiac torrent that has the 3.4 V6 you might want to watch the whole video because there’s quite a bit of information in here that you may or may not know changing the thermostat itself is actually very simple it’s the burp procedure that is actually complicated and or misunderstood. So if you have a 2003 Chevy equinox 2004 Chevy equinox 2005 Chevy equinox 2006 Chevy equinox 2007 Chevy equinox with the V6 engine this is the procedure for burping it and replacing the thermostat this will also work on the 2003 Saturn Vue 200 so if you have a 2003 Chevy equinox 2004 Chevy equinox 2005 Chevy equinox 2006 Chevy equinox 2007 Chevy equinox with the V6 engine this is the procedure for burping it and replacing the thermostat this will also work on the 2003 Saturn Vue or 2003 Pontiac torrent 2004 Pontiac torrent 2005 Pontiac torrent 2006 Pontiac torrent 2007 Pontiac torrent. God bless have a great day

What’s #1 stabilitrak cause?
I'm stuck at removing the bottom bolt. What size wrench did you use? I tried a 1/2 ratcheting wrench but it's not gripping
Hey so um, quick question. What’s the best way/ how to do a full radiator flush??
Thanks for the video!
You're the best thank you so much!
Thanks new sub and I fixed my recently acquired Pontiac Torrent! No more overheating and doesn’t need head gaskets
Good job you don't show thermostat being removed or placed in , that may be helpful
I had no heat in my car before watching this video. I am so glad I stumbled upon this.
Thank you. I finally found out how to get the air lock out, I kept hearing the term bleeder valve but didn't have a clue where it was, this video was greatly informative to me. Thank you a million times
Awesome I'm hopeing this works I've taken my car to 2 mechanics both says nothing is wrong with my cooling system but sometimes I notice my temp gage starting to rise not past 1/2 way mark but I will open hood smell antifreeze smell and see a drip of coolant coming out driving on engine but I turn car off and back on and it doesn't continue to overheat I have suggested that it seems like a pressure leak to me as it only seems to come out of a weak spot on my hoses I think it's my thermostate
You skipped the hard part I couldn’t barely get the thermostat housing off do to exhaust
And then you replace the belt because it squeals to no end with all the antifreeze being dumped on it.
Hello! My heats out and it causes the internal windshield to fog up all the time. When you switch cool to heat, you don’t hear the vents change at all. I’ve put coolant in the designated spot 2weeks ago and now again just yesterday due to it being low again. When I turn car on and slowly open the top that you put the antifreeze, it starts to boil.
Would a failing thermostat cause lukearm heat on this car I have that problem on mine on a 2007 with the 3.4 and I don’t wanna go for replacing the heater core cause that’s a terrible job to do but I’ll try this first?
But now don’t you have too much coolant in the overflow tank?
Hey I have a question what is the hose coming out of the back of the thermo housing? It kinda Y's off to the reservoir
Great video, thanks for sharing
I see your Service Stabiltrak light was on too. Lol I literally hate this car for that reason alone!
Do i need the funnel
Thank you. Everything I needed to know and the job went smoothly and quickly.
You should also say to run the vehicle with the bleeder screw open for about 15 to 20 minutes..did that for my 06 equinox..I now have heat again..
