How the 2016 compares with nearby years
Against the 2015 Equinox: the oil filter changed (PF457G+PF63 in 2015 vs PF457G+PF63E in 2016). The wiper blade lengths and cabin air filter are the same in both manuals.
Against the 2017 Equinox: The wiper blade lengths, oil filter and cabin air filter are the same in both manuals.
The 2016 Equinox belongs to the 2nd gen, which began with the 2010 model year (MY2016 refresh: new grille, headlights, fascia, taillights; projector headlights standard); generation dates. Parts often carry over within a generation, but the manual for your exact model year is the one to trust.

What the manual does not print
The 2016 Chevrolet Equinox owner's manual does not list battery and oil sizes; for the battery, read the label on the battery fitted to the car, then check the size against the BCI group chart.
Buying the parts for a 2016 Equinox
- Wipers: ask for a 24-inch driver blade and a 17-inch passenger blade, plus a 13-inch rear blade. The manual's 600 mm is 23.6 inches exactly; blade boxes round to the 25 mm trade step. Check that the new blade's connector matches the arm on the Equinox.
- Small bulbs: this manual names 5 replaceable bulb positions. Wedge bulbs such as W5W and 194 differ from twist-socket bulbs such as 7443 or 3157, so match the full number, including suffixes like NA (amber).
- Filters: the part numbers above are the maker's own brands; aftermarket boxes list cross-references to them, so quote the number (oil filter PF457G) when you shop.
Check it on your car
Trim, engine and lighting package change some of these parts, so match the row that names your engine or trim. The facts on this page come from 2 pages of the manual (225, 284). Before you buy, compare the number printed on the old part with the table above. See how this site reads manuals.
