Bernardo Silva’s first-half goal appeared to have sent City on their way to a much-needed three points.
But Iliman Ndiaye rifled the Toffees level just before the break, increasing the grumbles at the Etihad.
Erling Haaland was given the perfect opportunity to win the game for Guardiola’s out-of-form side but saw a second-half penalty saved by Jordan Pickford.
The Norwegian has scored just once in his last seven matches and has not found the net in his last four.
And frustrated fans made their feelings known at full time, with audible boos raining down from the terraces.
One fan wrote on X: “City getting booed off yet they all talk about how they’ve been attending games since the Main Road days.”
Another gasped: “City getting booed off, unbelievable how things have changed.”
Guardiola’s side have now won just one of their last 13 matches in all competitions.

They haven’t tasted victory since seeing off Nottingham Forest 3-0 on December 4.
City’s draw does seem them climb to sixth in the table.
But could end the day five points adrift of the top four should results go against them.
Guardiola conceded before the game that his side are at risk of failing to qualify for the Champions League for the first time in 15 years.

He said: “The one team that has been in the Champions League for the past years has been Manchester City.
“Now we are at risk, of course we are. Definitely.”
