1991 Cadillac DeVille Engine Q&A

  • Why does the check engine light come on when I start my DeVille? It’s usually normal for your check engine light to turn on upon ignition. This is just your DeVille testing its circuits. The light should go off shortly. Bring your vehicle in if it doesn't.
  • Why is my Cadillac DeVille making engine noise? Strange engine sounds can be a sign something’s off in your Cadillac DeVille. Tapping or knocking could mean you need an oil change. Whistling could mean a belt is misaligned or there's an intake leak. Squealing may be caused by a loose fan belt, and grinding could be a sign that something is wrong with your brakes — not the engine.
  • What could damage my Cadillac DeVille engine? Certain driving habits can damage your engine and should be avoided. These habits include 'running on fumes,' revving the engine while still in Park, or pushing 'the pedal to the metal' before the engine has warmed up. Steer clear of these habits to help protect engine performance and efficiency.
  • Can I use water in my Cadillac DeVille radiator? While it’s not recommended, you can use water in your DeVille radiator in emergencies. Normally, you should only use a 50/50 mix of coolant and water or a pre-mixed coolant. However, if you are completely out of coolant and must continue driving, it’s better to have water in your coolant reservoir than nothing.
  • Why did my DeVille engine suddenly stop? Your DeVille car engine could stop suddenly due to low fuel, electrical issues, overheating, a faulty ignition system, mechanical troubles, or sensor problems.
