2006 Chevrolet Avalanche 2500 Engine Q&A

  • Why does the check engine light come on when I start my Avalanche 2500? It’s usually normal for your check engine light to turn on upon ignition. It’s just your Avalanche 2500 firing up its circuits. The light should go off shortly. Bring your vehicle in if it doesn't.
  • Why does my Chevrolet engine sound different? Unusual noises can signal a problem with your Chevrolet Avalanche 2500 engine. Knocking or tapping could be a symptom of low oil. Whistling sounds could mean you have an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing can be traced back to a loose fan belt, and grinding could be a sign that something is wrong with your brakes — not the engine.

These include driving on a near-empty gas tank, revving the engine while still in Park, or pushing 'the pedal to the metal' before the engine has warmed up. Protect your engine’s performance and efficiency by distancing yourself from these habits.
  • Is it okay to put water in my Chevrolet Avalanche 2500 radiator? Only in emergencies. A 50/50 mix of coolant and water (or a pre-mixed) coolant is recommended. However, if you must keep driving when you're out of coolant, it's better to drive with water in your coolant reservoir than nothing.
