Why does the check engine light come on when I start my C2500?

It’s usually normal for your check engine light to turn on upon ignition. It’s just your C2500 firing up its circuits. The light should turn off in a bit, but come see us if it doesn't.

Why does my Chevrolet engine sound different?

Strange engine sounds can be a sign something’s off in your Chevrolet C2500. Knocking or tapping could be a symptom of low oil. Whistling could mean a belt is misaligned or there's an intake leak. Squealing may be caused by a loose fan belt, and grinding might be coming from the brakes, not the engine.

What could damage my Chevrolet C2500 engine?

Certain driving habits can damage your engine and should be avoided. These habits include 'running on fumes,' revving your engine while the vehicle is 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.

Can I use water in my Chevrolet C2500 radiator?

It’s not recommended you put water in your C2500 radiator unless it’s an emergency. Under normal circumstances, use a 50/50 mix of water and coolant or a pre-mixed coolant. But, if you need to keep driving while out of coolant, using water is better than driving with an empty coolant reservoir.

What can cause the engine in my C2500 to suddenly stop?

Reasons your C2500 car engine may suddenly stop include engine overheating, electrical troubles, mechanical issues, ignition system problems, faulty sensors, and low fuel.
