Questions About 2006 Chevrolet Equinox Engines

  • Why does the check engine light in my Equinox turn on when I start my car? It’s usually normal for your check engine light to turn on upon ignition. This is just your Equinox testing its circuits. The dash light shouldn't stay on. If it does, you might want to bring your vehicle in for service.
  • Are Chevrolet Equinox engine noises bad? Unusual noises can signal a problem with your Chevrolet Equinox engine. 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 might be a sign of brake problems rather than engine issues.
  • What could damage my Chevrolet Equinox engine? Some driving habits are not so great for your engine. These include driving on a near-empty gas tank, revving the engine while still in Park, or slamming the gas pedal while the engine is still cold. Protect your engine’s performance and efficiency by distancing yourself from these habits.
  • Can I use water in my Chevrolet Equinox radiator? It’s not recommended you put water in your Equinox 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.
