2012 Chevrolet Express 1500 Engine Q&A

  • Why does the check engine light come on when I start my Express 1500? It’s usually normal for your check engine light to turn on upon ignition. It’s just your Express 1500 firing up its circuits. The dash light shouldn't stay on. If it does, you might want to bring your vehicle in for service.
  • Why does my Chevrolet engine sound different? Unusual noises can signal a problem with your Chevrolet Express 1500 engine. Tapping or knocking could mean you're low on oil. Whistling could mean a belt is misaligned or there's an intake leak. 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.
  • What could damage my Chevrolet Express 1500 engine? Certain driving habits can hurt your engine. These habits include driving on an empty fuel tank, 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 put water in my Chevrolet Express 1500 radiator? An emergency is the only time you should consider putting water in your radiator. Outside of that, it’s recommended you use a pre-mixed coolant or a 50/50 blend of water and coolant. However, if you need to continue driving your Express 1500 when you’re out of coolant, having water in the coolant reservoir is better than nothing.
  • What can cause the engine in my Express 1500 to suddenly stop? There are different reasons your Express 1500 vehicle engine could suddenly stop. You may be looking at a lack of fuel, faulty sensors, issues with the ignition system, engine overheating, electrical problems, or mechanical troubles.
