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.

Are Chevrolet Express 1500 engine noises bad?

Strange under-the-hood noises can point to problems within your Chevrolet Express 1500 engine. Knocking or tapping could be a symptom of low oil. A high-pitched whistle could signal an intake leak or misaligned belt. 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 Express 1500 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 add water to 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?
