Engine Q&A 2003 Chevrolet Tahoe

  • Why does the check engine light come on when I start my Tahoe? Generally, your check engine light turning on upon ignition is not a bad thing. This is just your Tahoe testing its circuits. The light should go off shortly. Bring your vehicle in if it doesn't.
  • Are Chevrolet Tahoe engine noises bad? Strange engine sounds can be a sign something’s off in your Chevrolet Tahoe. Tapping or knocking could mean you need an oil change. 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 might be a sign of brake problems rather than engine issues.
  • What could damage my Chevrolet Tahoe 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 accelerating too quickly, too soon. Protect your engine’s performance and efficiency by distancing yourself from these habits.
  • Is it okay to put water in my Chevrolet Tahoe radiator? It’s not recommended you put water in your Tahoe 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.
