1996 Chrysler Cirrus Engine Q&A

  • Why does my Cirrus’s check engine light come on when I start it? It's okay if your check engine light comes on when you first start your vehicle. This is just your Cirrus testing its circuits. The dash light shouldn't stay on. If it does, you might want to bring your vehicle in for service.
  • Are Chrysler Cirrus engine noises bad? Strange under-the-hood noises can point to problems within your Chrysler Cirrus engine. Knocking or tapping could be a symptom of low oil. Whistling sounds could mean you have an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing can indicate a loose fan belt, and grinding could be a sign that something is wrong with your brakes — not the engine.
  • What could damage my Chrysler Cirrus engine? Certain driving habits can hurt your engine. These habits include driving on an empty fuel tank, revving the engine while still in Park, or accelerating too quickly, too soon. Help sustain your engine’s performance and efficiency by staying miles away from these bad driving practices.
  • Can I use water in my Chrysler Cirrus radiator? While it’s not recommended, you can use water in your Cirrus radiator in emergencies. Normally, you should only use a 50/50 mix of coolant and water or a pre-mixed coolant. However, if you are completely out of coolant and must continue driving, it’s better to have water in your coolant reservoir than nothing.
  • What can cause a Cirrus engine to suddenly stop? If your Cirrus car engine suddenly stops, it could be due to overheating, low fuel, a faulty ignition system, sensor problems, electrical system trouble, or mechanical issues.
