Engine Q&A 1996 Chrysler Town & Country

  • Why does my Town & Country’s check engine light come on when I start it? Generally, your check engine light turning on upon ignition is not a bad thing. It’s just your Town & Country 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 Chrysler engine sound different? Strange under-the-hood noises can point to problems within your Chrysler Town & Country engine. Tapping or knocking could mean you're low on oil. A high-pitched whistle could signal an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing can be traced back to a loose fan belt, and grinding might be coming from the brakes, not the engine.
