Engine Q&A 2011 Dodge Journey

  • Why does the check engine light come on when I start my Journey? Generally, your check engine light turning on upon ignition is not a bad thing. This is a sign that your vehicle is testing its circuits. The light should go off shortly. Bring your vehicle in if it doesn't.
  • Are Dodge Journey engine noises bad? Strange engine sounds can be a sign something’s off in your Dodge Journey. Knocking or tapping could be a symptom of low oil. Whistling could mean a belt is misaligned or there's an intake leak. Squealing may be caused by a loose fan belt, and grinding might be coming from the brakes, not the engine.
  • What could damage a Dodge engine? [ordered-list-1-item-3-1]Are you unknowingly damaging your Dodge Journey engine? Some driving habits are not so great for your engine. These include driving on a near-empty gas 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 add water to my Dodge Journey radiator? Only in emergencies. A 50/50 mix of coolant and water (or a pre-mixed) coolant is recommended. However, if you must keep driving when you're out of coolant, it's better to drive with water in your coolant reservoir than nothing.
