Why does the check engine light come on when I start my Magnum?

Are Dodge Magnum engine noises bad?

Unusual noises can signal a problem with your Dodge Magnum engine. Tapping or knocking could mean you're low on 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 coming from the brakes, not the engine.

What could damage my Dodge Magnum engine?

Can I use water in my Dodge Magnum radiator?

It’s not recommended you put water in your Magnum 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.
