Engine Q&A 1998 Hyundai Tiburon

  • Why does the check engine light come on when I start my Tiburon? It’s usually normal for your check engine light to turn on upon ignition. This is just your Tiburon testing its circuits. The light should turn off in a bit, but come see us if it doesn't.
  • Why does my Hyundai engine sound different? Unusual noises can signal a problem with your Hyundai Tiburon engine. Knocking or tapping could be a symptom of low oil. Whistling could mean a belt is misaligned or there's an intake leak. Squealing can indicate a loose fan belt, and grinding might be a sign of brake problems rather than engine issues.
  • What could damage my Hyundai Tiburon engine? Certain driving habits can damage your engine and should be avoided. These habits include 'running on fumes,' revving your engine while the vehicle is in Park, or slamming the gas pedal while the engine is still cold. Help sustain your engine’s performance and efficiency by staying miles away from these bad driving practices.
  • Can I use water in my Hyundai Tiburon 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.
  • Why did my Tiburon engine suddenly stop? Reasons your Tiburon car engine may suddenly stop include engine overheating, electrical troubles, mechanical issues, ignition system problems, faulty sensors, and low fuel.
