1999 Jaguar Vanden Plas Engine Q&A

  • Why does my Vanden Plas’s check engine light come on when I start it? Generally, your check engine light turning on upon ignition is not a bad thing. This is just your Vanden Plas testing its circuits. The light should go off shortly. Bring your vehicle in if it doesn't.
  • Are Jaguar Vanden Plas engine noises bad? Strange under-the-hood noises can point to problems within your Jaguar Vanden Plas engine. Tapping or knocking could mean you need an oil change. 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 my Jaguar Vanden Plas engine? Certain driving habits can damage your engine and should be avoided. These habits include 'running on fumes,' 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.
  • Is it okay to put water in my Jaguar Vanden Plas radiator? An emergency is the only time you should consider putting water in your radiator. Outside of that, it’s recommended you use a pre-mixed coolant or a 50/50 blend of water and coolant. However, if you need to continue driving your Vanden Plas when you’re out of coolant, having water in the coolant reservoir is better than nothing.
  • What can cause a Vanden Plas engine to suddenly stop? If your Vanden Plas car engine suddenly stops, it could be due to overheating, low fuel, a faulty ignition system, sensor problems, electrical system trouble, or mechanical issues.
