Questions About 2012 Mitsubishi Eclipse Engines

  • Why does the check engine light in my Eclipse turn on when I start my car? Generally, your check engine light turning on upon ignition is not a bad thing. It’s just your Eclipse firing up its circuits. The dash light shouldn't stay on. If it does, you might want to bring your vehicle in for service.
  • Are Mitsubishi Eclipse engine noises bad? Strange under-the-hood noises can point to problems within your Mitsubishi Eclipse 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 can be traced back to a loose fan belt, and grinding might be coming from the brakes, not the engine.
  • What could damage a Mitsubishi engine? [ordered-list-1-item-3-1]Are you unknowingly damaging your Mitsubishi Eclipse engine? Some driving habits are not so great for your engine. These include driving on a near-empty gas tank, flooring the gas pedal while the car is in Park, or accelerating too quickly, too soon. Protect your engine’s performance and efficiency by distancing yourself from these habits.
  • Can I add water to my Mitsubishi Eclipse 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.
