1987 Oldsmobile Cutlass Salon Engine Q&A

  • Why does the check engine light in my Cutlass Salon 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 Cutlass Salon firing up its circuits. The light should turn off in a bit, but come see us if it doesn't.
  • Why does my Oldsmobile engine sound different? Strange engine sounds can be a sign something’s off in your Oldsmobile Cutlass Salon. Tapping or knocking could mean you need an oil change.
