Questions About 1995 Oldsmobile Silhouette Engines

  • Why does the check engine light come on when I start my Silhouette? Generally, your check engine light turning on upon ignition is not a bad thing. This is just your Silhouette testing its circuits. The light should go off shortly. Bring your vehicle in if it doesn't.
  • Why does my Oldsmobile engine sound different? Strange under-the-hood noises can point to problems within your Oldsmobile Silhouette engine. Tapping or knocking could mean you need an oil change. Whistling sounds could mean you have an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing can indicate a loose fan belt, and grinding could be a sign that something is wrong with your brakes — not the engine.
  • What could damage my Oldsmobile Silhouette 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 pushing 'the pedal to the metal' before the engine has warmed up. 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 Oldsmobile Silhouette radiator? It’s not recommended you put water in your Silhouette 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.
  • What can cause a Silhouette engine to suddenly stop? Your Silhouette car engine could stop suddenly due to low fuel, electrical issues, overheating, a faulty ignition system, mechanical troubles, or sensor problems.
