Questions About 2003 Pontiac Aztek Engines

  • Why does the check engine light come on when I start my Aztek? It’s usually normal for your check engine light to turn on upon ignition. This is just your Aztek testing its circuits. The light should go off shortly. Bring your vehicle in if it doesn't.
  • Why does my Pontiac engine sound different? Unusual noises can signal a problem with your Pontiac Aztek engine. Tapping or knocking could mean you're low on oil. A high-pitched whistle could signal an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing can indicate a loose fan belt, and grinding might be coming from the brakes, not the engine.
  • What could damage a Pontiac engine? [ordered-list-1-item-3-1]Are you unknowingly damaging your Pontiac Aztek 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. Protect your engine’s performance and efficiency by distancing yourself from these habits.
  • Is it okay to put water in my Pontiac Aztek 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.
