2004 Porsche Carrera GT Engine Q&A

  • Why does the check engine light in my Carrera GT turn on when I start my car? It’s usually normal for your check engine light to turn on upon ignition. This is just your Carrera GT testing its circuits. The light should go off shortly. Bring your vehicle in if it doesn't.
  • Why does my Porsche engine sound different? Strange engine sounds can be a sign something’s off in your Porsche Carrera GT. 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 could be a sign that something is wrong with your brakes — not the engine.
  • What could damage my Porsche Carrera GT engine? Certain driving habits can damage your engine and should be avoided. These habits include 'running on fumes,' 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.
  • Can I use water in my Porsche Carrera GT 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 Carrera GT when you’re out of coolant, having water in the coolant reservoir is better than nothing.
  • Why did my Carrera GT engine suddenly stop? There are different reasons your Carrera GT vehicle engine could suddenly stop. You may be looking at a lack of fuel, faulty sensors, issues with the ignition system, engine overheating, electrical problems, or mechanical troubles.
