Why does the check engine light come on when I start my Sky?

Generally, your check engine light turning on upon ignition is not a bad thing. This is just your Sky testing its circuits. The light should go off shortly. Bring your vehicle in if it doesn't.

Why does my Saturn engine sound different?

Unusual noises can signal a problem with your Saturn Sky engine. Knocking or tapping could be a symptom of low oil. Whistling sounds could mean you have an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing may be caused by a loose fan belt, and grinding might be coming from the brakes, not the engine.

What could damage a Saturn engine? [ordered-list-1-item-3-1]Are you unknowingly damaging your Saturn Sky engine?

Certain driving habits can damage your engine and should be avoided. These habits include 'running on fumes,' revving your engine while the vehicle 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 Saturn Sky 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 Sky when you’re out of coolant, having water in the coolant reservoir is better than nothing.

Why did my Sky engine suddenly stop?

Your Sky car engine could stop suddenly due to low fuel, electrical issues, overheating, a faulty ignition system, mechanical troubles, or sensor problems.
