Why does my iM’s check engine light come on when I start it?

Why does my Scion engine sound different?

Unusual noises can signal a problem with your Scion iM engine. Tapping or knocking could mean you're low on oil. Whistling could mean a belt is misaligned or there's an intake leak. Squealing may be caused by a loose fan belt, and grinding could be a sign that something is wrong with your brakes — not the engine.

What could damage my Scion iM engine?

Can I put water in my Scion iM 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 iM when you’re out of coolant, having water in the coolant reservoir is better than nothing.
