Questions About 2000 Suzuki Grand Vitara Engines

  • Why does my Grand Vitara’s check engine light come on when I start it? It's okay if your check engine light comes on when you first start your vehicle. It’s just your Grand Vitara firing up its circuits. The light should turn off in a bit, but come see us if it doesn't.
  • Why does my Suzuki engine sound different? Unusual noises can signal a problem with your Suzuki Grand Vitara 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 Suzuki engine? [ordered-list-1-item-3-1]Are you unknowingly damaging your Suzuki Grand Vitara 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 Suzuki Grand Vitara 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.
  • What could cause my Grand Vitara engine to suddenly stop? Reasons your Grand Vitara car engine may suddenly stop include engine overheating, electrical troubles, mechanical issues, ignition system problems, faulty sensors, and low fuel.
