Questions About 2001 Toyota Solara Engines

  • Why does my Solara’s check engine light come on when I start it? Generally, your check engine light turning on upon ignition is not a bad thing. This is just your Solara testing its circuits. The dash light shouldn't stay on. If it does, you might want to bring your vehicle in for service.
  • Are Toyota Solara engine noises bad? Strange engine sounds can be a sign something’s off in your Toyota Solara. Tapping or knocking could mean you need an oil change. A high-pitched whistle could signal an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing can be traced back to a loose fan belt, and grinding might be coming from the brakes, not the engine.
  • What could damage a Toyota engine? [ordered-list-1-item-3-1]Are you unknowingly damaging your Toyota Solara engine? Certain driving habits can hurt your engine. These habits include driving on an empty fuel tank, revving your engine while the vehicle 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 add water to my Toyota Solara radiator? It’s not recommended you put water in your Solara radiator unless it’s an emergency. Under normal circumstances, use a 50/50 mix of water and coolant or a pre-mixed coolant. But, if you need to keep driving while out of coolant, using water is better than driving with an empty coolant reservoir.
