Engine Q&A 1987 Volkswagen Quantum

  • Why does the check engine light in my Quantum turn on when I start my car? Generally, your check engine light turning on upon ignition is not a bad thing. This is just your Quantum testing its circuits. The light should go off shortly. Bring your vehicle in if it doesn't.
  • Why does my Volkswagen engine sound different? Unusual noises can signal a problem with your Volkswagen Quantum engine. Knocking or tapping could be a symptom of low oil. Whistling sounds could mean you have an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing can be traced back to a loose fan belt, and grinding might be a sign of brake problems rather than engine issues.
  • What could damage a Volkswagen engine? [ordered-list-1-item-3-1]Are you unknowingly damaging your Volkswagen Quantum engine? Certain driving habits can damage your engine and should be avoided. These habits include 'running on fumes,' revving the engine while still 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.
  • Is it okay to put water in my Volkswagen Quantum 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 Quantum when you’re out of coolant, having water in the coolant reservoir is better than nothing.
