2013 Volkswagen Routan Engine Q&A

  • Why does the check engine light come on when I start my Routan? It's okay if your check engine light comes on when you first start your vehicle. It’s just your Routan firing up its circuits. The light should go off shortly. Bring your vehicle in if it doesn't.
  • Are Volkswagen Routan engine noises bad? Strange under-the-hood noises can point to problems within your Volkswagen Routan engine. Knocking or tapping could be a symptom of low oil. Whistling could mean a belt is misaligned or there's an intake leak. Squealing can indicate a loose fan belt, and grinding might be a sign of brake problems rather than engine issues.
  • What could damage my Volkswagen Routan engine? Certain driving habits can hurt your engine. These habits include driving on an empty fuel tank, 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 Volkswagen Routan 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 Routan engine to suddenly stop? If your Routan car engine suddenly stops, it could be due to overheating, low fuel, a faulty ignition system, sensor problems, electrical system trouble, or mechanical issues.
